Odd times…

– here’s one: 3PM on a MONDAY – actually, seems unnervingly inodd, til context reveals it to be start time for THE PRAYERBABIES @ THE UNION HOTEL BRUNSWICK. Due to the happy convention of made-up birthday dates for royalty, horses and born-again religious enthusiasts, next monday is holiday for all! – spose that includes the staff at the hotel, being staunch monarchists, & that being the case, this is your chance to practice pouring your own beer – is snappin those taps as hard as it looks? So, just to get myself into comprehensive trouble, it’s therefore self-serve, & let’s say, an honour system of payment. Carry on… xxxe’en

Meet me in Brunchwick

While last week we were awakened to the sound of thoughts being counted all over the land & the indescribable tang of tortured toast bearing vulcanised eggs, there is no such greeting card-powered motif motivating movement in any particular which way, save

The giant & unwieldy dirigible of consequence…

…filled a large corner of the sky; rising & reeling on a flippant wind in the hands of its distracted & surely drunken usual pilot. I mumbly suggest we ignore it over lunch @ Cafe Peril…

Legalise Men’s Pyjamas

… well, i’m sure someone said something like that @ the rally where we successfully ROSE UP against our OPPRESSORS, armed only with a PUZZLINGLY indistinct BAGPIPE fetish, SAVED LIVE MUSIC & preserved our RIGHT to play @ DODGY venues for IFFY remuneration in PURPLETUITARY for yall – it’s about MORE than mere MONEY i SPOSE. Must get this CAPS lock looked AT.

See PRAYERBABIES play for NO remuneration at all THIS SAT 5pm as part of An Afternoon and Evening of music at THE CLARE 421 Rathdowne St Carlton 3 -12pm* then, on SUNDY @ 5pm PRAYERBABIES finish their month o’ no-undie-sundies @ the UNION HOTEL Union st BrunCHWicK then we lie in a panting heap & fall asleep in a pile like kittens

*This is a fund-raiser for Western Sahara which, as i understand it, has suffered a fate similar to East Timor’s tribulation: colonial power withdraws, neighbour invades for resource control – chaos, violence & persecution ensues – not to be encouraged! $10 entry or book for a 3 course dinner ($40 set menu) at 7pm

A fundraiser for Union Aid Abroad, Western Sahara Projects and Australia Western Sahara Association with The Conch, Tom Bolton, Adam Lawler, Naomi Jones Trio, Irine Vela, Anthea Sidiropoulos & The Royale Bellydance Company

Water QL-d

Well thank goo-ness! Violence in the CBD is to be a thing of the past, now that clubs are to install water coolers. This, I glean from L’Age, & huzzah! I rest assured that the patrons of these august venues will henceforth cluster quietly around the aquapacifiers, reverting to the stereo-typical office chitchat so plainly evoked by that mystic apparatus. Mmm, after 300/600ml of free water, it is plain they will be suddenly inured against the 7 vodkas & equivalent of 14 coffees they have consumed in their “energy” drink & booze cocktails*: the single most popular tipple in Nigella’s “Recipes for Disaster” – makes you do the wrong thing, only much, MUCH faster!

“Umprissuvely succunct”

I can but agree with this Unverckergull Chruneckul review of Wilhelm Reich’s posthumous masterpiece “Don’t Throw Away Your Old Skin” and, since reading this ten word testament, I’ve already saved enough once offhandedly sloughed cells to build my own stinky golem, eliminate several foes, and have it voted Australian Senior of the Year!

Boxing Day

… what is it all about?* Fisticuffs at the post-crassmas sales? Tryna get wa-ay ugly stuff repackaged to exchange for something you’ll actually use/wear/eat/own up to? Something to do with a 19th century Chinese rebellion in the name of comfortable underwear? Praps it’s just recovering from the previous festivities, having a nice sit down with a box on your head. Having enjoyed that, may i be so bald as to mumbly suggest another method for recovering from the other major calendar event, namely a doghair @ the UNION BRUNSWICK SAT 2nd Jan 5 -7pm with The PRAYERBABIES..?

*Evidently the day after christmas was when the churches in Britain traditionally distributed the donated largess from their “poor boxes” amongst the raggedy-arsed. Typical institutional behavior. Probably could have used it BEFORE christmas, eh? Maybe get the kids something besides the usual twig & dried mud. Mustn’t grumble though. Apparently. M’Lady.

(PG) eh?

The Prayerbabies have decided it prudent to now reveal that we too, have been conducting an affair with Tiger Woods. The 18 year, largely physical, though there was also a fulfilling spiritual side, liaison has now ended, as far as you're concerned. Any comments about golf balls, No.1 wood or the brand Titleist are both unhelpful and poorly constructed.
Our next secret rendezvous is MIDDAY THIS SUNDEE @ EUREKA STOCKADE GARDENS BALLARAT.

Thank you for your understanding in this difficult and itchy time.

Low G.I. Joe/ Lomond Fri P-babies

All makes pERFect sense – easily as much as Sheena Easton, who, in her
breakthrough "9 to 5 (morning train)" clip was directed by some guy
who read a book on how to be sess-ee Ch. 3)" You jus rub youseff up an
down on the train an, an, you look up an down with you eyes, thas
right, an you wear nice aqua jumpsuit. " = massive smash hit & short
relationship with Prince, once quite accurately described as a "dwarf
dipped in pubic hair" yet, generally pretty popular with the leh-dehs.
