Friday Club is where people go to have fun and unwind after a long week, catch up with friends and meet new people. You never quite know who you’ll meet at the next Friday Club.
Friday Club meets at a different venue every time. You don’t need to be a member to come along, just turn up (and bring whoever you want). Join the mailing list or check here for announcements for the next Friday Club.
Who knows how the night will turn out, but rest assured it’s always a lot of fun!
“I arrived in Melbourne knowing no-one and then I was invited to Friday Club and met kindred Friday drinks spirits.” -Hafid Saba

Time for Friday Club again, and the Friday Club Research Team has found a brand new (as in just-opened-a-few-days-ago) addition to Melbourne’s thriving bar scene. Next week, we’ll be at Ondergronds (Dutch for ‘underground’) and we’ve got a space reserved and 2 platters of finger food for just us, and drink specials will be on from 5pm to 8pm. That’s $4 house wine (red and white), $4 beer on tap (Heineken and Becks), and $5 basic spirits. See you there!
Date: 15 June 2007
Time: 6pm onwards
Venue: Ondergronds
Address: Basement 27 Russell St, Melbourne 3000 (Cnr Russell & Flinders Lane)
Phone: 03 9650 3708

Virb is the latest social networking site on the scene. It is Myspace, done right. Beautiful templates right off the bat, and much more customisable if you’re into that kinda thing. Conversely, if you visit someone’s page that looks like a bad car accident, you can also click on “remove customization” and get back to the default styles.
If you’re already on Virb, join the Friday Club group!
P.S My Virb Profile is “jonathanpoh”.

Anybody use Flickr at all? I’m just thinking, instead of putting FC photos in the gallery on this site, perhaps we could upload them on to Flickr and add them to a common photo pool, basically a shared album? Sound off in the comments below what you think of this idea.

Photos from the last Friday Club at Cabinet are now up in the Gallery section, courtesy of the lovely Stephanie who not only comes to Friday Club every single time, but also remembers to bring a camera and takes some pics for us! Thanks Steph!

Friday Club is going arty-farty and if you want a dose of culture, we’re going to ACMI at Fed Square for AD’dict, 90 minutes of cool and quirky French adverts with English subtitles, followed by a French cheese and wine cocktail party. AD’dict is organised by FACCI Junior, of whom some of their members are Friday Club regulars. Thanks guys!
Please note there is a cost to this event and you’d have to buy your ticket from the ACMI box office.

Let’s make the inaugural Friday Club “Arts” a good one and pave the way for similar outings.

From their site: “The Trust is located in the grandeur of the former Port of Melbourne Authority building, in Flinders Lane between Market Street and William Street. The Trust revels, not only in its historical influences, but as the most prestigious bar and restaurant in this part of Melbourne”
Looks like a great venue some people who’ve been highly recommend it.

Time: 6pm onwards
Venue: The Trust

Cabinet is the latest, very-well-hidden addition to Melbourne’s thriving bar scene.
The bar’s backers (Adam Kilgour, Erik Locke, Neil McCarthy and Josh Williams) are mates from Australia’s largest public relations firm – CPR (a Member of the Committee for Melbourne, and a supporter of Melbourne Cares).
They’ve teamed with one of Melbourne’s best bar managers, Kath Lunny, formerly of Hairy Canary on Little Collins Street, to create a place for journos, politicians and business people, where the stock in trade is good gossip and excellent food and drink.
As they say, “Traditionally cocktails have been shaken and stirred. Now they’re going to get spun.”
Date: 20 April 2007
Time: 6pm onwards
Venue: Cabinet
Address: 11 Rainbow Alley, Melbourne
Ph: 9654 0915

Happy Easter everyone, and hope you had a great long weekend. Thanks to all who came to Simon’s birthday party on Sunday. We all had a great time and the venue that Danielle and Mary chose—the Rooftop Cinema on the top of Curtin House, Swanston St.—was just brilliant! I do hope the bar stays open for a while yet even if the cinema has closed for the season. It would be a great FC venue!
