Just a reminder that “16 Lovers Lane” ~ The Go-Betweens classic album is part of the Melbourne International Arts Festival this coming Saturday. Lindy, Amanda and John revisit the last album they made together with Robert Forster and Grant McLennan before they parted ways. Special guest singers include myself, Paul Kelly, Dave Graney, Jen Cloher, Laura Jean, Alex Gow (Oh Mercy) Dan Kelly & Romy Vager (RVG)... all taking place at The Arts Centre Saturday in the heart of Melbourne.
I’m returning to one of my old haunts this Sunday. When I wasn’t just another bar fly I poured beers at The Standard Hotel (293 Fitzroy Street, Fitzroy) and sang occasionally on their stage. Sunday, I’m starting a three week residency - performing two sets from 5-7pm. These three Sundays - Oct 7, 14 & 28 ~ I’ll be away in Adelaide at The Wheatsheaf on the 21st (in case you were wondering).
B R I S B A N E ~ don’t forget there’s been a second show added at The Junk Bar - a late show with a 930-ish start time. It’s a lovely intimate space - come along.
***FRIDAY OCT 12***
Lots of new tunes, some BOOK reading, familiar songs, old and in-between ~
Here’s a nice quote from Mick Thomas “Last night at the Merri Creek Tavern I saw Rob Snarski play an eight minute ballad about two girls in Northern Ireland crossing peace lines to go to a secret Van Morrison gig. Chasing Van it was called. If there's a better new song going 'round I'd like to hear it.”
See you Rx
