Location

59 Port Rd , Hindmarsh, SA, Australia, South Australia 5007 | Adelaide, SA

Formed when ‘woke’ meant being woken up by your flatmate throwing up after a big night out at Whispers Nightclub Pooraka Hotel, this merry band of musical misfits and comical clowns are coming together for another once-a-year celebration. With their unique blend of cabaresque craziness and unusual song choices, Big Squid are always entertaining and well worth the opportunity to view a classic live performance - not to mention seeing if the same friends you saw this time last year still have their own teeth and knees!
Utilising such great artists as The Sweet, Village People, Rick Springfield, Sherbert, Kiss and The Proclaimers, as well as everything in between, there’s no song too weak for these seasoned veterans of outlandish entertainment. If you were around in the late 80s and 1990s and didn’t see Big Squid at Lennies, The Grand Prix, The Adelaide Casino, The Waymouth Tavern or The Findon, then you probably didn’t ever leave home!
Big Squid have been entertaining people for too many years to remember, and now reunite (yet again) in an effort to relive those heydays and reminisce back to when they were all young and beautiful. These days, they’re just a bunch of grey-haired old fellas that look a bit like ‘someone that I used to know’ on the Adelaide music scene, but they are still ‘funny, irreverent and irresistible to lonely women and men who wish to meet same’, according to a friend of Molly Meldrum’s.
So listen up, people! They’re back at The Gov for another Sunday afternoon show on January 12th in 2025, so here’s your opportunity (is it the last?!) to come along and: Find out if Dave needs a wheelchair this year, maybe get to ride Glen Campbell’s horse live on stage, catch up with old friends and maybe meet some new ones, laugh at the same old jokes and sing along to the same old songs, but most of all, be prepared to be entertained.
At $30 a ticket for over 3 hours of entertainment, it’s cheaper than getting your hair permed!
