Tuesday nights is the best improvised and experimental music in melbourne at the Make It Up Club.
Stand out the front of this place & listen to douche bags talk about how other dudes aren't hardcore even though they think they're hardcore. The conversation can only be described as totally hardcore
Great little bar and bandroom on Sydney Road that will help fill the hole that the East Brunswick will leave for local bands. Website has gig guide, blog and mailing list.
Current host to the monthly Racket - Sound, Art, Experiments gigs hosted the first Thursday of every month. http://www.facebook.com/RacketSoundArtExperiments
In this age of (legal & illegally) downloadable music, it's still great to visit a real record store, with knowledgable staff, and a good selection of lesser known artists.
Take a self-guided tour through a building that's exciting both visually and aurally, will be open 10am-4pm Saturday July 30 as part of Melbourne Open House 2011
You could easily spend hours here, flicking through a massive range of music and cult DVDs.
The tattooed security guard who use to be a fixture at the door of the Cherry Bar is now working the door here. It's always great to see a welcoming smiling face!
Tables are set right up to the performers, the staff know music inside-and-out, and the drinks menu is generous. Dress sharp, order a drink neat and open your ears. Read more.
At the new improved iTote 2.0 you can now buy a tasty Taco in the beer garden and they now have cider on tap! A VB 4 me though. :)
The perfect place to park your laptop and combine business with the pleasure of eating and drinking. Free wi-fi, and power plugs near the tables FTW.
Excellently mellow venue with a downstairs and an upstairs live music venue
