Botox
Catfood Press, East Brunswick. Sunday Nov 2nd 2014.
Botox are from Adelaide, up to Melbs for the Maggot Fest Festival...which I never even went near.. doh.
This is a brilliant band - latest in the rising tide of totally informed, impeccably influenced , criminally low tech , synth-punk units that continue to crop up from nowhere driving forward an already strong sub-sub-sub Genre that is becoming an increasingly Aus. centric phenomenon.
Maybe not...but I loved 'em.
Catfood Press is of course an awesome (if at times uncomfortable) venue: I had been there a few times in the "days of scram" and this afternoons packed, heaving, sweaty and happy set goes down for me as one of the best they've ever hosted.

Jonny Telafone
The M-Pavillion, Queen Victoria Gardens. Oct 26 2014
Where better for Melbourne's most nocturnal of tortured torch singers to launch his new single? In a coffee kiosk in the middle of a tourist infested City park on a pristine spring Sunday arvo...works for me....although some of the lyrical content (well one song particularly) wasn't exactly PG content..
I couldn't help thinking that this was probably the first time Jonny had been out in the daylight for some time, then he took his shirt off and it was obvious....

White Lung
Howler, Brunswick. Jun 9th 2014
I wrote a poem about this gig:
""the front row is all cameras, the second : boys with hard ons,
I wrote a poem about this gig:
""the front row is all cameras, the second : boys with hard ons,
and all the punks saved their money, and the dykes went home early.
and the venue is lovely, the p.a is a dream.
and the nipples so pert, panty lines are unseen.
fuck off back to Canada."
