Not content with asking you to help me decypher my dreams, now I'd like your help with my weekly club Q + A please, dear Blogsphere.
As some of you may know, almost 11 years ago a couple of mates and I set up a club called Queer + Alternative as a reaction to the mainstream gay scene, which never played any of the sorts of bands that we were into. Over a decade later Q + A is still going strong, and this year we've been nominated as one of Melbourne's best weekly clubs in the 'one nighter' category of the annual Rainbow Awards.
Want to help me stack the voting in the best branch-stacking tradition of any political party you care to name? You do? Hurrah!
All you have to do is go here, register, and vote away - I'd also recommend voting for Troy Gurr from MCV in the Media category, and Claire Jackson from the Queer Film Festival in Woman of the Year, but that's entirely up to you. It should only take you a couple of minutes to complete.
Remember, a vote for Q + A is a vote for me, so show the love, people. ;-)
Does this make me corrupt, or just a successful lobbyist? Hmmmmm....... *walks off stroking chin in contemplation*

Haha, going through that questionnaire shows that I know fuck all about the gay communitiy... the only people I knew were those from outside it (John So etc).
I went to the Rainbow Awards once, would have been around 1998 or 1999. It was at the National Theatre and I was playing bass in a big band at the time and we were the house band for the evening. It was a fun night, although I was kind of intimidated by all the old queens, young 'un that I was, not gay or anything, heh. It was fun though.
11 years? Really? Faroutski.
I fondly recall the days back in 1997 when I'd slip in there, underage, to drink copius g&ts and pash strangers and dance dance dance.
Thanks Richard. Will vote.
Oh Mr Watts - I just visited Dave Mack's blog. I understand your pain, but it CRACKED ME UP that he chose 100% pure love as his song for you! I can imagine you busting that track out at Q&A this week.......
Will vote now.
I voted. Not that I knew what else I should pick.
In other news, an idea to keep you busy (not that you really need it right now): http://www.instructables.com/id/ESHD8ZGP0IET9K6HDW/
