News : PBS and RRR to simulcast final gig at The Tote

By on January 18, 2010

Tonight sees the end of an era for Melbourne live music, with the final gig ever set to take place at iconic Collingwood live music venue The Tote. Public broadcasters PBS and RRR are set to broadcast live from The Tote all evening for their last gig ever!

The lineup on the night includes Hoss, Legends Of Motorsport, The Drones, Dave Graney & The Lurid Yellow Mist, Dynamo, Deaf Wish, Guttersnipes, Kamikaze Trio, Dan Kelly’s Dream Band, Spencer P Jones & The Escape Committee, Cosmic Psychos, The Meanies, The Dacios,… Beaches…, Town Bikes, The Stabs, Johnny Casino, Bombshells, Digger & The Pussycats and more.

Unfortunately while there are no metal bands scheduled to play, the genre did have its own farewell to the venue Sunday night, with a lineup of emerging Melbourne metal sending the out-dated PA out in a blaze of glory.

Earlier this week The Tote announced it was closing its doors for the final time due to licensing issues relating to new legislation in Victoria.
