What we’re about
NOTE - this is a dedicated group for like-minded people to talk alternative music and see live bands. If you are joining just to go to our restaurant meetups, please consider joining my other group Sydney Over 30’s Restaurant Lovers instead.
Did you stop clubbing years ago (or still even go) and miss having conversations with people who get your alternative music and cultural references? Wish you had someone to go and see live music and events with?
If you were/are in an alternative subculture or just a Alt music lover, whether it be punk, goth, grunge, alternative, indie, industrial, rockabilly, new wave, hard rock, metal, britpop - whatever, then join us for gigs, dinners, drinks and movies.
Check out our INSTA PAGE with vids and pics of previous and upcoming events
Suggestions always welcome - feel free to comment on the main page.
Note I go to most, but not all events, but I like to post up events and gigs I think people are interested in. If I’m not attending I will indicate this.
Rules n' stuff
Please only RSVP if you intend to come. No shows mean that people on the waitlist don't get to go and it's often embarrassing to explain to the restaurants in particular that we are down in numbers. No shows who don't make contact with me will be removed from the group.
This is a diverse group, so please show respect to everyone and respect members privacy.

The Pixies have just announced their own sixe show in Sydney as part of their tour supporting Pearl Jam.
“Forming in Boston, Massachusetts in 1986, Pixies are often acclaimed as the most influential, pioneering alternative band of the late 80s, garnering extraordinary critical and popular acclaim. After five genre-defining studio albums, Pixies disbanded in 1993. The tide turned in 2004 - the band reunited and began touring, playing to sell-out crowds around the world including their first-ever Australian performances in 2007, later to be followed by a 13-show sold-out Doolittle tour in 2010 and again in 2017.Pixies will release their brand new and eighth studio album, Beneath The Eyrie, on September 13 (through Infectious/BMG). Visceral, musically cinematic, otherworldly but strangely familiar and a bit unsettling – the album boasts 12 new tracks produced by GRAMMY nominated Tom Dalgety (Ghost, Royal Blood, Pixies' Head Carrier). Lead single “On Graveyard Hill,” is an in-your-face, classic Pixies tale of imminent, ominous doom. Fans can pre-order the album now. The evolution of the album’s creative process is uniquely documented in a 12-episode podcast entitled It’s a Pixies Podcast.”
