A crossover DJ livestream. After finishing his One man Madd Club show, Maynard walked to Neil Hume’s place (does Maynard seem like the kind of person that would be allowed in an Uber?)
Neil livestreams every Friday night from 9pm with the help of his Russian Blue, Catrouska. She even makes a cameo in this show.
This show has Batman, Henry Mancini & some poor dance moves from Maynard.
The fifth One Man Madd Club live stream went off with some trouble due to Facebook blocking. But after I rang the Facebook after-hours number and did my fantastic Mark Z voice, they gave me the keys to Facebook.
Lots of outfits you haven’t seen previously here. My favourite comment on the show was “more costume changes than Liberace”. High praise indeed. Although the lack of a belt caused a wardrobe malfunction that wasn’t seen.
Here’s the show in its entirety. Enjoy, and tune in on Friday at 8:30-9:00pm.
Maynard decided to take a look at 1978 in this Rewind show from Foxtel’s now axed Channel V music network.
With the help of our volunteer from the viewing audience and two hangers-on near the couch we bring you the year that was 1978, from the point of view of 1999.
1997 was a great year for Kylie Minogue, living in the busy Kylieworld of Pop.
Living in the land of Britpop, Kylie had been working on her Impossible Princess album for two years.
“Kylieworld” was the way she described her publicity schedule, level of fame and the concept of never really having to work again if she didn’t want to.
I asked her about her relationship with her record company (Deconstruction in the UK) and the future opportunities of working in the US.
She spoke about having a family (decades away), what music she’d enjoyed lately (The Verve) and about being turned away from a Club with Nick Cave the week before (they weren’t).
Kylie also gave definitive rulings on: “What to look for at a potential boyfriend’s place?”, “Favourite track of Impossible Princess?” and of course “Your favourite music clip up to now?”.
Revisit 1997’s Kylie Minogue. I’d even wear that shirt again.
Foxtel’s Channel V sent me to the Melbourne Comedy Festival in 2000.
I was lucky to spend 2 days in Melbourne in March 2000 putting together a one hour special for Channel V on Foxtel, where I did my twice weekly show Rewind.
Featuring interviews with more than 20 of the comedians performing that year, it’s a unique snapshot of Melbourne comedy at the turn of the century.
It was a music channel after all, so I picked some of my favourite humorous clips from around that time.
But who is on the show Maynard?
In order of their appearance: Peter Hellier, Shane Bourne, The Comedy Zone standups, Miss Itchy, Chris Franklin, Garry Who, Ross Noble, Kim Hope, Eric Bana, Loose Moose, Boothby Graffoe, Adam Bloom, Tom Rhodes, Johnny Vegas, James O’Loghlin, Peter Berner, Wil Anderson, Kitty Flanagan, Greg Fleet, Tripod, The Four Noels, North and Mickey D.
With wild and whacky music from the likes of Weird Al Yankovic, Foo Fighters, The Cruel Sea, Bloodhound Gang, Chris Franklin, Kenny Chesney, Beastie Boys, Scared Weird Little Guys, Fatboy Slim and Madness.
This show takes a shallow and imprecise dive into the fashion of comedy, the boundaries of comedy and the who, what and where of comedy. So shut up and laugh at people who do this for a living.
Thanks to Desleigh Pender for production and Mary Datoc for programming.
Tim Ferguson & Maynard bring you their first ever Bunga Bunga, live video on Monday, from an undisclosed but well stocked location. Tim reassures the nation, Maynard shows his moves and they both answer your live Crankmail.
