Description:
Triple J is putting on shows at The Toff now. Will the youth network never stop? Don't you try to stop the youth! They won't swear at you, but they'll definitely say stuff like 'Golly, Zan says you're a shiter'. This week it's a live recording of Tame Impala and Oh Mercy. Entry is free so you might as well listen to it one the radio because that's as close as you'll get to the bar.
Slagging off emos is totally fun. And easy! I mean, look at those fringes - they're enormous! And what's funnier than a huge fringe? Badly applied kohl and Fall Out Boy, that's what!
The thing is, since we've read Craig Schuftan's book, the pleasure we used to get from yelling out "Nice fringe, fringey.

ThreeThousand is a subcultural guide to Melbourne, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Melbourne writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence ThreeThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
