Re: Soundwave Festival dead due to ACC?

truly disgraceful.

ACC just keep outdoing themselves.

I noticed Stephen Yarwood's response on the facebook page's discussion board.

I've seen his posts here as well and he seems to be one of the more honest and non-nimby councillors, hopefully he can help us.

[COM] Re: SOS for 'dying' Rundle Mall

wow it's as if they just made that article in order to bait the adelaide now comments haha.

Rundle Mall seems pretty standard as far as malls go

the shops are a bit ordinary and suburban like though

I find myself spending a lot more time on rundle street

Re: I just got back from Melb and I want to cry

You know something funny? We DO have a load of small and funky bars in Adelaide. Why don't the people who complain that we have none, go and frequent the ones that we do have so that there's demand for more? I can't continue drinking for all of you. I don't recover in the mornings as well as I used...
