Quite simply, if The Exeter ever changed, turned into a 'glamourous' stainless steel behemoth, got shut-down by pesky developers or the Nanna's of the CBD, I'd probably blow this town and head for somewhere rad. Like Hobart. The Exeter is essential and so are Saturday nights. So let us present to you '!! The Skinning Of The Mule !!' with Threat of Popularity, Beauty Salon, and The Hoodoo Voodoo Dolls.

FiveThousand is a subcultural guide to Adelaide, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Adelaide writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FiveThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
