Scadalesque
- Texture
- Waaaay back in the old days (2007) once a month on a Thursday night at Good Luck you could hear the most shameless in electo-trash, rock and pop played with drunken enthusiasm by two lady Djs (or Lady Js) Doofus and Ubervoxx. There was cheap beer and tequila shots, and it was good. Then one lady J moved her ass to Melbourne and it was over. They had a "Last Scadalesque ever" they said, but it appears they LIED. With the return of Ubervoxx, the party will be back for one night only, with a bonus added year of obsessive music collecting.

Dancehall Cinema
- The Wellingtonista
- For those of you more inclined towards UK roots reggae culture than euro-beats, there's a little something for you at the Film Archive this Thursday 7th. The Archive, in collaboration with NiceUp - local reggae forum and dancehall specialists - present the premiere Australasian screening of Musically Mad, a doco that examines sound system culture and the UK roots reggae scene, interviewing some of the shining lights of the community, past and present, and providing an historical context for the Caribbean-influenced musical culture.
