Overview
With the weather getting warmer, the evenings getting lighter and the slightest suggestion of summer in the air, it is definitely time to crawl out from behind duvet and get out on the town. And with The Standard opening this week, you now have your first port of call.
The Standard, Sydney's newest multi-purpose performance space, is officially opening its doors to the public this Thursday and warming up the space with the sounds of Bluejuice, Millions, Step-Panther and Splash Mountain DJs. This will be backed up with an impressive roster of shows in the coming weeks, including Custard's first Sydney gig since 1999.
Located on level three of Kinselas, one of Sydney's landmark drinking establishments, The Standard will be dedicated to live music, visual art, theatre, comedy and burlesque. In its former life it played host to the Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and The Lemonheads, and now it is set to make a comeback and breathe some new life into Sydney's live music scene. Definitely an incentive to get off the couch.
