This Melbourne Cup Day (Tues, Nov 6), remember that horse racing is a barbaric, brutal example of what passes for sport, with the exploitation of animals at the core of its greedy gambling heart.

So come celebrate another pointless public holiday with a FREE fun-filled event at the Northcote Social Club featuring The Galaxy Folk, Monnone Alone, The Truffle Pigs (Steph & Al from Dick Diver) and Zachary Schneider (Totally Mild/Great Outdoors).

This is an early show with doors at 4pm.

We would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri people who are the Traditional Custodians of this Land. We would also like to pay respect to the Elders both past and present of the Kulin Nation and extend that respect to other Indigenous Australians.
