Today's event was aimed at dads, families and car lovers hence the bogans. That may be a sign of the times though, there are few indie places that's for sure. I'd say it got expensive and the inner north took over a lot. I mean I'm older, still alternative and obviously queer I would think, but I enjoy this side of town. I don't need to see lots of similar looking people, I've always been a black sheep among black sheep and cynical about scenes I think. I'm pretty sure plenty of people my age have stuck around who are what you describe, but it's mostly people in puffer jackets walking their dogs lol. Which I'm fine with. It's still inner city melbourne.
