Have been in Melbourne for a little while now but haven't had a chance to go out and watch some live music. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
Anyone notice the rise of Ai gig posters this year? Thoughts? Do you support the bands that do this? Please share any posters you’ve seen
Hey peeps, im searching all over for a Dance Gavin Dance hoodie. And possibly also some Community merch. (The NBC show)

Thatd be super cool. Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone! I’m about to start a music program at the school I’m working at. I’d love to have some local band posters on display in the classroom for the kids to be exposed to and (hopefully) drum up some curiosity about. Rather than the huge name, stock standard band posters that are available everywhere. If anyone has a band that has some old or current posters floating around, I’d love to take them off your hands! Obviously need to be appropriate for a school classroom; just nothing offensive or gory etc. Thanks!
Coming down to Melbourne and need to find a practice room for five piece with backline hire and PA. Would need to be relatively central. Anyone have any good experiences with rooms in the past?
The musician was a frequent player at Billboards back in the day and his band played a super catchy song that was mostly instrumental and the crowd involvement was them screaming “WHOOP WHOOP” then part way through the song, there would be a breakdown where it would go into Queens of the Stoneage - No one knows for a verse / riff then they would stop, say “oh I’m sorry, did I interrupt your disco dancing” and go back into the original song.
I did some googling, but the only thing it came up with was some Will Sparks song, which isn’t it.
Pretty sure the band played at Revs, the Big Day Out and maybe the Forum at one stage as a support act.
Thank You.
I'm 17 and have had no problem getting into 18+ gigs before as i always make my parents take me and that normally works. But i want too see south arcade at the croxton and they are very adamant that no under 18 can even if they are accompanied by an adult. I also want too see ocean grove at 170 Russel.
Will these venues accept fake digital id's. and if so where can i go about getting one. I can only pay with bitcoin though. I just want too see my fav bands live i don't want to drink their overpriced ahh drinks.
I'm a 13 year old drummer with a grade 4 certification in drums and was wondering if any bands were looking for a drummer, If so please respond and like we can meet up at someplace or sm
I live in the outer suburbs of Melbourne and none of my friends are into techno and hardstyle. And never wanna go and i’m quite bored of going myself. I still don’t mind going myself but sometimes I’d like to go with a group of people.
Drone Day is May 30. If you want to broadcast your session anonymously, as usual nullband will be open all day.
nullband is an anonymous transmission platform. Signals appear on a waterfall display and fade when you stop. No account, no name.
Multiple people can broadcast simultaneously.
Going to seed drone transmissions in the days leading up to it so the ghost chain is already running deep by the time May 30 arrives.
Desktop via BUTT, iOS via iziCast. Free token at nullband.org/transmit and you’re live in minutes.
There will also be a simulcast YouTube live window 10.00 AM UTC

Built a small Melbourne events guide called Xalo.au after getting tired of scattered event posts and random listings.
It’s still early, but it lets you browse by Tonight, Weekend, Music, City, Family, Sports and areas. Would love honest feedback from locals on what would actually make it useful 🙂
Olivia C. Dacal came up on my For You page this morning and I’ve been listening to “Tragic Love Story” all day. It got me thinking about how some artists seem to build a genuine connection with listeners long before they have major commercial success.
Is it the songwriting, authenticity, production style, social media presence, or something else that makes people connect with newer artists? What are some lesser known artists you’ve discovered recently that made you stop and listen? https://open.spotify.com/track/6fIkgdMrq2OzoHKcpEYO8z?si=YBqIk1b6QBOANCyj-92gcQ
Hi, not sure what to look for myself but I am looking for recommendations and advice for a beginner drum kit for my 16yr old son. He has an interest in learning the drums and his school offers a music program which I'm gonna be signing him for next term to get him started and see if it sticks.
