Beloved Sydney music venue Goodgod Small Club will undergo a name and management change on Sunday December 13, becoming Plan B Smallclub after that date.
Though the news hits hard, particularly for those who have flooded to the determinedly independent venue over the years, Goodgod is going out in the best possible way. Gigs will be going ahead as usual over the club’s last 11 days, with a special Goodgod and Goodbye Dance booked to send the place off in style on Saturday December 12.
Every one of the venue’s remaining shows promises to be a stunner, with the performance of rising star Gordi on Thursday December 10 inspiring particular anticipation. A GG Hall of Fame show, featuring such luminaries as Twerps and Bed Wettin’ Bad Boys, will take place on Wednesday December 9.
Lovers of live music need not despair, though. The statement provided by management makes it clear that the venue will still be a home for live music even after the name change. So, in that case: Goodgod Small Club is dead. Long live Plan B Smallclub!
