***POSTPONED***
The Corporate Raiders return to Melbourne for a show at the Post Office Hotel. The band is pillaged from a spectrum of alt-country and alt-rock bands, frontman Mick Daley being founding member of northern NSW country rock and roll outfit The Re-Mains, who toured every rodeo and inner city dive in Australia, made three massive tours of Canada and a successful run through Europe.
Drummer Scotty Dog Bennett, once a Re-Main, now steers Melbourne outfits including Shaky Stills and the Michael Meeking band. Bassplayer Sam Fiddian was a member of alt-country darlings the Idle Hoes and plays with Cold Irons Bound. Mark McCartney has been a guitar for hire with Mick Thomas, Crawfish Dave, Jo Meares, and John Dowler’s Vanity project.
Daley’s coming down from the flood zone for the Post Office Hotel show. Bristling with Jobkeeper-acquired gear, he’s keen for a raid on Melbourne’s ivory towers.
