Chop Shop warehouse bar: Lonsdale St, Braddon

Just when you thought that Lonsdale St couldn't get any more hipster, they crowded funded an arts and music space in an abandoned warehouse called the Chop Shop. We stumbled across the pop-up arts and music venue next to the Lonsdale St Traders (and by 'stumbled across' I mean- I saw a picture on Instagram and googled the address). Friday nights will be 'visual arts nights' and on Saturdays there will be live music- Chop Shop will run until the end of the year until the building gets demolished. Bitter Sweet and oh so cool it hurts.

Last Saturday night we saw a couple of acts, including the incredible Brass Knuckle Brass Band , which was an absolute thrill.
