What are you most looking forward to about the Darebin Music Feast, and why?
The opportunities it provides for people of all ages and of all tastes to go out and see some great live music whenever they feel like it!
What have you liked about previous Darebin Feasts?
There’s always a friendly, family-orientated atmosphere at Darebin Feasts that is great to be a part of.
Do you think there’s a danger that people can take the music scene for granted in Darebin, and elsewhere in Melbourne, especially given the difficulty for musicians to make a living from music and the pressure of rising rental and venue operation costs?
We are pretty spoilt for choice here in Melbourne but I think most people acknowledge how lucky we are to have such a diverse music scene that’s so easily accessible. I think most musicians have a fairly realistic perspective. It’s undeniably tough, which is something you learn almost immediately so I think it’s pretty difficult to take the scene for granted. Likewise, most fans and audiences are genuinely appreciative and supportive.
