The Commons

Well we are up and running, we visited our first band last night at the wonderful The Commons.  Myself and my intrepid Scout headed downstairs to be delighted by the sounds of the Downtown Organ Trio.  Three highly accomplished young musicians putting beautiful sounds into the night air.  Their youthful faces seem hardly capable of such sophisticated and accomplished playing. They are currently all students at the Conservatorium of Music and play in numerous other bands around Sydney. Catch them every Thursday night at this venue, in Burton Street, Darlinghurst.

The Commons is a fabulous place, real food upstairs in the restaurant and courtyard and downstairs a cosy, intimate bar ideal for live music, sadly we missed last orders for food and enviously watched the band woof down their risotto, next time we will go early and enjoy the grub too.  A word of warning the drinks list is a tad on the expensive side, but fabulous.
