I grew up in Ballarat and moved to Melbourne before I turned 18, so I never went to this place called 'the chapel' formerly 'hot gossip' formerly a real chapel.
Anyways, my **cough** friends **cough, bullshit** informed me, after I'd been here for a while that it had gotten really dancey/ravey/it stayed open after 3am, and that it was now quality/the place to be seen/I probably should check it out. ok.
So, one fucken freezing Saturday night in the 'rat, I downed some ales with friends at the Bridge Mall Inn - Quality live music (guitars and shit), and headed for the chapel.
Well, this oh so cool place had only really survived because they refused to sell Tooheys, and everywhere else in Ballarat had sold out. The ravinest thing I heard there that night was some Britney, back to back with Madonna and Shania Twain.
The only cool thing in Ballarat is the wind.
