Description:
The warning from Sweet Jelly Roll for this month's edition is ‘Dress to kill or be killed'. Take it serious, this isn't your grandma's club. Well it sort of is - ‘50s and ‘60s R&B, big hair, greaser jackets, and girls that look prettier than any other era. Yeah, I called your grandma hot right there. With a lineup of knowledgeable DJs including Pearl Jackson, a live performance of The Birds by Edie Beale and a full stage show with a million stick-on feathers at midnight, this is probably the most unique party happening in Melbourne at the moment, and there is no better time to go than All Hallows Eve. - PC

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.
