There are two very exciting things occurring at the moment in my life. The first being that the Goth scene in these parts is starting to wake from the dead and so many more events, gigs and meet ups are happening! The second is that I'm getting close to 300 subscribers on my YouTube channel, …
Halloween Jack and The Lockdown Sad
If, like me, you're in NSW you might be at the epic sad and missing all your friends stage of lockdown. With 466 new cases reported in the last 24 hours to 8pm last night it seems like we still have a long ways to go before we can see everyone again. I've been coping …
Annual Sydney Goth Picnic and other events
I've finally done it, after years of being like "ummm..." about making an official page for the Annual Sydney Goth Picnic I sat down and got it done. This is partly because going I've been wanting to move away from Facebook and all the trolls that I often have to deal with on that platform …

The bats can now leave the bell tower!
Over the last couple of weeks there have been many an exciting development in the Sydney Goth scene. Clubs are back! Gigs are back! I've started organising events for my community again and I have to say it's almost like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders. I'm even considering making a separate website …
Hitting the refresh button
I am starting my internet activities on a new leaf today. I finally worked out what was causing my creative block and it was the opposite of the scary blank page, instead it was the small box that I felt I had to fit into to so as a way to shake off the cobwebs …
101 wonderful subscribers
So a couple of weeks ago during mid-term madness I got a little email from YouTube saying that I finally made to 100 subscribers! I can't explain how good it feels to know that people out there liked my content enough to subscribe to my tiny little channel. Sadly I've been inactive for a couple …
Virtual Goth Clubs
Last night I was delighted to take part in a wonderful live stream by Melbourne DJ Micheal Nero from Elysium , it was simply fantastic to hear so many of my favourite songs while having a dance in my room and chatting to my Discord mates. It was a real mood lifter in these tough …
COVID-19 and what it means for our scene
It goes without saying that what is currently happening around the world is shocking and unprecedented. Life feels rather surreal all of a sudden, like as if we are all extras in the 2011 film Contagion. Around the world communities are going into lockdown, we are asked to work and study from home until the …
Monthly Goth Related Favorites
Most "Monthly Favorites" videos on YouTube show case favorite products and feel like some kind of advertisement; which in a way they might be. This isn't to say that this is a bad thing. I often enjoy watching these types of videos to live vicariously through others and I had thought of doing a similar …
Is Goth dead in Sydney?
One question that I often come across is "Is the Sydney Goth scene dead?"; I'm honestly surprised that despite Lock Out laws and the misunderstandings of what Goth entails it is still clinging to life in the Harbor city. Last October the most Goth thing ever possibly happened; Sisters of Mercy played on Halloween night, …
