One of Melbourne’s most iconic live music venues is up for sale.

The owners of The Tote in Collingwood say they’ve got “no petrol left in the tank” after the pandemic, and it’s time for them to move on.

They’re hoping to fetch $6 million to $6.6 million for the site and say they’ll be “looking favourably at proposals that ensure a live music component”.

Music journalist Jane Gazzo says she’s “really sad” by the news.

“We saved The Tote once in 2010 … I think we can save it again, I  think it deserves to be saved, it really does.”
