Basked in the warm fuzzy glow of the doom electro synth of AXXONN. Album launched; it then lumbered, lurched, then finally lacerated. Lovely, just lovely :) http://www.myspace.com/axxonn1 Do yourself!

Tuesday nights is the best improvised and experimental music in melbourne at the Make It Up Club.
There’s no better way to take in the splendour of the CBD on a long summer's day than the roof of Curtain House. Transition a late night down to a booth at the Toff in Town, and you’re golden.
Its a long walk up, but worth the six flights of stairs. They play movies on the projector here too!
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.

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
c3 gallery has openings every so often, on a Wednesday. It's the one on the garden side that looks a bit like a cellar!
Beautiful old, gothic convent on the banks of the Yarra turned into a community farm and centre. Great little food places too. One of my favourite spots in Melbourne. Best visited on a weekend.
