Official Nanna Nights Launch

Overview

For a long time, my friends and I have not-so-secretly wished we were in a retirement village instead of finishing high school/working at Generic Retail Store or Government Job/writing uni essays/living the Hard Life. Retirees seem to just have great lives, you know? They live in a community with all their friends, play mah jong (undeniably the best board game ever), and for the most part, get to sit around and chew the fat all day. Hell, at the ripe age of 20 I still obnoxiously want that lifestyle, though deep down I know I have to “earn it” through decades of hard work, buying a house and maybe even pushing out a kid or two. In the meantime, though, I can settle for Nanna Nights.

Nanna Nights at Vinyl is not a new thing; in fact, it’s been kicking around for a little while now, providing that perfect mid-week musical hit you’ve been craving from local and interstate acts, while keeping your kidneys warm with its $15 Roast n’ Red special – just like Nanna would like. It’s finally having its official launch this Wednesday, with the help of The Gin Club’s Ben Salter, plus a couple of his friends. If you’re like me and prematurely dreaming of your senior’s card, or if you just like good food and music on a Wednesday, then Nanna Nights is where it’s at. I’ll be the one setting up the mah jong tiles.
