Hello Lauren!

Pretty much everytime I've seen my friend Lauren Bamford recently she has said that she goes to check my blog

and is disappointed nothing new is up....

I've been a bit hesistant to add much to this blog, seeing as much of it was written in an incredibly manic state.

Though seems to make for good reading.

However as Lauren pointed out, I can just add stuff that I think is cool.

Anyway first  I'll throw up link to my solo act Rentboy's Nocturnal Emissions e.p.

the link is here for a free download.

Hmm...

Things have been o.k so far this year, peformed a couple of solo gigs, Midnight Caller

also have a new set of songs which we can't wait to playlive.

That's enough for today....

Here's an awesome live clip of Gang of Four doing  "Anthrax"

One of my favourite songs.

Bass in your face Interwebs...

Hello once more.
That's me in the corner providing the crowd with some bass when my
band Midnight Caller supported Flipper at the Brisbane Hotel
earlier this year.
Some excellent live recordings from this gig are on the Midnight Caller 
myspace.

Currently my solo thing Rentboy has new tracks up.
I created a new hip-hop song called "This Is Rentboy"

It's my first attempt at rap. It's just talking really.

"Like Willy Wonka I’ll fill your gut,

my guitars my pimp and my beats a slut"

I am currently finishing off the next  Rentboy recording to be titled Nocturnal Emissions
which will debut in the next issue of Womans Monthly,
a zine created in Tasmania. Did I mention I grew up there?

All my older Rentboy stuff is available from Consumer Productions.

So dudes, it was so fucking hot today in Fitzroy that in my over-heated state  I bought what I thought was a cheap lasagne and it turned out to be cheap chicken.
Whenever I try to beat the chicken it follows me around like a chook with its..um,whatever.

I'm going to start blogging more again as I am in fine spirits.
Speaking of which I was watching the latest Dr Who and he used the term "Blogger"
I cringed.
There is some funny old Dr Who on youtube, worth a gander.
My favourite was the Tom Baker era.
Fancy a Jelly Baby?

Dan Recommends...Top 5

For those of you in Melbourne City:

1. On October 3rd at The National Gallery, the Dali Exhibition will run for 24 hours. Gonna check it out at 3am. Persistence of Time indeed. I think it's 23 bucks entry.

2. Polyester books on Brunswick Street has Dealing With Post-Human Abilities for five dollars. It's a funny Centrelink piss-take pamphlet.
A perfect gift for your job search manager or psycho flatmate.

3. Ex-Tasmanian rockers Midnight Caller. Currently writing and recording new material. Yes I play the electric bass but Pat writes all of
the tunes.
4. Macaroni and cheese single serve. For breakfast use only. Taken before sleep will induce shitty nightmares.
5. Coles Fitzroy has a coffee machine with all manner of satchels and only $2.50 it's ace.
