The Hi-Fi

With my impending journey home to Oz, I was very excited to hear that Brisbane is finally getting another live music venue that will add to the scene already populated by such venues as the Tivoli, the Zoo and the Troubadour.

The Hi-Fi replaces the old Pavilion in West End and I think is aimed at filling the void left by the unfortunate demise of Festival Hall.

The Hi-Fi has its opening gig by the Drones on 29 April. Upcoming gigs include Little Birdy, The Grates, Ratatat (supported by Brisbane's own Quan from Regurgitator -go see him, we saw him in HK a few months ago and he is awesome!) and British India.

The addition of a new and larger venue means more gigs and touring artists in Brisbane - yay!

Pity they are not opening a branch in Hong Kong or Singapore at that...
