These gay arse laws are stupid and greatly frustrate me. Why is it that laws must be changed so radically to satisfy the wants of a minority? Everyone crank the AC/DC classic 'Rock 'n' Roll Ain't Noise Pollution' and stick it to these wankers.
Sydney used to be one of the best live band cities in Australia, its time to take back that title and hold on to it tightly.Yes get rid of shitty poker machines, and bring back live red hot ass kicking bands.
i think the amount of poker machines in N.S.W is disgusting and they hav destroyed many many families yet the government is making too much money off them to stop them. Live music has so many benefits so much more positive than pokies
i support this petition.
whats the difference between 100 people in a pub watching the footy to 100 people watching a great local acoustic act!?
fair go! i am a publican in the inner west with many talented musos living within walking distance. love to get them on stage.
I spendmost of my time as a pro musician in other states and other countries and from what I see, NSW is one of the most unfriendly states for live music endeavour in the whole world!
even though I'm not a musician, i represent part of a large but unfortunately largely silent group, Concerned Drinkers Against Corporate Pubs and Pokies.
Changes need to take place else the art of live music and entertainment will die. We will not be creating the stars of tommorrow because they will not be practcing their craft today.
because i am a musician who likes to be able to work, and i wish for sydney to exist with some level of vibrancy rather than become a cultural wasteland.
I've often worked in clubs where sports telecasts occur at the same time as live entertainment, and in the same area. Would be nice if equal treatment was the order of the day.
