Not On Your Rider is a live version of your favourite music quiz panel shows – except you get to play along and win real prizes.
Not On Your Rider is a live version of your favourite music quiz panel shows – except you get to play along and win real prizes. After selling out massive venues like The Fortitude Music Hall and conquering Splendour in the Grass, Brisbane’s cult trivia night-meets-gameshow is making its way to Felons Barrel Hall!
Gather your team and join host and writer Aimon Clark (The Creases/Isolation Trivia) alongside bandleader and music genius Simi Lacroix to cheer on our panel of special guests captained by Patience Hodgson (The Grates) and Jeremy Neale (Velociraptor) while we play games, have some laughs and hear stories and secrets from across the entertainment industry that are too juicy for broadcast. There is no other show like it - you can get involved in the competition by playing along at your table or just sit back and enjoy the silly buggers.
Keep an eye out for when we announce our star-studded panel - past guests have included Robert Irwin, Kate Miller-Heidke, Adam Hills, Myf Warhurst, Wil Anderson, Ben Lee, Trent Dalton, Steven Bradbury, Ranger Stacey, Mel Buttle, Agro and members of The Wiggles, Powderfinger, Ball Park Music, The Jungle Giants, The Go-Betweens, Dune Rats, The Chats, Ruby Fields and Washington.
Covering all decades and genres - rally your team together for a night of surprises, fun and probably the time of your life.
“Had an absolute ball at Not On Your Rider. The best live onstage music quiz show I’ve been involved with for years. The man behind the quiz, Aimon Clark - honestly he held it all together like a spider spinning a delicately balanced but also clever and funny web.” – Adam Hills, host of Spicks and Specks
“Incredible! Glorious! Brilliant! The best night out in Brisbane.” – Trent Dalton, Author of Boy Swallows Universe
NOTE - You do not have to be good at trivia to enjoy these nights - In fact it’s probably better that way.
DOORS at 6.30pm however you are welcome to come on down from 5pm for pre-drinks and snacks
