The Strike-Outs
The Jane Does
The MoshPit, St Peters, NSW
Saturday, April 1 2023
Punk rock takes us all back to a simpler time when schooners were cheaper, carpet was stickier and life much simpler.
The humble MoshPit bar at the St Peters end of King Street in Sydney aims to capture that simple spirit. It’s all dive bar ambience and vintage posters, and its modest capacity and open-door booking policy make it a much-needed nursery for the city’s underground bands.
This show was a mix of the old and the new. It was a 3pm kick-off and the place resembled the back bar of an RSL club at two-up start-time on ANZAC Day with a battalion of old soldiers lining its walls.
