Australian Made: Music, Images and Stories from the 1980s

Before the evening screening of Going Down, join acclaimed music journalist Bernard Zuel and renowned music photographer Stu Spence for a lively exploration of one of the most exciting periods in Australian music history.

From pub rock to post-punk, chart-toppers to cult favourites, the 1980s produced an extraordinary generation of Australian musicians, bands and live music experiences. Drawing on decades of experience documenting the nation's music scene, Bernard will reflect on the artists, venues and cultural shifts that defined the decade, while Stu shares a selection of his striking photographs and the stories behind them.

Together they will revisit the energy of packed pubs, regional tours, iconic performances and the thriving live music culture that connected cities, towns and communities across Australia.

Part visual presentation, part conversation and part oral history, this special event offers a unique opportunity to experience the music, personalities and stories that helped shape a generation.

A must for music lovers, cultural history enthusiasts and anyone who remembers the thrill of live music in Australia's golden age of pub and touring circuits.
