FBi announce June benefit shows

FBi (aka Sydney's GOOD radio station) needs your help. Funds are low. GFC is a cold hearted bitch. K-Ruddlez and his stimulus abilities are weak and thus the station needs to get some dollars throw the doors.

As many of you would already know, FBi recently launched a media campaign called Ask Richard, where they set about getting Richard Branson's attention AND money.

But they aren't putting all of their eggs in a single metaphorical basket and they do have a back-up plan just in case Capt Branso doesn't feel like getting generous. Announcers selling their bodies on street corners? No. But they are doing the next best thing, with the station putting on trillions of gigs all around Sydney in June featured billions of awesome local acts.

The month long 'gig-fest' will climax with a GIANT sized festival on the 26th at Luna Park, featuring BIG names such as Dappled Cities FLY, Muscles and Decoder Ring. Full details on all of the shows listed below can be found over at the FBi webspace.
