NSW Music Fans Can Vote Out Gladys Berejiklian

With the New South Wales election just weeks away on 23 March music fans in the pissed off state have a chance to vote out Gladys Berejiklian and her antiquated government.

Gladys and Co have been a festering sore on the music industry while her casino owner buddies are immune to her destructive decisions that are ripping millions of dollars out of the New South Wales economy and denying millions of music fans the simply right of entertainment.

Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers made a comment during the recent Australian tour. “Did they figure out that stupid shit in NSW yet? Trying to pass that law so it’s impossible to put on a concert? Make it hard for people to go and see live music? That is the stupidest fu*king thing I have ever heard in my whole life! What could make a community better than everyone going out to see live music?… Live music forever for the people,” he said.

So far 126,000+ people have signed the change.org petition and 10,000 physical signatures have been collected meaning the petition can be published in the NSW Parliamentary Hansard and debated in the House.

Over 10,000 music fans also attended the Don’t Kill Live Music rally in Sydney.
