The Roth Army Slingin' Pussy Bar and Grill

[lms2]

I so need to move...

If you drive an hour, you get a little more choice in bars... but then I might be tempted to drink. They are really tough on DUI's around here.

[sambo]

Thought I'd dig out a gig guide for you.. this is one of the reasons I love Melbourne.. whether it be music, theatre, comedy etc, everyone supports the arts down here..
