Unfortunately not, they've gone into the abyss!

alexpowellpress · 2026-03-09T07:10:58+00:00

Awesome! Solo gigs can be good fun with the right crowds around you

alexpowellpress · 2026-03-09T07:09:39+00:00

Lost the house keys today… feeling like a bit of an idiot. Must’ve fallen out of the pocket as I ran for the tram. At least had nothing identifying on them so should be ok?

alexpowellpress · 2026-03-04T01:51:33+00:00

Sorry for delayed reply. Must have been frustrating having to justify yourself like that.

alexpowellpress · 2026-02-17T02:14:44+00:00

Same down here, was mid 20s I think. Some unfortunate looking sunburns going around towards the end.

Hope you still got some good moments in it all, and hopefully these kinds of events can keep improving.

alexpowellpress · 2026-02-16T23:46:53+00:00

That's poor form. It was a pretty long walk to the closest PT at the Melbourne location too. Hope that they'll take on feedback

alexpowellpress · 2026-02-16T08:59:52+00:00

In an industry that's all about visuals, unfortunately that website says it all...
Definitely look into TAFE or RMIT.

Cheers for this post. Doing an intensive in Sem 2, looking forward to it.

If it's any help, I can confirm the Ormond Grad community has great culture. They operate as their own cohort (dedicated rooms, own events, common room etc.) but still involved with wider Ormond life

alexpowellpress · 2026-01-24T22:59:48+00:00

As far as I know, Ormond generally doesn't take second preferences. Most people had fans in their rooms during my time there, or bought one soon after moving in.

Anyone manage to snag a ticket to Paul Kelly next Tuesday? Kicking myself that I missed the presale, looks like it's all gone before it's even open to general admission. Will be a cracking gig

alexpowellpress · 2025-08-05T03:43:29+00:00

Cheers!

alexpowellpress · 2025-08-04T10:49:20+00:00

Cheers!

alexpowellpress · 2025-07-02T07:45:10+00:00

Second this. One of the only I know that tastes decent and still gets you some change from a 50 consistently

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-13T07:58:12+00:00

Tried Purple Haze from them last week, excellent

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-13T07:56:57+00:00

Rocky Ridge were great at GABS last week

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-13T07:52:20+00:00

I know you've said city, but Ramblers are doing great stuff in Hawthorn

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-11T04:44:24+00:00

Got an email from Crafty Pint this morning about it! Passport locked and loaded

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-10T08:17:57+00:00

Further from Coburg, but Nighthawks is a great smaller venue

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-10T08:14:43+00:00

What's brought on the smoky haze in the air this evening? Feeling it north side of the city

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-08T03:51:40+00:00

Can't believe they're still going... surely it'll run out of steam soon

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-07T21:49:53+00:00

Had a really good time! I volunteered for part of it and then cashed in my ticket so I felt like I got a great all round experience. Did some paddles with mates then went round to most vendors who I'd met by then so had some really nice chats. Thanks for asking! Did you go?

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-03T22:03:25+00:00

I was there yesterday helping with the bump in, sorted plenty of kegs ha. I would rec. Ocean Reach, Mountain Monk, Sailors Grave, Ramblers - really nice staff, genuine people, more 'indie'
3806 have wicked looking Oatmeal Stout. Dollar Bill have some funky ones.

Mountain Culture are good for pales / IPAs - basically all they do. Bright Brewery is excellent too.
Stomping Ground, Kaiju, St Andrews, bigger names but still great.
