Casey Nightrider Update

Brumby still won’t give the largest population of clubbers one. It needs a new, direct route.

Bus tours

Nightclub bus tours are a lot of fun. A bus, your friends, four clubs and competitions. You’re all on a bus, so nobody has to worry about driving. Its a great night out. See our bus tours page.
  Trouble in Queen St: Liquor Licensing needs an overhaul

LIQUOR LICENSING AND THE GOVERNMENT ARE LARGELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECENT TROUBLE IN QUEEN ST AND BINGE DRINKING! Why? Because they won't regulate bottle shops, they've made underage events almost extinct and LLC doesn't have a coordinated plan.

Having said that, we're talking about a small number of thugs in a small handful of places we can choose to avoid, creating a media frenzy.

So much of the problem is people being drunk before they even go out. Whilst clubs have to train staff on "Responsible Service of Alcohol" and have limits on drink prices, bottleshops do $10 RTD four packs. When people are loaded up, they are knocked back at a club, they gather on the streets and trouble flares.

Its made worse when Liquor Licensing allow too many venues in one place and none in others. Then they allow all these little bars who don't know what they're doing. If the inspector in Melbourne likes bars, they all seem to be supported, whilst the inspectors in some suburbs make it impossible to trade.

Finally, they have put so many conditions on underage events that venues won't run them. That means that the first clubbing experience now involves alcohol, etc rather than being in an alcohol free environment.

Its a small problem that can be so easily overcome by overhauling LLC with some input from people who understand clubbing.
