Pop, Blues and Timmy-Tommy Cruise
Published: July 10, 2018
Pan!c at the fox and firkin is top of the list week. Saturday Night. July 14.
Terry Bradford’s birthday, I believe.
Anyway, gig at the firkin fox kicks off about 8 pm, I spoze.
The Fox does a pretty good feed, so … you know… food, fizz, fun… home later for a fondue.
Steve Brown and his Band of Renown get down to supper
The Mount Compass Supper Club will feature Steve brown and His Band of renown on Saturday July 21.
If you live local (to Mt Compass) you can get tickets …. er… somewhere… shit, I have to look it up… hang on….
here: Steve Brown Band, Saturday July 21, Mount Compass War Memorial Hall.
Tickets can be purchased from Mount Compass Post Office or through www.ticketebo.com.au//mcsupperclub
So… Tickets on sale at the Mt Compass PO.
I guess that is Post Office…. not one of them “po” things.
Not sure whether I can let this out but, here goes…
No, not a fart. It’s this:
On Sunday the 29th of July 2018 the Thebarton Theatre’s will be inducted into the South Australian Music Hall of Fame and celebrate its 90th birthday.
(I know that’s a very tiny picture of the Thebby Theatre but I don’t know how to make it bigger on this site)
The evening will celebrate Thebarton Theatre’s dedication to the South Australian music industry with a concert of over 40 musicians representing over 30 of South Australia’s and Australia’s most successful and greatest bands who have played Thebarton Theatre.
[Where it says “a concert of over 40 musicians…” I’m guessing most of us playing at the event are over 40. ( I am over 40; took me a decade to get over it…. ) but just in cace there are some younger than 40 musicians on stage perhaps the announcement could have said: “more than 40 musicians… many of whom will be over 40!”
Thank you for your patience.]
Anyway, Watch this space – tickets will be available soon, I am led to believe.
(I was led to believe a lot of things when I was younger; right up until last, week in fact, I was still believing that eating bread crust will make your hair curly. While it has, i suppose, been responsible for keeping my pubes and quoit coif filaments wound up like clock springs my nose hair has remained unchanged for millennia. However…. just the other day, the thick crust on some weird “arty-fartisan” bread dislodged my front tooth… the best one in the remaining set…. and my toes curled. SO…. fuk crust; pancakes from now on!)
Memphis Blues Challenge.
It goes on… and on! And will keep going on till we boot the winners off to Stupidland.
The 2018 Memphis Blues challenge has been run and the winners decided.
Now we need to raise the funds to get ONE MORE MILE and BEN FORD-DAVIES to the 2019 International Blues Challenge in Memphis!
This event will include a gala auction, Pistol Pete’s Memphis BBQ will be sizzling, fine wines from S C Pannell wines will be available and the evening will conclude with an all-star jam! Check the schedule:
2018 MEMPHIS FUNDRAISER
10th August. Semaphore Workers Club
93 The Esplanade, Semaphore (directly opposite The Palais)
$15 entry, kids free
6.00: Doors open and BBQ
7.30 – 8.15: J.J Fields, Blind Dog Taylor and the Healers
(Where it says “gala auction” … do you think they might have meant a “galah auction…..” ???
It’s just that Aunty Beryl is a bird fancier and famously fancies a cockatoo but a galah on a perch might fit the bill.)
And then there’s this one:
One night only!
The Juke Joint Blues Review & guitar solo competition is the place to be.
@ The Sporting Car Club, 51 King William Street, Unley.
SUNDAY JULY 22. 5.30 PM.
Great rhythm and blues and a chance to compete on stage for the best guitar solo performance.
Watch some of our best local guitar players battle it out for prizes.
Maybe there will be blood on the floor or, at the very least, a fat lip or two.

The return of Little Timmy Tommy Cruise in
Missionary impossible
Sweat boils from the brow of Little Timmy Tommy Cruise as he struggles against seemly impossible odds – and time! His muscles straining, feeling a rupture might be on the cards….. his wrinkles wrinkling….. he was on a hair trigger.
“Tommy! Tommy!” shouts Katie… “You have to give it up… it’s not going to work!”
“Must try… I must try harder, Katie! I can’t give up!”
“Timmy Tommy, Little Timmy Tommy….. listen to me: I’m 8 1/2 months pregnant and you have a 3 1/4 inch dick – the missionary position is not going to work!”
“But…. the scientology handbook says this is the way we must do it!”
“Tommy… we have already done the handbook’s work…. we have a little thetus on the way.”
“But I can’t stop… must try harder……!!!”
“Tommy! For the last fukken time…. IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK! if you’re that desperate to empty your bag I’ll bite the pillow and we’ll say nothing to the auditors. Alright???”
“ Ohhhh, Alright… give us a shot the B-side then.”
