Our industry faces an unprecedented challenge in COVID-19. We’ve developed a central Resource Hub to help our communities navigate the sea of information and find the critical resources that can help them to weather this storm. The Hub is for everyone – it’s free and you don’t need to sign up for anything to access it. perks.com.au/covid19 (08) 8273 9300 20200401_Hotels_SA_Apr-May_OSB.indd 1 2/04/2020 10:50:13 AM WWW.AHASA.ASN.AU | Hotel SA | 3 Striving for the Best Outcome to the COVID-19 Crisis When I originally penned this column in early March, the following issues were front of mind for the AHA. • The twice annual excise rises was a headline item. It was (and remains) time for all of Industry to get on the same page and fight the Federal Government to halt 71 tax rises in 35 years. Paying $2.26 per litre excise on beer in tax is simply beyond acceptable. It makes us the fourth highest taxed nation on earth for beer – 17 times more than Germany. • I also raised concerns about the effect of the devastating bushfires and a concern in Asia called coronavirus, which, combined with the bushfires was having a negative effect on our accommodation venues. That downturn demanded South Australia From the President finally fall into line with major overseas DAVID BASHEER – AHA|SA PRESIDENT regions and properly regulate Airbnb. • Other issues of industry concern and interest were also raised. The AHA|SA has not lost sight of these issues and there will be an appropriate time to act on members’ behalf. But our lives right now are consumed with the COVID-19. It affected our industry first - and has hit us the hardest. It has taken a heavy toll on our members, our amazing staff who have suddenly found themselves in Centrelink queues for the first time in their lives, and our sponsors who have seen their supply chain destroyed and had to deal with their own circumstances. This is a national and global upheaval that suddenly our members – from large city operators though to the mum and dad country pubs - find themselves in the middle of.

  • Like a Sustainable Version: Practising Independence in the Central Sydney Independent Music Scene
    Like a sustainable version: Practising independence in the Central Sydney independent music scene Shams Bin Quader A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Gender and Cultural Studies School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney 2020 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, not material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement has been made in the text. Shams Bin Quader 22 April 2020 SHAMS QUADER i ABSTRACT Independent music is a complex concept. It has meant different things at different historical moments of popular music and within academic, music press and industry discourses. Even though what independent music refers to might not be substantive, it has tended to signify an oppositional ethos comprising practices related to maintaining distinction from commercialised popular music. Historical narratives of popular music reveal that independent music or indie, has been defined and re-defined, from signifying an ethos of resistance comprising anti-major record label and anti- corporatisation attitudes, to rubrics of sound aesthetics, marketing categories and niche audience segments. Its different connotations then should not be assumed. Comprehension of different dimensions of independent music call for theorisation of youth, rebellion, alternative cultures, and their connections with musical forms, along with production and distribution-related organisational infrastructures revolving around them.

  • The History of Roadrunner (1978-83)
    THE HISTORY OF ROADRUNNER (1978-83) By Donald Robertson Synopsis This is the story of how an Adelaide punk fanzine blossomed into a well-loved national music magazine that chronicled the glory days of Australian post-punk and ‘pub rock’ music in the period 1978-83. The do-it-yourself ethos espoused by the UK punk movement in the mid-1970s was strongly felt in Australia and inspired bands to form, play live and record and release their own records. The concurrent expansion of live music venues across the country (mainly pubs) meant more bands could live, work and play. Roadrunner was also very much a product of this do-it-yourself ethos. From the bunch of evangelical music fans and writers who initially came together, some left and others joined and as those involved became more technically proficient the magazine developed and grew. With no financial backing (until the final despairing issue), Roadrunner survived for five years due to the combination of a posse of enthusiastic (and usually unpaid) contributors, a creative and understanding production crew, a sympathetic printer, the support of key music industry personalities and— perhaps most important of all—a small but dedicated readership. In 2017, the University of Wollongong in New South Wales made all 48 issues of Roadrunner available in a digital archive (at http://ro.uow.edu.au/roadrunner/). The History of Roadrunner 1 IntroduCtion When Martin Sharp, the internationally acclaimed Australian artist, died in 2013, I read that the University of Wollongong had created a digital archive of the Sydney and London Oz magazines that he was such a part of.
