Hi Mechmanau, you and anybody are more then welcome down on a Monday night, yes its still going. People normally start turning up around 7 o'clock, some earlier some not!! And you find that by talking and watching you won't be left out and you certainly wont be a beginner for long... Everyone is very friendly and always willing to help!!

Welcome Mechmanau! See you on Monday night! Sometimes new people come down and forget to come and say hello to us. *Us* is pretty obvious: we are the ones who seem to know each other, who are not the break dancers

Do people still go to these?
I'm heading up to Brissie for Woodford and probably looking to stay for a bit and if people could either offer a weary UK traveller a temporary place to stay, room to let or reccommend a good area to look for a place.
Either that or go WOOFing afterwards.
Looking forward to spinning with you guys...

Quite a few people regularly go to this, they just aren't that active on here.
There are half a dozen youth hostel a short distance from Roma Street Station. No idea what they are like. I think there are also a few out at Kangaroo Point and West bank

Ya for sure, this is Monday Night Juggle Jam! It's not a workshop, its just people playing.. no guru no teacher no promises! There's usually a bunch of hip hop kids too and assorted jugglers and passers through. SOmetimes its small, sometimes big. HoPers are Ry, me, gita and guy, jen/sureau.. and basstones and Misguided Joel Oracle elke MoonPixie and allsorts really.
if for some reason the Piazza is being used, we go down to the Busker's Pitch at the artificial beach about a block away.
