What makes Crossfox interesting to listen to is the fact that it’s so hard to pin down exactly which bands the y're influenced by. One moment they’ll sound like the Foo Fighters or Pearl Jam\, and the next they’ll rip out a lead guitar line that sou nds like something from Sleeping People. Crossfox are able to pull off the mainstream/indie juxtaposition because under it all they know how to write a good hook." - The Stranger blog\, 03/09VISIT THEIR MYSPACE \n LOCATION:Nightlight Lounge @ 211 East Chestnut Street, Bellingham, Was hington 98225 United States SEQUENCE:1246122766 UID:E0-001-022630058-7 URL:http://eventful.com/E0-001-022630058-7 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20090710T000000 DTEND:20090712T000000 DTSTAMP:20090419T063529Z SUMMARY:Faulty Towers – the Dining Experience DESCRIPTION: Time: 2.00pm & 8.00pm Interactive Theatre Australia\, in association with Ten42 Productions.Ever wondered what it would be lik e to dine at Faulty Towers with the manic Basil\, his domineering wife \, Sybil\, and their hopeless language-challenged waiter\, Manuel? Wel l now you can find out. Everything that can go wrong will. Asking for an ice bucket ends up with you being presented with a 'nice bucket'. A simple procedure like opening a bottle of wine can become a huge dram a. And\, maybe\, just maybe\, in the middle of all these events\, you might get some service\, Faulty style\, of course. In fact\, this can best be described as organised chaos bundled into two hours of "fat-wo bbling\, gut-busting\, face-aching laughter" whilst\, at the same time \, enjoying a fabulous three course meal. Acclaimed both nationally an d internationally\, selling out at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2007 and 2008\, Adelaide Fringe Festival in 2008\, and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2008\, this interactive comedy dining ex perience is a must-see for fans of all ages - just don't mention the w ar! ‘Finding yourself at the sharp end of Basil’s tounge for havin g your elbows on the table\, being gently patronised by Sybil while Ma nuel serves a roll by throwing it at you is marvelous fun\, and to be highly recommended’.
