  • The Victorian election in November ok im from the bush thanks Melbourne

  • Well done, Melbourne. I t was good to see such a large contingent supporting a worthy cause.

    I'm flabbergasted that a government that promotes Melbourne as the mecca of culture & the arts, would come up with a policy which , virtually wipes out one of its main supports and tourist attractions ....... live music.

    This policy appears to be a knee jerk reaction to a much larger problem, for which the state has no definitive answers.

  • Yeah they (supposedly) wanted to cut down on violence at certain nightclubs, but these nightclubs are still up and running, and the live venues (where there is no violence) are being forced to close down. Many country pubs are going to be forced to close down too. In other words, the violence problem at nightclubs ain`t gonna be solved when the venues that have no violence are going to remain open. I knew that many politicians were stupid but this just takes the cake.

  • My folks run a country pub.. due to these ridiculous laws they have to kick the local footy team out before 11pm or pay 1000's extra per year for liquor Licence fees. SOoooo wrong on so many levels. As you said, hasn't even sovled the problem. Maybe they should enforce the existing laws (RSA) before inventing new ones.

  • Changes to the liquor licence laws were just a screen by the government so they could be seen to be doing something. It smacks of a lack of understanding of both inner city violence (Drugs) and the live music culture in Melbourne both of which are unrelated. Well done SLAM for highlighting this act of ignorance by the Brumby government!

  • Great work to all that went. Well done
