Introducing … The ‘M+N’ Lunchbox

In the vein of Casual Fridays, Cupcake Mondays, Suicide Tuesdays and other workplace traditions, M+N will kick off a new lunchtime gig series at 1000 £ Bend on February 5.

Held monthly, the “M+N Lunchbox” will feature a free performance by a local act in The Bend’s purpose-built exhibition space, one of the largest in Melbourne’s CBD. Playing our inaugural gig is Denim Owl, a dreamy indie-pop duo featuring Janita Foley and Aleks Bryant from Aleks & The Ramps. The pair, who are currently in New Zealand for Campus A Low Hum, will be performing songs from their debut EP, The Dream Pocket. The show will start at 1pm.

Can’t reschedule that power lunch with Jenny from accounts? Don’t fret. Each show will be filmed for M+N TV.

Is this place licensed now, then?
More importantly, is LAMF running the kitchen yet?


anonymous  said about 7 months ago:

tangy_zizzle  said about 7 months ago:

Good place for more shows I reckon. Shame I can't make it in to the city at lunch though.


untold/animals  said about 7 months ago:

They do serve beer I think. They have obnoxious beer ads all over the place.


anonymous  said about 7 months ago:

obnoxious beer

those microbrewery names are getting ridiculous.

M+N is definitely moving up in the world.

i love you untold/animals. more than you will ever know. one day we shall meet.


MichaelDudikoff  said about 7 months ago:

Did Danny high-five anyone ?

I did see jose surveying his fiefdom from the back.


untold/animals  said about 7 months ago:

In the meantime, enjoy the smell.


postergirl  said about 7 months ago:

Thank you anok.


Block  said about 7 months ago:

enjoy the smell.

...of gusseting's bubblegum-scented plastic clogs?


untold/animals  said about 7 months ago:

Sure, why not. Enjoy each others' smells, one and all.


FrankieTeardrop  said about 7 months ago:

It's a good space, but the sound was indeed quite echo-ey. Concrete floor, brick walls and high ceiling made sure of that. Still, it's got heaps of potential. I'd love to hear a loud rock band there.


LoadMyRig  said about 7 months ago:

but but WE SAW M_HORSE


FrankieTeardrop  said about 7 months ago:

This is true.


MichaelDudikoff  said about 7 months ago:

I saw you on the way out FT and was going to come over and say hi to you and jose but I realised how disastrously late I would be way back at the other end of the city.

I wasn't sure if the sound was so echoey just because I was on the side, almost behind the speakers.

I'd love to hear a loud rock band there.

Yeah, it would be nicely brutal methinks.


FrankieTeardrop  said about 7 months ago:

We almost had a full set of Melbourne M+N writers there. Must have another ''round table'' soon.


MichaelDudikoff  said about 7 months ago:

In between not talking about my shoes and/or jeans, Block did mention this too.

Lawson ? I thought I saw him near me but I was mid-conversation.


untold/animals  said about 7 months ago:

Sounds medieval.


MichaelDudikoff  said about 7 months ago:

It's very medieval. It involves flagons of beer.


LoadMyRig  said about 7 months ago:

tell me who the cute photographer dude in the red check shirt is.


fakeplasticme  said about 7 months ago:

I missed this. I am sad.

Were saganaki burgers had?


lawson  said about 7 months ago:

Dudikoff, I'm not coming to another roundtable unless Block promises to stop mocking my shirt and shoe combo.


MichaelDudikoff  said about 7 months ago:

He's a harsh judge, that's for sure. I could see him drift into reveries of insults when I appeared, like an unattractive tight-jeaned, pointy-black-shoed apparition, before him.

It's lucky he's a suave bastard. I wouldn't take such guff from a mere mortal.


gusseting  said about 6 months ago:

NO SAGANAKI BURGERS. i was rather peeved about that, as it sounded like a taste sensation.


Zaphod  said about 6 months ago:

Denim Owl are amazing. Aleks drums like brrrappta-tah-phsssh.
