‘A kick in the bollocks for Australian music’: how band rooms and live venues became a dying breed
Changing tastes and rising rents are to blame, says owner of the latest Sydney rehearsal studio to shutter Alan Scott says in the 1990s he would lose his rock musician customers to drug overdoses “and other nefarious, self-inflicted wounds”. In 2026, he says, they are more likely to die of cancer and heart attacks – a combination of poor diet, no exercise and old age. Continue reading...

Labor’s NDIS overhaul faces delay as Coalition and Greens consider teaming up to slow bill’s passage
Government hopes to rush NDIS and tax changes through parliament but opposition and minor party push for more scrutiny The Greens want Labor to halt its plans to rush NDIS cuts through the Senate later this month, urging a longer inquiry process as the government seeks the minor party’s support for its contentious tax and housing changes. It opens the possibility of the Greens and Coalition teaming up in parliament to support extending separate Senate inquiries into both the disability insurance scheme and tax proposals, and thus delaying Labor’s hopes of passing those bills before the end of June.

Reform advisory committee also says changes will undermine scheme’s original intentions and give unprecedented power to the health minister * Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast The national disability insurance scheme’s proposed overhaul will cause “material harm” to Australians with disabilities, undermine its original intentions and hand unprecedented power to the health minister, the federal government’s own reform advisory committee warns. The Australian Human Rights Commission has also urged the government to slam the brakes on the potentially “regressive” changes to the NDIS, saying more consultation time was needed to avoid the “clear risk of adverse and unintended human rights impacts”. The Albanese government is eager to move ahead with changes that are estimated to remove more than 200,000 people from the $50bn-a-year scheme by 2030 in a bid to secure its financial sustainability.
