The ubiquitous Grandpa Acid, perhaps the only gay Australian party goer to rival Sydney’s Trough Man in notoriety and if he pranced on your podium, you knew your gay club had made it. Melbourne is a town with magical word of mouth powers, which helps explain the instant success of the new 1993, alternative gay club, Tasty. It also explains the gay community’s lightening speed response to the club’s 1994 police raid. While police were making outrageous statements on the Sunday 6 o’clock news about finding a drug suitcase at Tasty, the gay community had already mobilised and over 50 community leaders, movers and shakers gathered, just over 24 hours after the raid, nearby at the new Joy FM, to strategise. GAY POWER, come at me !!
