I'm actually not surprised.
I've run the data and you're not a Melburnian, you're a suburbian.
Quite possibly. I spent 30 years working in the CBD but living in the far outer suburbs.
i did go to Stop The Drop at the Music bowl in to see the Oils. Does that count for anything?
File this under posts you can smell.
Stale beer, strong chemical cleaner, BO, wood and spices.
Ive never been to Chasers either.
ET’s (Edwards tavern) in Prahran, the Skinny Dog and the Prospect hill hotel in Kew and the Auburn hotel were my haunts in the late 80s/ early 90s to see live music.
Same. It actually terrified me in my teens early 20’s. Once I got the vibe and it’s actually a place to just be you, it was fine.
And not an every week venue. Good the less you go. And then go And go and go.
I went there once on New Year's morning. I'd been at a rooftop party at the Terminus in Richmond, then another gig at Two Floors up in the city, which wasn't really doing it for me. My friends wanted to stay so I said, "I'm off to Revs. I'll know someone." Got in at 6am. Got home January 3rd.
Moved to Melbourne in 05'.
Rented an apartment in Prahran with Mrs Leysy.
The apartment backed right onto the smoko area at Revs.
Spent many a Sunday morning over brekkie listening to some "deep" conversations.
And more than a few in the venue itself.

I think I backed up a couple of days later and picked up a German backpacker at the Prince of Wales. But that could have been the next year, I can't remember.
I lived in Prahran in '05! Off Dandenong Rd near Chapel St, near the Polish club. Was more 161 than Revs at that point but still spent a few nights at Revs.
161 was a way more friendly and welcoming vibe. But way harder to get into Until you proved yourself to not be a DH.
Was, and still am, more 161 than Revs as well. I've seen many an AFL and NRL player up to no good at 161.
They assume very few know who they are....
I had a good chat to Nick Daffy there one night. He was retired by then. Seemed alright.
I was waiting for someone to make that joke.
