F&T/PBABES dbl date: Never Invest in a Bank of Lightbulbs

Written on August 25, 2015   By   in gigs

Which is all the ASX is, isn’t it, really? It’s just an airport departure/arrival screen somewhere in Sydney, with a couple of uncomfortable chairs that some old guys who’ve been chased out of the library for farting sit around watching. & occasionally panicking each other. Why not invest your time & money in an activity what’s yield guarantees both ephemeral thrills *&*hitherto unthought-of career openings? Yes, yes! Win a Two-hour beginner’s trapeze lesson for one (value $89) – THIS IS FOR REAL! Simply tootle down to Chinatown for THIS THURSNYT’S F&T @ FAD GALLERY* & be the first to collar me & answer this simplish question: who is Axilla? *Unhelpful hints* The song entitled Axilla** has been recorded twice, by both Pbabes & Fire&Theft, & I piked the more exotic pronunciation each time, but now; now! From now on; I pledge to pronounce it Ax-*eey-*a as the Y sound is clearly from the double L as it is in after ‘i’ in French eg: Guillermo travaille grenouille Bastille & there’s a clear precedent in Australenglish: William = Weeyam, as in Andy Weeyams, not the crooner Andy WiLLiams, but the Andy Weeyams who shot me in the chest when I was 13, with a slug that I still carry inside me to brighten the day of bored radiologists; the Andy Weeyams ex-primary school-mate whom I last saw as the *before & after *shot of a home perm kit in glossy magazine. The pronunciation is finally rectified*** & dedicated to you Andy Weeyams, not the crooner, the shooter. & Ifn we don’t get the answer we’re lookin for then, that prize (value $89) it’ll roll over to THIS SATDYNYT PRAYERBABIES @ the LOMOND HOTEL**** or its equivalent in 000’s of iron(y) awe stocks – it’s a blue/choc chip certainty! xxxe’en
