Adelaide Events and Attractions - Out
OUT is a guide to gigs, parties, studio sales and other events in Adelaide. It's what tourist brochures call nightlife but to us it is simply life and so we also include events that refuse to be categorised. We believe that good, clean fun is a contradiction, that a bottle of beer should never cost $10, and that a queue is our cue to leave, or at least lie about being on the doorlist.

Just because your art hasn't been exhibited in the confines of the four walls of a gallery, doesn't mean the things you spend so much time doing are not art, are not vital, are not GREAT. Breaking down barriers is what Format's all about, and 'This Is Your City', an exhibition of photography that hasn't seen a gallery wall before - maybe just a lounge room or impromptu computer slideshow - breaks down the clique.

Once upon a time there was a boy named Seb. Seb liked all kinds of regular little boy things, like Matchbox Cars, his sister's Barbie's formidable bosoms, Nintendo, and lastly, noise. When Seb was all grown up he played in a real rock and roll band called Hit The Jackpot but he had an itch, the only way to scratch this itch was to move to London, since he left his scratching hand there.
