The versatility of the MCG has few peers and its reputation was enhanced further when it hosted a mini music festival on November 13.
Part of City of Melbourne’s Melbourne Music Week, the Love Live Music event was an MCC initiative designed to demonstrate the venue’s flexibility and attract new visitors to the stadium.More than 1000 fans took in the ‘G like few before them, moving between performances from 17 local acts in nine locations around the venue. Some of the more popular included the player change rooms, Robert Flower Terrace, STUMPS Tavern, Tower 6 and Frank Grey Smith Bar.
The lineup featured a mix of Melbourne musicians playing everything from acoustic tunes and smooth jazz to upbeat pop and indie rock. Among them were The Delta Riggs, Pierce Brothers, Woodlock, The Pretty Littles, The Vanns, Masco Sound System, Coby Grant, The Higgs and Reuben Stone.
Those who attended had a very enjoyable Sunday session at the ‘G, and we have plenty of ideas to make the event even better next time around. Stay tuned.
