I’d be very grateful if you could remove “Phillippa Claire Wearne” from the nice
comment I made about the Different Drummer closing – Just leave “P” please, see below: I did not mean to fully identify myself.
“Thank you for being you – for so long!!”
Hey Dave and crew,
We moved in Glebe in 2011 and DD was the place where we celebrated all our big milestones with our friends as a couple that settled in Australia – birthdays, permanent residency, citizenship,etc
This is with an immense sadness that we say goodbye to the amazing music, cocktails and atmosphere you brought to Glebe Point Road. I hope it reopens one day and continues to live somehow.
We will miss you dearly – Solven
Devo. Bring back the DD. Best nights ever in this bar. And girls nights start like this (see pic!) 😝🍸🍹
So sad to hear, this was our favourite bar in Sydney. Sydney is truly dying, soon we ourselves won’t be able to afford to live here. So many creatives I know are moving to Melbourne. Sydney is now just a land bank for the rich.
Thank you DD – our favourite bar ever.
The DD has been our go to place since we moved to Glebe in 2006. No better place to go to and always come back to. Countless fun times
The fab crew, the music, the food. The perfect small bar.
Hoping someone out there can keep the DD alive
We miss you
I’m so sad to hear about the impending closure of DD, have gone there a few times over the last two decades.
I hope we can find a way to keep it open! I’d love to attend the February meeting.
Hey Dave
MD here! I have such happy memories of The Drummer particularly the early years when the trivia crew from The Excelsior would rock up with Kev after trivia for a few rounds at the Drummer. You always poured my absinthe into a brandy snifter!
The great nights with Anth including a couple of verymemorable nights which went on for a couple of days afterwards!
Glebe will be a little greyer now that the Drummer has closed its doors but the memories will always remain and those, I will cherish!
My Best to you, Dave.. you’re a true gentleman!

I had my first date with my now husband at the Drummer, also my Hen’s night started there.
We booked the back room for a fundraising event where I had my head shaved down to 0.
Any time a friend wanted to meet for a drink, it would be the window at the Drummer. I loved people watching, talking & sipping a cocktail.
I came into Glebe with my children today to do a fruit shop & was saddened to see it closed, end of a golden era for sure.
Best wishes for whatever is next for the DD team. Thanks for being part of some key moments in my life!
Thank you for being you – for so long!!
Thank you for creating an always welcoming space with a friendly team who care about our city’s culture and arts. You will be missed.
I don’t remember Glebe without the DD.
Best Gin and Pear in Sydney and best late evening vibes anywhere!
