  • Hits & Pits - is still a new, 'baby' festival, not trying to achieve anything further then touring through a niche genre of talented Punk Rock & Ska acts. Nothing underlying, all transparent. 

    In todays day and age; it's becoming increasingly difficult to do so - Though we wont lie down.

  • The amount of 'fan mail' and requests we receive - everything from venue selection ideas and to the lineup of bands ideas is (excitingly) overwhelming, and we are thankful. The positive feedback stems very far.

  • If we can all be involved, then these 8 hour long shows, 6 city events should and can be nothing shy of perfect, plus we also really want to take this event to Hobart, Auckland, Los Angeles and Tokyo!

  • We have some huge goals and expectations set in-house that we wish to reach, being: delivering the loudest & fastest bands we all love and wish to continue seeing perform live in Australia.

  • We're chasing $50k. It seems like a lot, though it's the necessary amount. It will scrape it by to get the job done, with these plans and ideas.
    Approx 7,000 people attended the events (currently), some have never missed a show, and I'm sure will never miss a show, so between the lot of us, and our friends + network, this contribution could be realistically and easily met. Long live!
  • The perks are pretty damn good.. Well, in our opinion they are.
    We didn't want to sit around and offer download cards, or crummy merchandise, that doesn't benefit; and shrinks in the dryer, so we have chosen an approach that will have you closely connected, and literally physically connected and hanging out with the bands & crew of the tour, plus enable you to view the acts from the best possible position in the venue - all the while swallowing down your own personal catering rider and provided goodies you'll usually find backstage. e.g., plenty of drinks and hummus.
  • Funds are headed to the bands, the stages, the venues, the cost of early liquor licences, the merchandise, the brand name, the sound systems, the employment of more crew (so bands can play longer sets), the promotion, the exploration of taking the event to new cities, and this will all be demonstrated upon reaching the goal.

  • We all need this.
    Whist there is incredible bands constantly touring Australia through amazing promoters - this festival, and its close knit, secure bunch of fans/friends - is more then a once off feat, and we now know that!
    Its a community and a lifestyle, and that is how we view it.

  • Three successful Hits & Pits Festivals have previously been completed. Lets keep it alive and well, with low ticket prices, and extend this way into the future.
  • If you cannot contribute and/or dont feel comfortable contributing, no sweat!
    Although that doesn't mean that you cannot help:
    * Make some noise!
    * Tell your friends!
    * Pass this info on!
    We can't just rely on our own facebook punishing :)
