On a technicality I can truthfully state that I once DJ'd at Revolver in 1998.
(It was an acquaintance's 21st birthday party on a Mon or Tues night in the front room, attended by about 50 people, and I was terrible. The friend I was helping became a pro DJ a bit later. I certainly didn't).
Great days.
- doctor_eval 3y agoThat’s fantastic. I started going after moving to Melbs around ‘98… was reasonably regular for around ten years I guess! I didn’t make it all that often to the daylight hours, but my god when I did, those all nighters were something to behold. And that 24 hour bottle shop up near Dandenong road was quite handy for the after party too.
- glenngillen 3y agoOne of my most giggle inducing experiences at Revolver was a guy who’d bought a whole huge bunch on bananas from the fruit shop downstairs on a Sunday morning. I watched him shimmy and dance his way past the couches and decks, handing out bananas as he went. As he approached the bar all he had left was the one he was eating, so he put the last piece in his mouth and gave two guys leaning against the bar his empty skin. They must’ve been on LSD, because it seemed like the most amazing thing they’d ever seen. The spent minutes holding up and gazing at it in wonder. Before dropping it on the floor and taking it in turns trying to slide on it like a cartoon character would (but barely moving a centimetre). Two trippers just having the absolute time of their lives while the rest of the chaos continued around them, everyone oblivious to it.
