On another unrelated topic (but this is GC) - does anyone know in Melbourne, of any good record stores close to the CBD?
I went to one while I was down there for Bruce in March. There's:
Collectors Corner - 1/387 Bourke St (middle of town) which I went to, it's OK at best, not the widest variety like the one I hit regularly up here in Brisbane (claims to have 250k records, tapes and CDs in a room maybe twice the size of Collectors Corner, it's basically the same layout, upstairs above other shops and through a narrow staircase and everything) but all the records it does stock are in VG-Mint condition. I grabbed a U2 12 inch Unforgettable Fire 4 track for $12 and Under A Blood Red Sky for $10 or something. Also got Ziggy Stardust live album there in pristine, perfect mint condition for $40. Not the cheapest but happy to leave my money with a genuine record store.
A few others that I have heard of are:

I wanted to get out to the ones in Fitzroy to have a look, but I didn't end up having any time left.
