OH!! no I WISH!

1 litre of milk is about AUD$1.40
1 can of coke from non supermarket is about $2.00

and our minimum wage is just under $12.00 per hour last time i checked...

Jesus, Australia seems to be very expensive... Is beer cheaper than milk and coke? I would prefer that kinda drink then. I've heard that beer should taste good...but of course i don't know.

awww, thank you mono

well, 90% of it is about the music, but 10% is the people! I don't think I've ever come across such a friendly subculture...and in my 36 years I've been associated in a lot of different 'groups'

I have found my home in metal!!!

I think they are close in price.

I just had a look and on special you can buy a case (24) of stubbies (375 ml bottle) of Vic Bitter beer (a basic beer here) for about $30.

here comes my mathematics...

24 x 375 ml = 9 litres

$30 divided by 9 = approx $3.35 a litre in Australia

but I'm sure it works out cheaper if you buy longnecks (750 ml bottles)


Speaking of which... where's Xantia??!?!?! I have to thank her for the beer she gave me at Wacken - my father finally drank it last week (yes I carried it all the way home) and he said it was really nice! ahahh I don't like beer (but i have found i like the Belgian cherry beer - kreig)

@ Brat

I went to this pub called Forest Inn....it was alright...got hammered so didnt really matter...

Don't know if Tea Party is your cup of tea (pardon the pun)....but he tells me (my cousin) they play in Oz pretty often. have you caught any of their gigs?

 

[Brat]

lol

just about everyone here knows I don't like beer, but they are ok with that because they know I drink my vodka straight - like a good Russian

The Forest Inn was one of my haunts for years, but they haven't had a good metal night for a long time

 

[The Raven]

yea, they did play some AC/DC that night, though....

Yeah, like me, I've got different musical roots, but it is nice to have this metal home.
