Loved your web site, lots of memories, takes me back to another time long gone. I was backpacking in London in the early 90s [&] by 93 I had come back only to move out of mum and dads with my brother and sister. we rented a place out at chapel hill and proceeded to go to every rave possible, at the time my room was wall papered with rave flyers, I wish I still had some of those early ones but here are a few closer to the end of the 90s. scotty
‘Postcards from the Pits’ provides a pictorial history of the Brisbane music scene in the last decade of the 20th century.
Working for Scene Magazine photojournalist Jeff Polley roamed the streets of the city and Fortitude Valley, capturing both the musical acts of the day and the people who came to watch them.
The project aims to help document the Brisbane dance parties, hip hop and sound art communities from 1987-2001. I chose this period because it is when I lived in Brisbane and went to many (many) of these events. The hope is that one day there will be a printed / POD & online book - possibly a pdf/ipad book/zine too - until then, this site (& my email) is used to collate information.
