Back In The Day MELBOURNE'S HOME OF HARD ROCK AND METAL SINCE 2003 This night was created to give the rockers of Melbourne a home they can hang out and call their own.
(239)

If you used to hang out at the Cathouse, Hard n' Fast, Joey's, Hell's Kitchen, Cat Club, Bell St Rock, Sarah Sands, Chevron, Kickass, Springfields, Cobra Club, No Life til Leather, The Marquee , House of Rock etc....

Then this is your new home!! No bullsh*t, down to earth rock and roll people, listening to the music they grew up with and love and live for. IT'S NOT A LIFESTYLE, IT'S A WAY OF LIFE! Modelled on the vibe of the notorious and world renowned Rainbow Bar and Grill in Hollywood, The Cathouse and plenty of other rocking nights that have existed BACK IN THE DAY! Loads of familiar faces and plenty of new ones make the trek every week to be part of the madness and mayhem that is BACK IN THE DAY.. Make sure you check the gallery section to see if you have been inducted into the BITD HALL OF FAME! We appreciate your support and patronage, and BACK IN THE DAY is what it is because of all of YOU! ROCKING SINCE 2003
