Concrete Playground

Sydney's last bastion of the super club scene has been through a number of changes in recent years, including a brief flirtation with live indie music. Homeless is their latest offering, treading new ground for the venue and for the Sydney scene. Cleverly catering to the new, educated, left-inclined crowd but with the weight to pull big names, this could finally be an authentic alternative to Subbies.

With Lucas Abela AKA Justice Yeldham at the controls, it's no surprise that the debut features such luminaries as No Moa Duramma, a side project of two members of experimental Japanese act the Boredoms, and Zach Hill, a member of Hella who also collaborates with Greg Saunier of Deerhoof, Kid 606 and members of Mars Volta (amongst others). A line up like this one entirely justifies venturing out on a school night.
