best steak in town imo:

deery's story bridge hotel

Fiasco's morrison hotel wooloongabba

char char grill bris cbd (most expensive)

[034936]

does the woolloongabba one have a big sign claiming they have the best steaks in town?

[CBM]

Char Char Char is AMAZING but pretty expensive.

For cheap, cheap, CHEAP decent steaks you can't really beat the fox on a sunday. Steak, chips, sauce and a super dry for $7.50.

Mmm heaps of awesome gigs. Going to:

Lucksmiths

Frankly! Festival at the Powerhouse

(maybe) GZA

(maybe) Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks

Vivian Girls

Tiny Vipers

Casiotone for the Painfully Alone

Buzzcocks

YAY we finally have a decent run of shows.

Where all my money goes apart from booze and clothes haha.

Where do you guys normally head out to?

[034936]

lately i haven't been in the mood for getting a 30 dollar taxi home at 4am. So recently the spots have been the bowery, alhumbra and gerties.

anyone recommend a good cobbler in brisbane?

[034936]

I've used the one downstairs in the broadway mall and the one in anzac square without problems. only for minor things though.

[beveridge]

old mate opposite the romoa st station is pretty handy, reheeled and soled 2 pairs of mjolks for $25. that was a couple of years ago, not sure if he's there anymore?

[handmade]

thx guys. ive tried the cobbler at the bottom of broadway, they seem ok. might give the one roma st station one a try, dont wanna destroy my ann d's

[034936]

cobblers two is the name? will defs try it out next time.

[034936]

you like Mono dude that's awesome.. respect..

what other shoegaze/instrumental/post rock/ambient? do you like? Do you listen to m83, Eluvium, Hammock, Ovum, The American Dollar (<-- Highly recommend) or anything like that?

[034936]

m83 and eluvium, yes. I'll check the others out man, it's a pretty hard type of music to find decent artists in. Recently i've been massively into vessels and bowery electric.

[jcotteri]

^yeh man i would suggest The American Dollar first

buy all of their albums for cheap off their webstore (34 us) or as mp3 for $20.

[jcotteri]

Bowrey Electric look really good.. I'll peep them later.. I have listened to Vessels before I think.. Going to see if i can hunt it down later. thanks

[jcotteri]

hey dude how did you go?

I also recommend French Teen Idol (I know the name may throw you off, but he is quite good) & All Angels Gone... if you don't mind some lyrics..

you should sign up to last.fm

[034936]

i am on last.fm. it's served me very well for finding new artists. pm me your username if you like and i'll add you.

I;m actually pretty in need of new stuff at the moment so I'll definitely check both of those out.

I still havent got my hands on The American Dollar yet (no money, no torrent) but it's on my list.
