YISYISYIS
I believe that I am somehow contractually obliged to mention this show, at the Birmy tomorrow night, where the kind people from YIS will be giving away limited copies of a new CD. You can listen to one of the tracks here. I can't see what all the fuss is about, really.
Melbourne-based lover of music movies and good beer. Long time writer for such fine publications as B Side, the I94 Bar and Mess + Noise. Collects VHS tapes, for some goddamn reason.
There's an email address behind that "view my complete profile" link, if you need it.
An unsolicited anonymous endorsement
"TJH- a chain-smoking, beer-swilling rock & roll blaggard, who really DOES catch the last tram home"
Further unsolicited testimony...
"...it's a fab piece of writing on your part, and i guess mine too. Thanks for listening to the fucking words a bit ."
And yet more...
"I gotta say, you pretty much said all the things I could hope that you would, and in a way that I could never have thought to say it!!"
And again...
"I showed my sister your blog. She said "My god, he is so 80s Australian it hurts" That is a compliment."
Aw, shucks...
"Thanks TJ, you seem to sum us up perfectly every time!"
Oh, thanks.
"You are right on the money with the ________ track."
Latest appreciation...
"Thank you very much! It's lovely reading a review that connects to the same point I feel like i'm making, and in a way that i'd hope and like it to be heard."
This one meant a lot.
You're welcome, smart, evocative and well written reviews are few and far between so the people that write them tend to make an impression! x
Hmm.
"...he looks like he'd be good to have on your side in a fight."
