Lyndon Blue: live reviews
AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY OF A HIRED GUN
It was in July when I was standing in my bedroom, looking at the window for no reason, and my phone rang. I answered it and heard the voice of a band-manager-type friend of mine. “Hello lovely,” he mused. “There’s this gig coming up in a couple of weeks… I’m looking for a bass player…” It was a Chet Faker show at the Bakery, which sounded fun. The relevant duo’s tunes, which I’d encountered briefly before, sounded pretty neat. I obliged.
A few months later (last week in fact) I was standing on Watt St in Newcastle, NSW, looking at a demolition site for no reason and my phone rang again. It was Andrew ...

The amber fresh chronicles
In 64 days there's 2 Billion ways, to help the planet
A few hours ago I was walking in a french bikini along this beach (pictured), with a storm brewing, and thinking about one thing. Well, thinking about three things actually and I’ll tell you them all, but the first one is, as you can probably guess, climate change.
Excuse me if I make a mistake, I’m now up on the hill above the ocean, and looking out onto the ocean, and a butcher bird came by, chasing a currawong, even though the butcher bird is so much smaller. Now imagine that the currawong is as large as a planet, and the butcher bird is as small as a you or a me. And that this time it isn’t a chase scene, but it is a fight that the butcher bird must have with its own desires ...

chris isaacs: in the black box
The Actors Equity Guild award needs to branch out their categories of design!
Designers. It’s not a dirty word. Don’t be ashamed. In fact, it’s probably the coolest word you will come across in theatre. You see there is more to a show than just actors and directors, and designers are the long maligned creative group who don’t get the credit (or sometimes criticism) they deserve. In short theatre designers fall into five categories; Lights, Sound, Audio/Visual, Set and Costume, with the final two often paired up by the same person (Choreographers are another barrel of monkeys on top of this)...

Das Superpaper Issue 25: Periférico
at paper mountain, northbridge
Guest edited by Ivan Muniz-Reed and Lorena Peña Brito, Periférico looks at ideas of the periphery, taking its name from the monumentally failed ring-road in Mexico City.
The issue traces some of the key developments from the 1990s which positioned contemporary Mexican art on the global art circuit and their subsequent impact on the current milieu of artists; the way in which art production in Mexico responds to the sombre situation that the country faces – a present of violence and political spasm; and the cross pollination of ideas which arise from encounters between artists from both locations and from the convergence between artists and place.
Join them from 6–8pm at Paper Mountain to celebrate the launch of the issue and Das Superpaper's 4th birthday.

no lights no lycra
at perth city farm, east perth
A dance night based on abandoning self-consciousness and professionalism through no lights and no talking as you bust a move, NLNL has finally hit Perth after incarnations across the Eastern States.
Whilst flirting and showing off are moves that are sacrificed, what emerges is self-confidence invested within the purity of dancing as well as a killer work-out to boot. Not to mention the uplifting sight of a town hall filled with shadowy apparitions shifting shapes to Getting Jiggy With It.
$5 from 7pm.
Ed: NLNL has moved to City Farm. But, don't forget there is an installment in Freo every Tuesday from 7:55pm, Scots Church, cnr South Tce & Parry St.

It’s a key reason why her live performances are so acclaimed, and it’s translated well here. Toby has crafted a well-rounded release that encapsulates her sound while still being acoustically diverse”.

Darren Hanlon
at Mojos BAR, Fremantle
Wednesday, December 19
DARREN HANLON headlines Mojos Bar. "After a multifaceted year that included the operating of an underground speakeasy/venue in a bookshop in Melbourne, living in a bread truck in Portland, and brief jaunts playing his songs for audiences in Europe and America, Darren Hanlon is visiting your town to play his ritualistic Christmas shows. As always it's just him alone, and usually a special guest or two at each show. This year he'll be showcasing new songs for the album he'll be releasing in album form early next year and yes, the old favourites too."
JAMES TEAGUE supports!

the eight: reindeer monologue
at lazy susan's comedy den, perth
Prepare to be offended – and see Santa’s reindeer like you’ve never seen them before.
Groovy Boots Theatre is presenting the WA premiere of The Eight: Reindeer Monologues at Lazy Susan’s Comedy Den in the lead-up to Christmas: a darkly comic tale of corruption, abuse and deviancy implicating the smallest elf right up to the jolly fat man himself.
Written by Jeff Goode and directed by Phil Barnett and Chris Thomas, this professional production of his critically-acclaimed work is described as “as all kinds of wrong” and definitely NOT for children.
A scandal erupts at the North Pole and each reindeer delivers clever, humorous and confronting monologues, dishing the real dirt on Santa’s perversions, Rudolph’s mental health, Vixen’s sexual harassment allegations and why Dancer no longer dances.
The Eight: Reindeer Monologues plays at 8pm, November 28, December 5, 6, 12 and 13 and 7pm, December 2, 9 and 16.
Tickets are $25, $20 concession plus booking and transaction fees – book through TAZ Tix on 9255 3336 or HERE. Please note: this show is strictly an adults-only event.
