Chalk Hotel Woolloongabba Brisbane

Posted: Wednesday, May 31st, 2006 @ 1:22 pm in Clubs & Bars, Reviews | 3 Comments »

It seems customary that these reviews start with the words “Oh yes” so here I go. Oh yes The Chalk Hotel in Woolloongabba, the exciting new venue that seemingly appeared out of nowhere to make its mark on the Brisbane scene late last year. So there I found myself on Stanley Street after taking a […]

I write this for those who are truly down for the cause. What is the cause you say? Well I write this for those who truly appreciate a good night out. What does a good night out entail? Exotic cocktails, an attractive, friendly crowd, great music and a venue that lets you relax and put […]

The Family Nightclub Brisbane Valley

Ah yes, The Family. The pinnacle and the ultimate venue in Brisbane. Good way to start a review eh? Already calling it the best place in Brisbane… is it a title well deserved? Or am I just being overly bias in The Family’s favour? It’s really hard to say, I have been going there since […]

Benny Benassi at The Family Nightclub Saturday 10th of June

Oh yes! Its here! I was in Sydney when Benny Benassi played at Summer Field Days (spelt correctly) down the Gold Coast at the beginning of the year. I was so devastated I missed him play (as well as Armin Van Buuren & Carl Cox)! The Satisfaction Italian DJ is playing at the Family NightClub […]

Lychee Lounge West End Brisbane

There is so much choice in Brisbane now, there really is, from the city, valley, west end to pretty much every suburb I can think of, there exists one or two venues that you can spend a whole night at. Nevertheless, there is not so much good choice. The City is about as secure as […]

Testing the TEMP in the Rivery City

Posted: Monday, May 1st, 2006 @ 1:57 am in Opinion | 5 Comments »

Aaaahhhh, Brisbane. It’s that cold nibble at your toes around 11pm at night, when you’re taking that solitary self-immersed stroll along the river. It’s the new chill in the breeze that buffers your cheeks as you watch the Story Bridge lights slip over the blackened water, as if submersible fireworks were exploding, creating […]
