    Description

    The enduring power of nostalgia experienced as a sound and music phenomenon can never be underestimated. Indeed, it is resoundingly embraced by an extremely talented Sydney-based cover band called Never Ending 80s. Their show at Bathurst Panthers brought together farmers, shop owners, Charles Sturt University students and many more locals - who had raided every supermarket and discount store party section in anticipation. The music and theatrics exceeded audience expectations The extremely festive nature of the occasion enabled Bathurst's regional community to bask in the glow of joyful music and movement. The event especially meant something to local farmers and townspeople who are all suffering from the dire effects of a global warming-induced drought.

      DescriptionIn a socially mediated online age in which one has unlimited access to music, bands like the Never Ending 80s take us back to the future reminding us that part of the joy of music is about appreciating it as a live and collective experience. Their performance at Bathurst Panthers was especially important to local farmers and townspeople who are all suffering from the dire effects of a global warming-induced drought. This talented, energetic and life-affirming band gave regional NSW temporary relief from the psychological and financial burden of a climate change powered recession.
