Party: A night of Ben Folds Five and Weezer at Badlands Bar

BEN FOLDS FIVE performed by BEN COUSINS FIVE

First conceived in 2012, the trio only managed one rehearsal before Glenn achieved major success with his band and relocated to Sydney, along with James achieving mild success with his band and relocating to Melbourne, and Russell achieving no success and staying in Perth. 5 years later, Glenn and James are coming home for Christmas and they're getting the band back together! Marking the bands first and ONLY live appearance EVER, they'll be performing a multitude of songs spanning Ben Folds Five's entire career. BEN COUSINS FIVE will perform fan favourites Jackson Cannery, Philosophy, Selfless, Cold & Composed, One Angry Dwarf, Army, Underground, Emaline and so many more!

Russell Loasby (Darren Jessee) / Big Orange, Michael Savage, Autumn Isles, Institut Polaire


WEEZER performed by BUDWEEZER

BUDWEEZER first played when the members of Split Seconds wanted to get into a Christmas party – an attempt to get some free drinks – and they’ve been delivering sweet Weezer pop-rock hits ever since.

Having supported the likes of Nirvana and Green Day (cover bands), Budweezer are now ready to join geek-forces with Ben Cousins Five. Sticking to the earlier Weezer songs we all love and know so well, come hang out with us: if you’ve seen us before, you know we’ve got this.

If it’s too loud, turn it down.
