**Known for holding some of the longest-running residencies in Melbourne’s live music history, Scat isn't just a cover band—they are an institution. If you grew up in the 80s or 90s, you likely spent many a night fueled by their incredible energy, and this Saturday night at the Burvale promises to be no different.**
**Featuring the powerhouse vocals of Chris Cuttler and Robbi Zana, Scat delivers a masterclass in classic rock and retro hits. From the gritty anthems of the 70s to the neon-soaked energy of the 80s, their setlist is a relentless journey through the greatest hits of all time.**
**Expect to hear blistering renditions of artists like:**
**AC/DC & Bon Jovi**
**Bryan Adams & Dragon**
**Tina Turner & The Divinyls**
**John Mellencamp & Cold Chisel**
**The Burvale Hotel is the perfect home for a band this size. With its iconic pub atmosphere and spacious dance floor, it’s the ultimate setting to grab a few drinks, round up your mates, and lose your voice singing along to every word. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a newcomer looking for a genuine Melbourne pub rock experience, Scat never fails to deliver a high-quality, high-energy performance.**
**Dust off your dancing shoes and get ready for a night of classic rock at its finest. Secure your spot today!**

**Frequently Asked Questions... 🕵️♂️**
**Won't everyone else already know each other?**
The only people who know each other are the Dungeon Masters leading each table. We don't allow groups to attend these nights, so at most there is a duo coming who already know each other. Everyone and you are super new to this.
**Will I be the only girl at the event?**
No, our events are generally 3:1 ratio, most tables I have seen are 2 girls and 4 guys. no promises on any individual night, but you'll find it doesn't impact your enjoyment.
**I'm worried I might slow everyone else down?**
Not true, pre-filled character sheets take much of the guess work out of learning the game, and the GMs have all taught tens to hundreds of people this game.
*The only thing you'll want to remember is the "D20", a twenty sided dice is always used to resolve actions, whether it's picking a pocket, striking a wicked goblin or recalling history on a forgotten ruin.*
*Ok, your basically ready now. seriously.*
Don't believe me? Come and find out for yourself.
**I'm worried I might be too old/too young for this?**
so here's what you'll want to know. we usually see attendees anywhere from 19-49 years of age.
normally it's 25-35ish as we often curate out events for young professionals and established professionals working locally.
But I'll say this: if you get along with a mature audience of respectful people who can collaborate together - you're in for a good time.

Haruki Murakami, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, & Creative Writing
Welcome to the Melbourne Sci-Fi & Fantasy Meetup's first gathering for magic realism and creative writing! If you've read or are new to Haruki Murakami, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Susanna Clarke, please come along. And for writers, this is also a space to talk about the craft of writing (any genre, fiction and non-fiction). I hope to make this a regular monthly or fortnightly event at other locations around Melbourne when the weather is warmer. But it's winter, so we'll have our first meetup at the Mitre Tavern in the CBD. Easy to find, and we don't have to wait outside in the icy wind waiting for tables. Join us for a coffee or glass of wine that stops time, cats with secret names, and good conversation about the books we love. After the event, we can kick on at the Mitre or maybe stroll over to a nearby wine bar or restaurant to continue the socialising.
What to Bring:
Paper, pen, and a story to share. I'll be giving you all some small, fun writing exercises and we'll see where the day takes us.

EVERYONE, please keep a look out for newly arriving people in the group and make them feel welcome, especially if they say: Are you with the writing group?
If you arrive first and have an A4 piece of paper, it is a good idea to write on the paper: Writing Group.
This way everyone will find each other.
Bring your writing tools, and anything that you have written recently (optional). Remember your earphones if you like to listen to music while you write.
There are no rules :) You can write. Or you can chat and write. You can share your work. Or not share your work. (If you need silence to concentrate then headphones are a good idea considering it is in a public space.)

What: An open group of writers who meetup in a stimulating space to write together, share writing and ideas and support each other’s writing goals

Where: Melbourne Central - see photo for our location. Red shaded area would be ideal if available when you arrive. Detailed instructions if you do not know the area:
1) Go to the Shot Tower (the old building inside Melbourne Central with the big cone glass roof above it).
2) Go up the the escalators (there’s only one set of up- escalators near the Shot Tower, you can’t miss it).
3) You are now on level 2, Dining Hall (there are signs to the right, just slightly, stating this).
4) Top Juice store is to your right. Turn right so you pass Top Juice and walk toward the food hall.
5) You are now in the food hall near a black piano. Go past this. Go to the seating at the far back corner where there are large windows facing outside.

Stalker
Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending.
*Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.
Picnic with a Purpose: Real Estate Networking That Actually Pays Off

Real estate is a proven wealth-builder—it has been for generations.
But it’s not a solo sport.
You need PEOPLE—who can advise you, partner with you, bring you deals, and buy deals from you.
We’re all about bringing you the best, most active, most got-your-back people in Central Ohio, which is why our July meeting is all about real conversations with real investors at our annual Picnic with a Purpose.
This is where:
* Deals get discussed
* Partnerships get formed
* Funding relationships start
* Problems get solved faster
Bring your family. Build your network. Strengthen the relationships that actually move your business forward.
Members and first-time guests are free. Returning guests are $35.
Location is a local park and will be shared after registration.
Space is limited, so you’ll want to secure your spot now.

CMG Gives Back: Serve Dinner at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events!
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

BUZZ & ACCLAIM: A huge box office hit at the time of its release, PRETTY WOMAN has since gone on to become a modern-day classic! The film catapulted Julia Roberts to superstardom and earned her a Golden Globe for Best Actress and her first Oscar nomination! Critics praise Julia Roberts’ star-making performance, the undeniable chemistry between her and Richard Gere, and its warm, funny feel-good story about kindness, self-worth and transformation! The film’s “intelligence and wit,” “first-class performances” and “sharp, funny script” have made Pretty Woman a classic and truly “something special!”
