8 Foot Felix on the Radio
Aug 16th, 2012 by michael chalk

[not really 8FootFelix, in fact a different band]

Always great to hear your favourite local bands on the radio. I saw 8 Foot Felix play the Wesley Anne the other week, and was struck by how much they have evolved in the year since i saw them last. Apparently they’ve had a world tour, and been to Burning Man. Highlights included a French version of “These boots were made for walking”… really stunning.

Listen to the rambunctious folk from 8 Foot Felix playing live on 3PBS:

Trans Europa Express for Tuesday, 14 August 2012 | PBS 106.7FM.

Deserts and dreaming – fiction by Jane Jervis-Read
Aug 16th, 2012 by michael chalk

An interesting story by Jane Jervis Read in this month’s Overland.

A strange story.

The piece is unsettling and unexpected, a little mysterious. But it draws you in and leaves you wondering, “What the..?!”.

Here, read it for yourself (recommended!).. Little people at Overland…

I’m a fan of Jane’s work, and recently attended a reading for the Winter edition of InScribe – the Darebin literary journal. Jane read her piece “Hartington Street”, which was short-listed for The Age short story competition.

A beautiful gig: Sean M Whelan & Isnod at the Wesley Anne…
Aug 7th, 2012 by michael chalk

Saw Sean & Damien perform live the other week at the Wesley Ann and loved it.

Here’s some video from the night. Is this the Michael Hutchence performance? Ah no, it’s “Elemental”.
