I passed this pub in Fitzroy on the way to Kimya Dawson's gig last night. My very first job in Melbourne, almost ten years ago, was pulling beers and pouring bogan&cokes here, and many, many happy memories are married to this pub in my colander-like mind [i.e. i live in hope that the important things get captured and the dross filters through to the drain]. It appears to be sadly untenanted at the moment, and its past is as chequered as an MRI of my brain would be, but the building alone bulges with history - therefore i expect it to be turned into yuppie dogboxes at any moment...
