HIGHLIGHT OF 2014

This year, we've had a significant number of satisfying Australian acts. The local music circuit, despite several closures, has housed several amazing acts.

PREDICTION FOR 2015

Next year, there will be major commercial gains to be had with the humongous slate of blockbusters. Avengers 2, Jurassic World and Star Wars Episode VII will be just a few big budget movies making huge profits.
