Well... yes it's the city of churches, but suicides? Comparing it to
Canberra? Quit smoking your crackpipe.  I don't know what to make of the
other email?!

Cube Music in Rundle Street East is ok.

I lived there for 16 years, it's certainly one of the nicer cities I've
lived in, almost a big country town. Historically, from a electronic
dance music point of view, it was arguable the birth place of it all in
Australia, thanks to the aformentioned HMC.
