Member of the Order of Australia, larrikin (literally, as part of folk band The Larrikins and Larrikin Records), bush balladeer and swag-deep in folk lore Warren Fahey is a character in his own right – and so is probably the best man for the job if you want to get cosy with Sydney’s most prickly and compelling post-code, 2011. Into one day’s worth of talk (we’re pretty sure he’s up to the task), he will squeeze in the low-life layabouts, scandalous segues, and high-falutin’ history of Potts Point, Kings Cross, Woolloomooloo, Elizabeth Bay and Rushcutters Bay, through examples ranging from buildings, fashion, food, sport, music and more.
