Post Melbourne visit show..
I spent a few days in Melbourne last week visiting record shops, missing shows and turning up to late for instores...

Luckily I was a able to find a top class public house to wet my whistle. Mrs Parma's at 25 Little Bourke St. As well a great record store primed with fine releases in return for my dollars. Missing Link at 405 Bourke St.

Make sure when you are in Melbourne that you drop in and visit these places for great friendly service.
