On Friday I performed at the State Theatre opening for the band 1927*. About 2000 fans packed the theatre and along with Mike Goldman** we really excited the crowd. It is difficult to capture the roar of the crowd on video, but here is some amateur footage.
* 1927 is one of Australia’s leading band from the 1980’s. They achieved 5 x multi platinum sales for their album …ish and spent 4 weeks at #1 on the album charts. Visit their website at: www.nineteen27.com
* Mike Goldman is a television and radio host known for his work on Big Brother, Meerkat Manor and Friday night live. He would make an awesome MC for your next event: www.onthemike.com

So I’m in Australia until the end of the month which is great… before taking on some international shows in the following months..
I’ve just gone through my 3rd pair of speed painting pants this year! They start off black but get so much paint on them they almost become like cardboard..
Depending on the event, I have been wearing a different shirt - with the corporate engagements I think you need to look good, so I have a fitted long sleeve shirt. At less glitsy events, I have worn a plain black shirt (you just can’t beat black!).. but I’ve also received some comments on my tongue shirt - which I picked up from talented artist Chris Wahl.
