Upstart Alley is a not for profit crew putting on events full of genderfuck and grimy glamour for all you freaks, trannies, queers and straighties. Our ticket prices vary depending on the overheads for each show but at Upstart Alley we are committed to keeping ticket prices as low as we can go while still paying performers as decent amount. Any accidental profits go towards covering costs for future shows not into our pockets.So far at Upstart Alley we have seen performances from Astro, Billi Lime, Gaylourdes (Syd), Voodoo Trash Dolls Duo - Sparkarella and Mechante Chatte, Wife and Domino (Syd), Loki (SA), Zoo (Syd), Tomo Boccocinno, and Roxy Bullwinkle! Plus music from trans/queer rockabilly punk band Ikochi (Tokyo), Sista She, The Original Generics, Crazy Horse House Band, The Scowlers, DJ Linx, Lady Lamenta, DJ Tokyo Love Kitten and The Minority.Now brace yourself for Upstart Alley V - closing night of Midsumma 08's Transdestinations Festival at Gasworks on Sunday 27th January - MC'd by Azaria Universe and featuring shows from The Bastard Snowpeas, Byrne & Erge (NZ), Madam Cavity, Pluto (Sydney), live music from Husny Thalib and much much more so stay tuned for details!NB. Upstart Alley will endeavor to hold all shows in wheelchair accessible spaces with wheelchair accessible bathrooms wherever possible. We think it sucks that these are few and far between in Melbourne and continue to campaign for accessibility at venues. Check out Trans Melbourne Gender Project (TMGP)'s Toil/Art -a project dedicated to building awareness around the necessity of gender neutral and wheelchair accessible bathrooms in Melbourne at www.genderproject.net.au
