Holy Crap Perth is covered in Graffiti!

If you’ve been out and around at gigs like Easy Tiger at Shape and Jukeboxxxx at the Norfolk basement, you may have noticed a new name popping up in the midst of the lineups. Sleepyhead is getting around and he’s just released a mix for free. Think Hollertronix/Girltalk – check it out and share the [...]

The Voltaire twins are shooting a music video for their track D.I.L. and they need you to lend a hand! Literally. Asking for all kinds of hands, including varying skin tones, bendy fingers and marks such as scars and tattoos. So if you want your 15 mins of fame (or rather if you want your [...]

Whether you’re new to the Perth Veg*n Social Scene or just agoraphobic (the only two examples I could come up with in my head) and haven’t yet heard about PAWS or their food distribution program, here’s the skinny: The People & Animal Welfare Society’s new HQ is located at 110 Beaufort Street in Northbridge, a [...]

After giving a rant about where not to shop, I thought I’d afford readers a list of where I think you SHOULD shop. So here it is – warning however – they aren’t wallet friendly, though I’ve tried to skip the more expensive retailers. Also it’s not ‘top 10′ cause I thought the length of [...]

I hate ‘fashion’ outlets that flood the market with the same cheap ‘stock’ crap. I’m talking cotton-on, rubi shoes, supre etc. I can’t dispute that from time to time you can find really nice things, and that sometimes a girl just needs a simple singlet or skirt. However when places like these become the go-to [...]

Wasteland is a store located upstairs on King street that houses a rich variety of art and culture from Australia and around the world. It’s a ‘concept’ store, similar to Colette in Paris, featuring sculpture work by George Kustorkov originally made in the 1970′s for ‘Cardin Salon International’, a full length mural wall by Sydney [...]

It’s that time of year again and RTRfm are holding their annual In the Pines concert at UWA. Seeing as I remember writing about this last year, I think I missed this blog’s first birthday. Speaking of birthdays, In the Pines is on the 26th of April, which is MY birthday so I think you [...]

The rest is for you to find out… HA – SECRET SOCIETY OF COSMIC DANCE The Heavenly Ascension To The Secret Society Of Cosmic Dance Every Wednesday night 7pm till late (Launch party! 1st April) In a world full of so much disposable dance music, trendy hedonism and ear grating soulless music comes a night [...]

Hey Im new here. Im Cale, a.k.a. Sleepyhead. As a friend of your favorite blog mistress, I was asked to contribute to this blog and seeing as I am trying to procrastinate from uni work, I figured this was a good a way as any. PS I’m not actually a vegan/vegetarian, but i have no [...]

First post for the new year – and what a find! I was looking for presents for a loved one and as I was walking down Hay street away from King street and toward the malls, I chanced upon this lovely store. It’s definitely tucked away and a little hard to find, but packed full [...]

Tame Impala is an Australian band that is getting lots of press at the moment – if you’ve been look closely at a lot of lineups for recent and upcoming gigs and festivals, you’ll see their name popping up quite a bit. They’re currently supporting MGMT on their national tour, and will be coming back [...]

Ohh! Crapp… is actually the name of a top music blog that features primarily Australian music. Not sure if it falls within blogging ettiquette to plug other blogs but I think this justifies an exception. Good music always recommended, and they’ve done quite a few interviews too, including teenagersintokyo, bitchee bitchee ya ya ya, the [...]

Tonight! Cultural Centre! Free! People Power is a program designed to generate good times, generate thought about issues of sustainability, and generate electricity. Generate electricity? People power? No, this isn’t The Matrix, because thankfully there are no robots. It is more about bicycles powering 1000 LED lights, flying high above the Cultural Centre. Along with [...]

Minkpink clothing is hot. Minkpink is a fresh clothing label right here from Aust, and they’ve seen an unprecedented amount of growth since the brand started out in 2005. It’s no wonder, their pieces are just fabulous. As stated on their website, they take influence and ideas from ‘high-end designers, current trends, street styling and [...]

Oh wow, Artrage is here and the Prom’s this friday. Who are you taking? (who am I taking for that matter, none of my friends can make it D=) With bands like Gameboy/Gamegirl, Oohee, So So Modern, Boys Boys Boys!, Voltaire Twins, Shazam, Super Supreme Team and local vegan rtr dj Dave Cutbush, it’s set [...]

I know it’s probably unfair how I keep talking about pigeonhole to the exclusion of other stores. However, Pigeonhole is celebrating its first birthday, with drinks in-store on friday, oct. 10th from 5pm to 9pm. I also do realise that a lot of our readers are on the pigeonhole mailing list and probably already know [...]

A nice fellow from the country emailed me regarding when and where Young and Restless would be performing in Perth. So I had a bit of a look around and in the meantime found that I had a Young and Restless album in my library. I started listening. Fucking brilliant. Full of energy and vibe [...]

(click on any of the thumbnails to see a larger view) The side of Paws recently got a makeover as some cool guys came and did an awesome mural type thing. Graffiti at its best. Paws is a not-for-profit animal rights group that is really cool. Lots of vegan food like icecream and chocolate for [...]

Go go go !! Johann’s posted the event on facebook so 400+ people know about it already. Better hurry! It runs for two weeks and its purpose is to clean out the old stock to make room for the new spring stock. “The little birdies are announcing the end of winter, so it’s time to [...]
