Lucky Bar, as The Vic Chic informs me, is just about the only place in Victoria worth dancing. Lucky Bar runs regularly with DJ Longshanks, and has a new Vice Magazine-sponsored party Lucky Loves You. If you get on that ferry to the island, make sure you stop off for Lucky Bar!

THE WHIP

We all know nu rave's life is limited, so thank god The Whip were smart enough to think of a backup plan. The Whip has found a way to combine 80s new wave and synth, while still appealing to the nu ravers. Nothing I can complain about there. Not now, at least.

FROG EYES
myspace.com/frogeyes
Victoria is the smallest city competing in STREET CLASH, and maybe its unofficial motto is "newlywed or nearly dead," but if this week will prove anything, it's that Victoria thinks bigger than it is. Frog Eyes is a perfect example. Carey Mercer's lyrics will have even the most lovestruck newlyweds re-evaluating their lives and heading straight to the divorce courts (half of them were going to end up there anyway). And the rest of the band will have the seniors setting records for noise complaints. If someone's going to bring Victoria into the limelight, it might as well be Frog Eyes.

SERGE GAINSBOURG
sergegainsbourg @ universal


What can I say, sometimes I get tired of what's current. Serge Gainsbourg was a genius, a pervert, and remarkably successful with the ladies, although you wouldn't know it by the look of him. Marilu is my personal favourite, have a listen and get yourself some culture.
