I met with the folks at The Curtin on the weekend, and I'm heartbroken for the bookers, workers & artists who are about to lose an institution. They were clear: it's not just one pub in trouble. Melbourne live music is really hurting.

Thanks to Karen From Finance Paris Martine (The Curtin) Cash Savage @SimonePulga (Butterfly Club) and Loretta Miller (Jazz Party) for chatting with Ellen Sandell Dr Tim Read MP and I. We will fight for this scene, tooth & nail.

Good step in the right direct in recognising the value of live music venues.

Unionists have threatened to form a picket line to stop potential developers at one of Melbourne's oldest pubs. They've announced a "green ban" at the Curtin Hotel, reviving a controversial strike movement from the 1970s. @elisabeth_moss9 #9News

Unions have resorted to controversial tactics from the past to try to save the iconic 'John Curtin' hotel in Carlton. They have resurrected 'green bans' used to save heritage buildings in Melbourne almost 50 years ago. 7NEWS.com.au NickMcCallum7 #7NEWS

As a long time advocate for live music and someone who has watched their suburb turn into a bunch of dog boxes where there once were galleries, arts and meeting places for communities, I can’t thank the unions enough for drawing a line in the sand on this one.

Decided to do a little research on all this hullabaloo about Australian Labor releasing their costings.. and what do ya know. #auspol #AusPol2022

It's that time of year again, where agents book shows while connecting over the footy.

How conflicted would you feel as a member of Lyn Dawson's family today.

Leaving X for obvious reasons. I barely used it and given the distaste i have for Elon, it’s good to deactivate it. Follow me at the usual places if you don’t already. I will leave this up for a few days just in case.
