The two best places would be..

PERIL UNDERGROUND

In an alley, the first left if your walking up Elizibeth St
from Flinders St. Just between the cheap one dollar pizza
shops. Just follow the smell. In Peril you'll find videos,
CD's, Records, Clothing & Tatoos & Piercings. Excellent
selection of goth/industrial as well as breakcore, drum &
bass/drill & bass etc

Synestasia Records

Excellent and wide selection of electronic music!! This
place will usually have somthing you didnt expect to find.
The store owner Marks recomendations are always helpful. You
must visit this store!

Internet : http://www.synrecords.com

Level one
28 block place
Melbourne

while on the topic of melbourne, what's the deal with the
trams. is it a - hop on/off whenever you want kind of thing,
or are there stops? what about tix? i've heard you can just
get on, and if there's a controller dude just jump off and
catch the next tram?

looks like i won't be catching the prince a wales gig :/ ah
well ..

Get yourself a day ticket for the Met and you can
hop-on/hop-off trams, buses and trains. One ticket does the
lot. You have to get day tickets at a newsagent because they
only sell 2 hour tickets on the trams themselves.

Anyone got spare tickets for the POW? $$$'s

There are ticket machines on the trams for you to... heh.
BUY A TICKET baahahaha. and with that ticket you validate it
with them validaters on the trams so you can kinda do it
yourself kinda. I rarely buy a ticket, but just be careful
for those imspectors.. $150 on the spot fines, ouch!

and hey, what happened with ya main man? hope you didnt miss
afx, did you see him in NZ yeh???

my not-so-very-main-man anymore didn't get round to it in
time :'( ..

but yeah, centurix if you get info about some tix floating
around i'd be keen ..

I did get to see him at the BDO in auckland, but was really
looking forward to the Galatos gig . . . that got cancelled
last minute due to promotional issues with BDO people.

BDO was pretty good .. though from what the GoldCoast/Sydney
people have been saying the akl affair sounded pretty
subdued ..

dunno .. was looking forward to an AFX downunder binge ;)
