  A popular urban myth concerns a group of art students who passed themselves off as a band in order to con the local publican into giving them a gig in exchange for free beer. The deception worked better than intended and the group came to be known as Mental as Anything. Nearly two decades later they are still irritating the public with their highly listenable idiosyncratic brand of garage pop.In 2004 Mental As Anything celebrated 27 years of touring. Since forming in 1977 they have played over 3 500 shows across three continents used more than 100km of gaffa tape released 12 albums 36 singles and held 3 group art exhibtions while having a lot of fun in the process.They kick off the celebrations live at The Basement with all their fans friends and cohorts from the last 25 years.
