		Mailout Soundtrack Pick up a double pass for Fisherman Style at Mojos Bar Tame Impala's new tune Elephant is out. 200K+ views of an audio youtube in just over a week. Check it here. Lyndon Blue Dada Records had an amazing gig on the weekend past. Lyndon caught it & his interpretation of Terrible Truths, Per Purpose & Gunns presented by Good Company & New Weird Australia is tremendousedly detailed, teased out & inspired; as per usual. Tahlia Palmer has reviewed the Olympics opening ceremony. She thought the ceremony was incredibly odd. It was. Amber Fresh reviewed the Good Buddies Food Drive gig. Good Buddies Foundation is a group of young dudes that arrange gigs as fundraisers for unique causes. This time they've put on a gig where people paid in tinned food which went to the homeless. Article here Felicity Groom gives an overview on who we all were - children! We were insane & we were insightful. We probably still are. Felicity is our on the ground chaos correspondent! Article here! Christopher Isaacs is sick of phone ringing in the theatre. He has eloquently ranted about this over three paragraphs. Haha!

lyndon blue: live reviews GOOD COMPANY & NEW WEIRD AUSTRALIA PRESENT My shoesteps resounding round the white-walled, cavernous space are the only sounds I’ve heard for a few minutes. Not long til close, with a final spat of visitors unlikely to arrive, art galleries are a funny kind of doldrums at this time of night. Standing guard over artwork no-one’s observing is hardly one of an invigilator’s more peculiar tasks, however. Taken out of their creative context, plenty of one’s responsibilities are truly bizarre: checking on a bodybuilder to see if he’s finished bronzing himself, imploring people not to eat an oversized stalactite of gradually cascading toffee and – lately – explaining to frowning, somewhat bemused patrons that a disused cleaning tool can be art, and that presenting a found object in a gallery is not necessarily symptomatic... read more		tahlia palmer: steady eye The olympic opening ceremony I accidentally saw a repeat of the Olympic opening ceremony this weekend. It was one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen. I was nearly speechless. Pretty much completely speechless in between bursts of manic laughter and mumbles of “oh maaaaaannnn”. I was sitting in the courtyard bit of PICA, chain smoking and drinking tea waiting for my buddy to show up. It was a nice time that day: holiday life, lazing around bars and cafes, being a proper lady of leisure, not giving a single fuck about anything except how I was going to get back to my mother’s place for free food and free accommodation in the evening. When I sat down, I gazed up at the big ol’ screen in the cultural centre, hoping for some more lovely mini documentaries from the Etsy website about artisans in... read more back to top
		christopher isaacs: in the black box Ring of Death So here’s a story about a pet peeve I have in the theatre. Well, not so much a story as an occurrence. I was recently in a performance, around 500 other people were with me and we were watching a show, when from the couple of rows before me a slight vibrating murmur emanated from someone’s bag. It was a phone going off. Yes a phone. Not ringing, just vibrating. Now, I don’t have an iphone myself, but I know people who do, and I know when they switch it to silent it may not ring aloud when they receive a call, but the clever people at apple seemed... read more
