Latest What Double J Should Sound Like show has plenty of variety from Campbell, Jay and myself.
I brought along A Certain Ratio, B-52s (live, from that new album pictured), Colourbox, Tenpole Tudor and a rare Ringo Starr track (aren’t they all?)
I have included the B-52s live track as they are touring with Simple Minds in February 2017. See you there, but never at a winery gig, as you will hear us discuss in this show.
Show 113 also includes Shackleton, The Beatmasters and Hot Chip. Enjoy!
When the Totally 80s show was in Sydney at the Enmore Theatre last week I had a great idea.
Just go out into the crowd at Enmore Theatre and ask them how they liked the show, I thought. What could go wrong? I thought.
It’s a great video, but probably not for the right reasons.
In the immortal words of philosopher Adam West; “Some days, you just can’t get rid of a bomb.” (or drunks)
This is our blooper reel from that video shoot by Richard Saunders. The final drunk free edit we used is here
Saturday night at Enmore Theatre I ventured into the crowd to take the cultural temperature of the group zeitgeist.
This turned out to be less than one of the more intellectual pursuits of the 21st century.

Saturday is the last Maynardarama in Newcastle. We’ve had some fun at The Royal Exchange in Bolton Street since November last year. Every month bringing a surprise line up of video clips to Dean’s big screen and welcome downstairs bar.
I’m thinking Elvira might be a good way to go out.
William Shatner (Barbary Coast), Richard Hatch (Battlestar Galacticia) and many other sci-fi notables came to Sydney in 2000 for a convention in the Sydney Entertainment Centre. The first press conference had some wacky questions, but this time not from me.
This is from my Rewind show on Channel V, Foxtel that was a weekly retro music show every Friday & Saturday night.
Check out that WTF look on the Shatsters’s face…

With the recent passing of DJ Paul Holden I was inspired to post the entire hour of a Special I did on Rewind on Channel V in 2001. Using footage originally shot at many dance parties by Charles Amsden in 1988 – 1990. I put some memorabilia and the clips of all the original house tracks. (although I know the Rozalla track is a remix, but we couldn’t find a broadcast version of the original Everybody’s Free at that time.)
Enjoy, the show is dedicated to DJ Paul Holden and everyone else who was there.

Weird Al Yankovic played the Enmore Theatre in Sydney on Saturday night to a packed crowd of chanting Weird Al fans. I got in the middle of them and found out that Al is more loved, by more people, of all ages than ever.
The dress code for the night was loud and the headgear; tinfoil.
Thanks to everyone for allowing me to accost them with my microphone, and to the man himself Al.

April 1989 & Bananarama tour Australia for the first time. Maynard chats with Jacquie O’Sullivan (who replaced Siobhan Fahey when she left to do Shakespears Sister) about Melbourne nightclubs, safe sex and heavy drinking during their World Tour. This is a real time capsule from 1989. You don’t get so many questions about condoms these days.
Jacquie O’Sullivan, Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward turned up at Maynard’s Madd Club on the Monday night in Sydney, that is where the above photo was taken, about 2am.
