thanks for the feedback unfrufru and alisso
the vic does sound perfect - except for the site i found the cheap hotel tix on states that there is a construction site next door to the hotel that runs from 8am-4pm.
i dont know if it is a current or outdated announcement though? im going to be in melb from the 2nd - 7th may...i posted my itinery on the other thread, if it looks like i would be cutting it a little too fine to get to any of the shows, please let me know
