Now running rooms on Thursday nights in Sydney and Melbourne! A Fitzroy local wrote a review full of photos from last week’s big opening at Vibe in Fitzroy, which went very well.

So what are they doing this week?

The original Sydney room at The Friend in Hand pub in Glebe offers the chance to catch Special Guest Wil Anderson’s new show Wilosophy before he takes it on tour. The night is headlined by Matthew Kenneally, MCed by Steve Sheehan and includes the usual open mic session, where you can catch some up and coming comics.

The new room at Vibe in Fitzroy offers this lineup for its second week:
Headliner Charlie Pickering
MC Daniel Moore
Also on this week is, Justin Kennedy, Adam Rozenbachs, Geraldine Hickey, Dave Bushell, Steele Saunders and Courteney Hocking.

You can find more details at their website, and hopefully Melbourne can forgive them for the error that originally placed the Vibe in Collingwood rather than Fitzroy - I’m sure the artwork will be fixed soon.
