Ahhhhh The Sando
Many a saturday afternoon did I spend there a few years back watching my friends band "The Magic Lunchbox", and getting comfortably inebrieated.
I was utterly crushed when I walked in there last time and saw nothing but pokies and harsh fluro lights. My faith in human kind was diminished on that day......
But hark, I have recently heard that they are back! That live music has returned to the Sando!
I can't be entirely sure about this, but I am told that one brilliant Muso name Brett Hunt often has saturday night gig's there now.
If it wasn't for the fact that I now live in Wollongong, I'd be back there with Bells On!
Please can someone clarify..... "Is 'The Sando' back on track?"
Cheers

i haven't been for a while. They may have accoustic type music but to my knowledge nothing like the good old days

Yeah, that would make sence, Brett Hunt is a great acoustic artist. But damn I miss the dark atmosphere of that place and that huge square bar right in the middle. Goddess bless the good ol' days of the sando.

I share your sadness. It was quite a unique setup watching bands through the bar staff.

I'm not sure if i saw Magic Lunchbox but i have certainly heard of them.

I saw Shaggin' Wagon there way too many drunken saturday afternoons

This pub has changed back to a music venue with independent abnds most nights of the week. Saturday has had a long running residency of Dave Tice and Mark Evans, who played respectively with 2 great Australian bands - Buffalo and ACDC.

Well worth a vist for music.
