😊 After Work Social 🌿Meet New People ☀️

Fitzroy and surrounds low effort bar crawl and gig (British India)

**Eat Drink Dance Melbourne – Low‑Effort Band & Bar Hop (Inner North Edition)** Saturday 7 November 3:00pm → whenever people peel off Limit: ~12 odd people (regulars get priority) Expectation level: extremely low **Takeaway** A deliberately under‑organised, lightly or highly chaotic, social‑energy Saturday: Fitzroy rooftop drinks → free British India gig that will almost certainly drift off‑schedule. Perfect for this group’s flirty, informal, inner‑north vibe for the night. An asinine folly that people should not attend. **Event Flow** Stage 1 — Fitzroy Warm‑Up (3:00pm) Meet at Naked for Satan, Fitzroy. Rooftop, relaxed, easy to mingle, perfect for early arrivals and pre‑gig social pruning. Expect: casual chats, a few early drinks, people arriving in waves. Stage 2 — British India at The Punters Club (4:00pm) Walk over to the Punters Club for a free gig by Melbourne indie rock legends British India. This is the anchor point of the afternoon — loud, energetic, and ideal for a group that likes music without needing to pretend it’s organised. Stage 3 — After 6, Dunno - We'll see what happens, no shortage of places to go around Fitzroy, Collingwood and Northcote. Don't expect much in the way of co-ordination, this will be an ad hoc, inane and a leaderless outing. Think Monty python and Paul Hogan's Leo Wanker levels of randomness and drama. bring a fire extinguisher and crash helmet, handle bar moustache for the girls are preferred. Swamp creatures and lady noys are the order of the day. Better for people not to go or simply go sit in a park with a goon bag type of event. Bars will be chosen on the fly, people may disappear. Coordination level: minimal. Execution quality: questionable, poorly organised Fun potential: high. **Tone & Expectations** **-** This is a loose, informal, low‑effort Eat Drink Dance Melbourne event. - No bookings, no structured timing, no guarantees. - People can peel off at any point. - Regulars get priority for the~ 20 spots. - It’s a social wander, not a precision‑planned itinerary. No shows are still very removed from the group so do the right thing, although this being a more effort event I may be too lazy to care this time. If I don't know you the creep code applies **👥Waitlist & Gender Ratios** To keep things balanced and comfortable: Event capped at 12 or more people at my discretion, if my star signs are in favour i may increase this. Generally guys admitted only after a woman registers (to maintain ratios) at my discretion. Group regulars get priority access. Women can be a little flaky (we love them anyway), so I may accept 1–2 extra. **🧭The Creep Code** A refined social compass keeps the vibe safe, fun, and drama‑free So: No married/Seperated individuals or those already coupled up (generally) unless I know you. No Tinder Swindler‑style mingler **Guys**: Please Take Special Note Must have a clear face photo (no sunglasses, no blurry shadows, no “mysterious man in witness protection” Don't send unsolicited messages, that's creep gold. ⚠️Don't obscure your identity in other words No wide shots taken from a distance where you can't be identified No yacht/car/jet flexing — if your profile screams “crypto‑adjacent”, you will be gently declined If you are declined, update your profile photo to something less creepy and more classy **Girls**: No restrictions — privacy and safety first

Brunswick Scottish Party and Dance - BYO drinks etc

Please Note: Due to renovations of our normal hall we have a new place for December and the first 6 months of 2022. This is a smaller hall so numbers are limited. A ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee) is a night of traditional Scottish dancing. Join with the Brunswick Scottish Society and learn how to do fun dances, and have some BYO drinks. Don't worry if you don't know how to dance -- the lovely people will teach you. This is the best $5 night you'll ever have! This is like a big party in a hall with BYO drinks, BYO glass/cup, BYO food and lots of Scottish Dancing. Most of the dances are like square dances with everyone being told or shown what to do. A few of the dances are similar to those done at ballroom places such as the Pride of Erin Waltz, Parma Waltz, Charmain Foxtrot or Evening 3 Step. Don't worry if you don't know any, they teach you. It finishes early, about 11pm, which is good as it's cheap drinks (BYO) you are probably best to use Public Transport. The 96 Tram gets you back to the CBD quite quickly. Some of us pop around the corner after and go to the Lomond Hotel on Nicholson St. The Lomond Hotel normally has a good band and dancing with free entry. Note: The number 96 tram just outside the hotel is one of the trams that is now running all night. It is a family event so you can bring children who might enjoy learning to dance. There can be six or seven other children there or there may be none. FAQ: COST: $5 tickets at the door TIME: 7:45pm for an 8pm start LOCATION: 21 Harding St, Coburg VIC 3058 Note our normal hall is under renovation. Please don't go to Fleming Park Hall, 104 Victoria St., Brunswick East (the building just east of the Brunswick Bowls Club - 96 tram, stop #26. Note: If you end up at the tram terminus you have gone one stop too far. FOOD: Normally we bring food for a shared dinner - such as pasta, a salad, or cupcakes. Due to covid we are currently not having a shared dinner but you can bring snacks for yourself or immediate group at your table. DRINKS: bring your own + bring glasses/cups WEAR: plaid/tartan if you have it. It's not required, it's just way more fun! AFTER: drinks at the Lomond Hotel on Nicholson Note: This is being placed on a number of meetup groups and similar. We feel that having around 50 people dancing is quite good for this hall but previously had months with it going towards double this. Consequently we're now setting maximum RSVP numbers with the maximum being shared between groups. We monitor the total RSVPs over all groups and when we get enough people we cut off each group's maximum so that further RSVPs go onto wait lists.
