Welcome to the Blog and News of Alternative Rock Band OPOSIUM

Our video team have edited together a short 2 minute video from clips taken over the last few gigs between November 2008 and March 2009. It includes clips from PURC, St Mary's Longfleet and Centre Point as well as our flaming piano. Watch the video on our homepage or below now! Go...

Just a shout to all who were involved one way or another on Saturday for the concert at St Mary's Longfleet; we had an amazing time and were so grateful to everyone who turned out!! So thank you - in particular to Clive Garton who organised so much, John on sound and Tim Piper with the video feeds - but also to everyone who organised the cafe and setting up the stage through the two days! We couldn't have done it without you :)

Also, big thanks to all the bands who supported us - Once October, View 93 and Not About The Heroes !



Pictures from the concert are available here >>

THANK YOU all again!!!

The Oposium gig banner is up once again! This time outside St Mary's Longfleet ahead of the concert this coming Saturday... So if you're passing, do point it out to fellow people who would otherwise not understand !



Or if you're trying to find the venue on the night, then this should help you! On a serious note, parking for St Mary's is quite difficult but there is a lot of free parking in nearby roads on the opposite side of the main road from the venue (in Garland Road and St Mary's Road especially).

See you there!

As many of you will have seen, our next concert will be on January 3rd 2009 at St Mary's Longfleet church. Supporting Oposium will be indie punk band Not About The Heroes and acoustic acts JLR and View 93. As we always do, we'll be converting the church for the evening with fantastic arrangements of lights, projections and backdrops. St Mary's also have two installed cameras trained and the stage so we'll be looking forward to using them and projecting onto two of three screens with live pictures from the stage.

And that's before we even start on the music... - We've got some big ideas for this concert, although you'll have to come to find out!



Flyers have been printed and hopefully you'll see either one like the flyer above, or one of our distinctive posters up and around Poole. If you don't, you can download it here.

For any of you who want to find out a bit more about the church, then according to the St Mary's website http://www.smlpoole.org.uk

We [St Mary's Longfleet] are an Evangelical/Charismatic Anglican Church in Poole on the South Coast. In recent years we have experienced much encouraging growth, especially in our children’s and Youth work.

Together, we are aiming to become the kind of Church described in the Bible – a Church with relevant teaching (have a look at our Sermon Series and other courses), vibrant worship, honest friendships, committed prayer, and compassionate care of those in need. In short, we seek to look upwards to meet with God and grow in faith, inwards to support and encourage each other in small groups, and outwards to serve and make a difference in our local community and beyond.

So whether you’re someone who’s just starting to ask questions about purpose in life and God, or a committed Christian who wants to sink the roots of your faith even deeper, we trust that you can find a place of belonging here.

Tickets are £2 in advance, £3 on the door and are on sale now from the Oposium boxoffice http://boxoffice.oposium.com
