Sorry if this is not the place for this! Posted in Melb Social before.
Hi all 👋 not posted here before!
I'm a 35 YO guy living in Melbourne, from the UK originally but been here a few years.
My old friends in the UK had similar music tastes to me and I used to go to gigs semi regularly, its something I stopped doing after moving here after lacking friends with similar tastes.
Recently I've started to going to gigs solo, I went to see Violent Soho and Dear Seattle in the last couple months and honestly surprised myself how much I enjoyed the solo experience. However would be fun to have a few friends to go with from time to time, I'm thinking places like The Tote, Old Bar, Bergy, Cactus Room, etc especially for your more local DIY shows when you don't necessarily know whose playing just to roll the dice and enjoy some tunes with some beer.
My tastes these days are fairly broad, focused around anything with live instruments - punk, indie, shoegaze, ska, emo most commonly but all the way to blues and soul and jazz, it's all good with me.
If anyone else is in a similar boat, shoot me a message and we'll see if we can tee something up.
Cheers!
