Indoor - Stray
STRAY is about random adventure and escape. STRAY is about pretending that Brisbane is Ferris Bueller's Day Off and that fun and money aren't mutually exclusive. STRAY is cheap hijinx, cheap dates and the outings you could be planning while you're actually watching Video Hits on a weekend at 11am.

Brisbane Comedy Festival 2010 as told by Comedian Tom Ballard
Hey Brisbane, are you ready to laff (sic)?!
Good. That really is the best attitude to have, particularly when there is a comedy festival approaching.
Actually, the 'laughing' is really a bit of a bonus. The real question is "Are you ready to go through a ticket-booking process and attend a venue at a specific time?.
Home Brewing
So ya wanna drink beer right, you also have no money, and you're reaaaaaally lazy. WHAT TO DO!? Well have I got a tip for YOU!
Get yourself a sciencey buff who is into researching and studying up on anything (ANYTHING) and team them up with a friend who is so pent up with mood swings that they are looking for something (ANYTHING) to do with their hands.
Faster Pussycat! The secret vintage sale night
I know this chick that says buying vintage from vintage dealers is like cheating - you didn't find it yourself and you didn't experience the thrill of the chase by pulling that Diane Freis original from the ‘daggy dresses' bin at Vinnies.
Touché - she's got a point. But let's face it - the stock is drying up.
2high Festival 09 - Unleash the Beast
Unleash the Beast - you'd be forgiven for thinking this festival was for lion tamers or never-nudes coming out of their cut-offs. But you'd be wrong - it's this years 2high Festival theme - still pretty exciting though right?
In its 16th year, 2high has a proven history of presenting young and emerging artists into the creative cultural ecosystem of our fine city.
Lick It's 3rd Birthday
We're sad to announce that Lionel Richie won't be attending Lick It's 3rd birthday. BUT he did call to dedicate a special song to the boys, singing into the phone "you're once, twice, three times a lady and I love you". It was a tear-filled moment they'll never forget.
I think Lionel was afraid his Canadian Tuxedo wouldn't match up to Brit and JT's classy double denim number.

Remember Art Attack? The pastel-coloured nineties DIY art show with the gregarious host who helped kids discover the creative potential of pipe cleaners and cardboard sheets? I do. When he used garlic powder to make a large-scale image of Dracula I nearly lost my eight-year-old shit.
Well, imagine if someone applied the same step-by-step instruction principle to adult things like ironing pants and overcoming fear.
