Mailout Soundtrack
This weeks mailout soundtrack comes from nice nice. Click on the porty brown bird to hear some of their tunes!
Nice Nice are brand new on warp and swim in between cut up dirty glitch to acoustic guitar meanderings. Their new album has the hilarious title Extra Wow.
This bird was found by searching for a cool looking moth. But depsite our love for cool looking moths we wondered if you'd think that we were a bit like hannibal lecter. The plump birdy won. He's a nie nice looking bird.
Happy Easter break to all!

steady eye with tahlia palmer
Tahlia goes to Ballarat
A friend of mine who lives in Sydney tells me he’ll be in town on Saturday night.
“Orly? Let’s hangout!”
“Yep. We’re playing a DJ set in Ballarat, wanna come?”
“Hah, sure, why not? I’ve never been to Ballarat. Woooo!”
Saturday rolls around, and I’m waiting at North Melbourne train station for Dan to pick me up. I’m thinking to myself:
“Ballarat… it can’t be too bad.”

Trevor is a somewhat obsessive collector and is continuously in search of the next jumpin' killer-diller. He has a particular passion for the music of the original bands of Harlem, tracks featuring hand-clapping and songs about food.
Speaking of food Black Toms kitchen will be open from 7pm to 10 on this night and their pizzas are bang on the yummy buzzer : )
Big dance floor areas and couches seats and a outdoor area mean this venue will cater for this night perrrfect.
Tickets are available for $10+bf thru heatseeker via this link or $15 on the door kicks off at 7pm.
If can be proven to Black Tom's that this calibre of evening has a following there's a chance that this night will happen again down the track - show your support! : )

The Swimming Club By Hannie Rayson
Presented by Black Swan State Theatre Company and Melbourne Theatre Company
Starring John Waters
Cast includes Caroline Gillmer, Megan Holloway and Igor Sas
Directed by Kate Cherry
World Premiere!
Six young people from around the world, including two UWA students, spend one glorious summer together on a Greek island in 1983. They are beautiful, adventurous, idealistic and believe that the world is theirs for the taking.
Fast-forward to 2009: These footloose and fancy-free types have turned into successful and driven people who are juggling careers, families and mortgages and are grappling with middle age. Each in their own way, they feel trapped by their life choices and are baffled by their children’s youth culture in the new millennium. Will a reunion on their magical Greek island be able to rekindle their spiritual fire?
