Melbourne/Falls was so good, just went to the main few stores, SA's were all heaps nice, chiodo,assin and somedays were all really cool fitouts. Grab an APC T and a VE knit on sale. Had a chat to the assin sa about my uc bag but no one recognized my sufu ebbets =(. Will be back for laneways on the 4th of Feb if anyone wants to grab a beer.

Any recommendations of places to go to get some pants tapered and approx cost? Asked my local but they didn't seem too knowledgable on the subject and I don't want to waste $35 plus a pair of chinos.

[home]

fuck the heat.

^ really? tapering is saa basic. any tailor worth his salt will do a decent job. $25 sounds about right.

anyone recommend a good white-boy-hair stylist? i got curls. cbd / se melb.

[Cameron Soleimani]

New here. But do the sufu melb crowd ever do meet-ups? Would be cool.

Whats the cost?

[Lilt]

Whats the cost?

$75 for men I think? He's the best in melb imo though

[jbanger]

holy fuck, you pay $75 for a haircut?

[Lilt]

Yeah, I don't throw away money on stupid stuff like the newest iToy 9billion.0 and 10million hours of talking time plan so I like to spend money on things that actually matter to me

Also make sure to ask for steven blick.

[Cameron Soleimani]

I rang up today and he wanted $95, so i dunno.

[jbanger]

^ if he was a she and it included the mandatory "happy ending" then it'd be worth the $95

[Lilt]

Damn, must have gone up since I went last.

[Martus]

I never been in melbourne...Please say about that more

[jackg]

anyone else see hall and oates last night?? pretty spot on.

[conqueror]

i can see the point in spending $50 or more on a (du's) haircut if you have sort of a fashunz/cut style that is hard to do, but if you just have a pretty regular du cut it seems pretty dumb.

[Lilt]

I find something done well always shows, even if it's simple, maybe even especially if it's simple. A little like getting a suit made by a quality tailor vs. ready to wear.

[home]

who's lanewaying it? bummed over the m83 / washed out / sbtrkt / horrors / toro y / drums clashes. should be a solid outing nonetheless. fuck the heat, mind you.

[conqueror]

i'd love to see ema, but i hate fests so i'm not going. wish she did a sideshow in adelaide.

[jackg]

not doing laneway but definitely going to aphex twin in march!!!!!!

[034936]

^motherfuckkk why no brisbane sideshow, god damn you guys

[usher]

brisbane doesn't get sideshows for anything :/

[Lilt]

I only like a few of the bands in the laneway fest so not bothering, going to see dick diver and geoffrey o connor at e. bruns club for sure though.
