Fringe - Set List Roulette with Jessie Gordon and Mark Turner
Join Mark and Jessie for a new, unplanned and entirely improvised show each night! They’ll be asking the audience for requests and playing set list roulette with a brand new set list so YOU get to write the show!
The set list comprises 100 songs from their vast repertoire collected over a lifetime of playing music together. Take a decade of big band swing, years of touring with blues musicians in Europe, a love affair with folk, many pub classics at weddings, a more than passing interest in risqué cabaret (that’s a good name for a show), and you have a fairly eclectic song list. Be careful what you ask for!

Some Like It Yacht Valentine's Day Ball 2026
Love is in the air — and on the breeze from the Indian Ocean — as Some Like It Yacht return for their 7th annual Valentine’s Ball, this time falling right on the big day itself! Join Perth’s smoothest band under the stars at Fremantle's Port Beach Brewery for a night of soft rock romance, golden-era grooves, and more heart-melting harmonies than a Christopher Cross chorus.
Dress to impress, bring someone who makes your heart-sails billow, and let the evening drift between sunset, starlight, and smooth tunes from the masters of mellow. Expect all your yacht rock favourites — plus a few new songs making their Valentine’s debut — across an evening you'll never forget.
And for those about to set sail for the first time, you may like to consider the Group Love Deal: six tickets for the price of four — a perfect way to bring a few new friends along for the fun!
