Tonight & Tomorrow - Christmas Show with Peter Combe

Tonight and Tomorrow night at the Vanguard supporting Childhood hero Peter Combe and the Newspaper Mama Band.

Craig:
Christmas, 1996. Cameron Lyons receives Peter Combe's "Toffee Apple" on CD, to go with the ABC For Kids VHS tapes. Shortly after, we discover the "Program" and "Repeat" buttons on the family stereo. This shit is burned into my brain so hard, I think seeing it live is the final stage in the ABC Youth Education/Brainwashing Program of the Late 80s/Early 90s. Please come and assist in the Spaghetti/Newspaper/Toffe Apple/Orange Juice/Bubblegum flavoured madness. Fry an egg on the Vanguard. Wash your hair with Reschs. Clean your teeth with a Rowda Ya Habibi Kebab.

FBi Tonight - Gaelic Thursday

Tonight on FBi radio. Old man (Glenn) Thompson and myself are on the wireless. We’re on as a part of FBi’s member drive which is rallying behind the ‘family’. So we’re going in a some sort of music associated family vibe thing… I guess. Anyway, we’re talking to Adam Lewis on 'Radiant' and apparently we’ll play a song each or such and like. So catch us on air around 9:15pm tonight FBi online or on 94.5fm.

This week we’re playing the Gaelic Hotel with our Sydney favs the Fabergettes and the lovely duo the Si Claros (Yae Tiger! Masterminds) Come down and check it out it’s a sweet line-up.
