Protest against the proposed 2am lockout
Spread the word!!!
Protest: Friday 30 May, 5pm, Parliament House steps
• This will be a peaceful alcohol and drug-free protest.
• We are working with the police and local council to ensure that the protest is conducted legally and peacefully.
• The protest will feature:
o Industry and celebrity spokespersons
o Live music from Australian artists (STCA)
o Banners, posters and signs
o All protesters wearing White T-Shirts (looks uniform and is the traditional colour of peace)
o Free Red Bull and Nutrient Water to keep protesters happy and hydrated
Protest after-party
• Proposed venue: the Palace Theatre (formerly the Metro)
• Free entry for protesters, $20 donation otherwise (to be put towards associated costs and further actions)
• Entertainment by top Melbourne and Australian artists
• Pass-outs will be available after 2am
• A proportion of bar profits should by all rights be donated to the cause

Dude, do you understand the importance of this protest.
.Anything that effects venues will effect musos, just think about playing a show for example at the pony. Yeah you head line a show there at 2a.m then you go to load out but you can't come back in, or even worse you don't get to load all your gear out.
That is just one of many reasons we need to stop this idea that its going to be better to have a 2a.m lock out. |
