    Certainly did. Granty was a great player.

      The Irish wasn’t the greatest pub in the world but it certainly did have character.

      Lots of stuff has shut down at Knox. The Maccas in the food court no longer there and Myer closing down in July.
      What's going on down there Easty? It used to be always bustling.

          Knox has been slated for a massive redevelopment for YEARS, and it looks like it's actually going to happen shortly.

          I think Westfield want to make it "Chadstone of the East" and I couldn't think of anything more ghastly.

          Looks like I'll be shopping at Boronia mall if that happens.

            Looks like there's a bit for everyone at Boronia Mall:

                Vermont South shopping centre certainly needs a makeover as well.

                  If I may do a small piece of self promotion whilst promoting a 'new' pub in Footscray.

                  My band Eugene Hamilton and the Money are playing Thursday night at Hotel Westwood in Napier street. (formerly the reverence).

                  The venue has been taken over and refurbished by James Young who runs the Cherry Bar in the city.

                  It's a very tasty refit with brand new PA system and cantina / street style Mexican food.

                  We are playing every Thursday night. Entry is free. Band kicks off around 7.30pm.

                    Rumour circulating that a certain renovation TV show has purchased the Mona Castle for an up coming season.

                      Had a great Parma at the Prince Albert Hotel in Williamstown today. Some chips were a bit under the Parma but not all

                        Will be interesting to see what happens next with that place.

                          Is that the Hound Dog Young from back in the day? I reckon that Bill Walsh from Cosmic Psychos had something to do with running the Cherry Bar.

                          Chops told me a couple of weeks ago that he Rev is up and running again.

                          The Price Albert? Seriously? Whatever you do don't agree to any piercings next time you're there.
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                              Nope. Can't see the attraction myself either.

                                I'm sure you calmly and methodically threw chairs around the place until they fixed it Eastdog.
