See you at Electric Dreams 30th April
The Newcastle fringe Festival this year will damage your undies. That’s a good thing.
The Friday night combo of OMGWTF Show and Bettie Bang Bang Variety Show was a less than dressed spectacular.
Saturday night the People’s republic of Newtown will have the talents of Kate, Action Ant and Maynard on display as Madd Club returns to The Moshpit. This gig will not be live streamed like the last one, so you actually have to leave your house this time.
It’s $10 on the door, which will be open from 7.30pm and they’ll take you through to Midnite. The capacity is limited to 50 and that includes us three, so be early.
Plus a new innovation in the history of public entertainment. You will receive a ticket on entry to maybe win a “seemingly lucky door prize”.
More 80s sounds (with a bit of 70s & 90s to fulfil the Newtown diversity charter) that you expect from Madd Club an a few interpretive dances, performed poorly.
See you there!
A peekaboo at what we did last time
Madd Club video livestream brings all the inflatable wonder of half baked dancing and retro tunes into your own lounge room. From Ultravox to Pseudo Echo via Donna Summer. Enjoy the party.
Guests this month include Action Ant, Queen Kate, Tim Ferguson and DJ Campbell Drummond (What Double J Should Sound Like).

Bunga Bunga 65 finds Tim Ferguson and Maynard hard at work making Australia a better place by making sure they don’t get caught.
A pithy Bunga Bunga 65 finds Tim in a mood to tell off ABC legal while Maynard is puzzled at the amount of Barry Crocker records he seems to own.
They also answer the big questions about Tim’s burlesque career, Adelaide, Goth subculture, and what to wear to an insurrection.

Tim Ferguson (insurrectionist)
Victorian listeners will no doubt be especially excited about Tim’s public address to the people of Melbourne. In which he fingers some COVID malfeasance on the part of alleged hipsters.
The “large flightless budgie of New Zealand” that Tim mentioned he drew in this show was a Kakapo. See a less interesting drawing of the Kakapo here.
Goths used to be likeable, but now they’re just people who have a lot of Ann Rice novels.

Australia’s Coldest 100 returns in January with some world class musical awkwardness that only Australia can produce. From The Bum Dance to Song of Wollongong, this list of 100 songs about Australia or by Australians (who may have received bad career advice) is a must for fans of the musical road less travelled.
The Coldest 100 is the creation of Andrew Sholl. He’s been featuring it on Twitter since 2016 and so far this year the combined worldwide interest in his list has seen 75 million views. So put that in your slouch hat and smoke it.
Every year I’m asked two questions: Where’s Johnny Farnham? and Where’s Alan Jones?
Andrew Sholl
I didn’t know Alan Jones was a singer, and I’m still not sure. But he gives I Am Australian a red hot try.
Any chance Alan gets to perform he’s up it like a rat up a rope.
Andrew Sholl
@Ozkitsch Andrew Sholl has been at this for 5 years now and he shows no sign of running out of Aussie musical oddities.
Look and listen to The Coldest 100 2020

Maynard’s Mastermind returns to finish 2020 off with the raspberry it deserves.
The most exciting thing about this video livestream is you get to name the inflatable hippo.
So as we said at the beginning of 2020 ‘good luck’.
