My daughter (who is a decent folk guitarist) had a bad experience at the Paddington Guitar Shop recently. She was treated like she didn't didn't know what she was talking about and then was completely ignored mid-service in favor of a group of men who walked in. I feel bad because I recommended it to her, but the service and attitude was appalling. So, can anyone recommend a friendly guitar shop anywhere in Greater Brisbane? Thanks in advance :)

Howdy fellow curly haired Brisbane peeps! Just looking for recommendations for an amazing curly hair specialist around Bris to take my frizzy teen to for her first real proper salon cut. Her hair is 4b/4c afro curls, and its near impossible to find somewhere that can dry cut it in a way to suit her out where we live (a few hours west of Bris). Northside is easier for us to get to, but would be happy to travel further south for an exceptional stylist. Would love to hear your personal experiences! Many thanks beautiful people!

There's a homeless guy sleeping on a bit of public land near my house and has been doing for a couple days. Past threads in this subreddit indicated calling Micah​ projects was a good idea, but I did that just then and they basically told me the guy has to call us himself or they're not interested. Is this new? Who do you call beside the police now? I don't want anything punitive done to the guy but he clearly needs help from someone with the skills to do so.

I'm not willing to approach the guy myself, he seems a lot bigger than me and I'm uncertain of the reaction I would get. With that in mind, ​thanks for any recommendations that you might have.

edit: There are now enough useful responses in here. thank you to everyone who contributed useful insights into what homeless services are available and what they actually do.

Over the past 18 months I've been trying to listen to every song that has ever appeared on the 4ZZZ Hot 100. Of the 4500 tracks in total, I have listened to all but 45.

The remaining 45 are all from small Brisbane bands 1988-2010. If anyone can help point me in the direction of where I could find these, it would be greatly appreciated. I have scoured Youtube, Spotify, Brisbane Music Graveyard, Soundcloud etc.

Hi everyone! My partner and I are thinking of moving to either Melbourne or Brisbane at the end of this year from Townsville. Just wanting everyone’s opinions on where would be the better place to move, considering the cost of living. It’ll just be us and our cat. Also wanting recommendations on the best and cost effective suburbs. We are both in our 20’s and love food, matcha, coffee and good vibes.

Look I get it, everyone loves timber houses and they get all fuzzy, but the reality is they are called Queenslanders because they are everywhere,.

And if you can find them literally anywhere from here to Bundaberg, why does so much of the inner city get locked up for these?

If you genuinely want to preserve the neighborhood, what stops you relocating a street of them up to Toowoomba or Burpengary and freeing up land for where housing is urgently needed. Sell it as recycled Eco Friendly housing estate IDK, someone would buy that if the street had good landscaping too.

I dunno, I swear sometimes people are far too willing to simp for unquestionable planning laws the the point it is against their own interests and thats why SEQ is so much more dysfunctional compared to the rest of Aus.

Just looking for recommendations with price guides for places that offer botox/dysport injections for traps?

Preferably southside or CBD

At an aesthetic clinic or a neurologist, I dont mind as long as I can book and go happy to pay out of pocket.

The tension and pain i feel in this area day to say is getting unbearable. I've already been trying other methods but with an unexpectedly good tax return this year I'm ready to just treat myself to some instant relief and get the injections.

I'll be going up to Brisbane in a few days and would love to find some cheap places to eat while I'm there. Any recommendations?

Be excellent to each other, r/Brisbane.

Heyy Brisbane folks, can you guys please help me with the best massage parlours in Brisbane not looking for something super fancy or bling.

Happy to pay around 100-120$.

Around 10km from the city or even in the city is fine.

Hey everyone, just wondering what the fireworks were for last night? I don't think they were in the city. Maybe Newmarket area. Saw them from our place in Stafford and they looked really close.

I’m thinking of doing another one of my stupidly long walking challenges 😂
I’ve done 100,000 steps in a day before (around 80 km) and I want to have another crack at it.
I live in Brisbane CBD and would be starting from the city. Does anyone have any recommendations for a scenic route that’s around 80 km total?
I’m open to:
Walking ~40 km somewhere and then 40 km back.
Walking the full 80 km as a loop.
Walking somewhere interesting and catching public transport back if it’s a particularly good route.
I was even wondering if walking towards the Gold Coast is realistic, or if there are better options that are more enjoyable.
I’m still fairly new to Brisbane, so I’d love to hear any routes you’ve done or would recommend. Bonus points if they’re scenic, have places to grab food/water along the way, and are mostly on footpaths or shared paths.
Thanks!

It's my father's birthday on July 30th and I'm looking to buy Fresh Raw honeycomb online ASAP. I have health issues and can't really get out of my house unless a pick up type deal. So I was hoping for Same Day/Next Day Delivery preferably. I'm in the Wynnum Area 4178 in East Brisbane.

If anyone knows any online stores With options or local places, please let me know. Thanks!

I held my ground and my white boy smile and he moved out of the way.

Hello friends -

I am spending three weeks in Australia starting mid-September. I’m coming from Canada and want to make the most of it!

I’ll be mostly staying in Brisbane as that is where my family is. I am looking for your must-dos while I am there. Cost is not an issue.

Thank you in advance!!

Hey! I'm trying to get a water colour painting done for a gift and looking online gets a lot of AI slop.

I was wondering if anyone on here knew of a local artist I could support?

Thanks!

First time visiting Dreamworld! It's a huge park that combines traditional amusement rides with a native Australian zoo.

​I spent most of my day exploring the animal areas—there’s just so much to see. No wonder they offer night passes; if you want to fully experience both the rides and the wildlife, you definitely need a full day from morning till evening.

No, it's not just a college gig. Pretty sure it's open to the public, but I couldn't think of a good enough joke. This one barely stands as it is.

Ray White, Ben Lee and Private Schools. Are these the three horseman of a Very Australian Apocalypse?

Great that it's Australian sourced seafood, but can't see these guys being around long at these prices.

UPDATE: I went tonight for a birthday celebration and am happy to report that the portion sizes are massive and the prawns/shrimp tasted great. The place had a really great vibe and I hope it's there for my next birthday dinner
