Sounds like a good plan.

I don't really have any good insight on the best of Melbourne I'm afraid.

I'm a 40-something dad who doesn't get out much :)

And I've only been here for 6 years.

Is there anything in particular you're into?

If you're after nightlife there's plenty of great bars.

My favourite "secret" bar is New Gold Mountain (the door with the bike above it).

#Melbourne

Melbourne, Australia.

Perth (Western Australia) is my hometown.

It's winter here.

Melbourne is cold, drab and wet in winter.

Perth is cold as well (relative to here), but very sunny.

I always miss home in winter (haven't been home since 2009), but I'm feeling particularly homesick at the moment.

Might be time for a visit soon.

To add to this, it's Jesse that started out as the low-life meth producer with a name and reputation.

Quite the contrast between the journeys of these two.

My wife and I met in Yahoo Chat, 10 years ago.

Neither of us were actively looking for action, we were just shooting the shit in our hometown chatroom.

Swervedriver.

Superchunk.

I've been listening to these guys just about every day for over 20 years now.

Shit never, ever gets old to me.

There's other bands that always make it back in my rotation, but these two bands never leave it.

And not a single mention of Silk Road?

It's been posted quite a bit.

Jesus Was way Cool was pretty popular at the time as well.

For those with a penchant for the absurd:
