G'day all, keep checking this page as we've put together a group
of people and we'll be
making this site into much much more! More reviews,
online passes, searchable layout!
Bennett's Lane Jazz Club:
Great
Jazz, but a bit on the pricey side for us poor students. Door fee is set
at $10/9conc to get in. The drinks are expensive as well. So bring your
student cards, down a few beforehand cuz the Jazz here is superb!
- Bennett Lane (Duh) just behind the Museum in the City
The Bullring
Excellent Latin American night club. On fridays, a 15 piece Latin American
band plays 'till around 2:30 and is absolutely superb. Sundays and Wednesdays
you can join in and learn to dance the Latin style. Three couples were
dancing when I went a few weeks ago and it's just as much fun watching
them as listening and watching the band play!
- Cover charge of around $6-8 but worth it. Free after 2am, but not
much left then.
- North side of Johnston Street between Brunswick and Nicholson Streets,
Fitzroy
The
Circuit
Good pub/nightclub with pool tables and dance floor. Mostly for the 18-20
year olds. Gets packed out by about 9pm on Thursday nights, so go early.
-Dress: Jeans w/out holes, dress shoes and shirt w/collar
-Around $5.00 to get in.
The Club Band Venue & Bar:
The
Club doesn't open 'till around 11-11:30pm and closes when the cows come
home. The Club has been open for a number of years now. This alone shows
how successful it has been in getting top notch bands. Two bands on Fridays,
first starts Midnight, 2nd around 2:30am and goes till 5-5:30am. Pool tables
upstairs with a bar, and tables downstairs along with the band and yes,
another bar. Regular bar prices for beer - $4 crownies, and $3.50 VB's.
Great cover bands playing Hendrix, Clapton and Old-Style Blues on Friday/Saturday
Nights as well as other types of bands. Top place for those that want to
party after 2am. More of the 25-30 year old crowd.
$3.oo Entry
- 132a Smith St, Collingwood
Downunder Rock Cafe:
Well,
this place has changed since I was here last. The area upstairs is set
up for bands and isn't too shabby at it. Downstairs they have an arcade
set up with Daytona, pinnies and a cocktail bar. Very swish. From what
I've seen, bands are on Fridays and Saturdays. Will find out more soon.
- 186 Lygon St, Carlton
The Night Cat
If you want to see Jazz, here's a good start. This is that 'lamp shade place' (what a friend
of mine calls it). Pretty much any dress goes, from suits to ripped jeans, but most people
come fairly dressed up in whatever style they choose... remember it's a jazz club. Highly
recommend it.
- Johnston Street, just before the petrol station.
Ruby Red:
Argh.. Moved down Johnston Street, Fitzroy.. down the East End.
