2005: Stevie Eye Wonder

“Designed To Make You Hotto!”

I was somewhat awestruck by the original Stevie store in Greville Street that opened in 2003!

[ 2007 | source ]

I bought a T-shirt there in early 2005 from Lauren Heaven (now Lola Berry) who was working there. After I left the store, I went into another store to find out what was playing.

Anyhow, the t-shirt I bought was a bit small for me and not really my vibe – but it was alright. I didn’t really want to buy the shirt, but Lauren’s charm tipped the scales. She also suggested I roll-up the sleeves of an under t-shirt.

Lauren was also going to introduce me to the designer Lyndon McGauchie for me to help with their website but in the end I never met him. I also never made it to any of their parties either, although I did see her again by chance at Boutique nightclub some days later – also on Greville Street!

[ 1 | 2 ]

In Boutique, I also saw Charlie Goldsmith there with his pal, and Lauren who was a few metres away would have met him around that time.

Interestingly, when he looked at me with his now well-known “healing gaze” I wanted to totally leave the club and maybe even Melbourne. And that’s what I did.

I knew two of Charlie’s siblings at that point Brett (Goofyfoot from GrooveTip) and Briony from school, but not Charlie.

So soon after that night I was interstate and then out of the country and had found other parties.

[2008]

And I did practice drums in the shirt and those sleeves would’ve ended up unrolling anyway.

But Stevie wouldn’t have seen!

Fast and loose race at a slow and steady pace!

The story of Bopgig is a long one –  and not without hiccups. 

(updated: 2 May 2022)

(note: additional information about BopGig in Israel Tech Scene 2006-2011 and GrooveGuide)

2000: The name comes to mind.

GrooveTip in its inception was about tipping artists in the same way people tip street buskers. FairTunes.com (2000) worked on that concept, which had a WinAmp plugin. I took an interest in media metadata at the time as that should’ve contained the information for any funds to travel back to content creators.

I had thought… “once people have downloaded songs from Napster… then what?” … ideally, a voluntary tip by the listener/viewer to the creator!

2003: Multiple PHP apps cobbled together. Later GrooveGuide (more info here) is added – a free street-press magazine. 500 copies were printed and distributed around Melbourne. Problem: lack of app integration and hence automated signups.

2009: Rethinking the business model and user experience. BopGig or GigPop?

2010: A working prototype launches. A Y-Combinator application occurs.

2011: Development moves from USA to Israel.

 

2012: Public launch and then a pivot into indefinite hibernation!

 

2020: Hibernation continues!

2022: Thinking about it again!

note: With GrooveTip 2000 in mind, I would instead look at making it easier for listeners to give rather than own. Maybe both.

Adrian Wajsbrem: “Everyone, Jewish people around the world, and even non-Jews, who like the idea of Israel, and a Jewish Israel, and a Jewish Israel shared with other cultures and religions, should come here in peace, and not try and claim it, claim the land from the Jews.” (January, 2010)

October 2008:

“Jerusalem, the town of whoever’s here, it’s your town, ideally people that want peace – ‘piss’ – well you’ve gotta fight for peace, which means there’s always a war for peace.” (October, 2008)
