THREE … great things to do this weekend

Archie Roach comes to Pomona.

By Hollie Harris

1. Archie Roach – Friday, 8 September from 7.30pm – 10.30pm – In a voice rich with humanity, filled with joy, pain, love and longing, Archie Roach traces the journey of his people, and gets to the heart of what it means to be human. He is one of Australia’s most treasured performers.
His new album Let Love Rule is a complex, textured offering that reaches orchestral heights, often from minimal, pensive beginnings. Tickets $60 or $55 for concession via www.themajestictheatre.com.au
2. Saturday afternoon Roller Skate! – The regular Sunday morning skate is taking place on Saturday this week only. Join the Tewantin Noosa Rollers for an over-18 all-women skate session at the Noosa Leisure Centre from 3.30 – 5.30 pm for two hours of laughter and fun on eight wheels. (No inlines) Must take along your own skates or just go for a look.
3. Doc Span and Andrew Pharrell – Put Saturday 9 September in your diary – when blues harmonica legend Doc Span joins forces with piano wizard Andrew Farrell at Eumundi’s Imperial Hotel. Tickets are only $20 at the Imperial Hotel (Phone: 5442 8811). Doors open 7.30pm.
