Me getting better!

Well after my little accident in Adelaide I thought I was going to miss the rest of the tour but after some major surgery in Brisbane, I’m back. Faster, stronger, wittier and even less politically correct than ever!

I love touring with these guys... Bourbon, Hot chicks and great food, I just gotta learn my place, evidently.

A quick update on the tour, it’s going great! We have done five shows and they have just been going off! The guys play the Palais in Melbourne tonight and then we party!

Once I sober up and straighten out a bit I'll put some pics on here and hopefully the guys will put some new audio and video on the website.

Views on Sweetman

Yes, it’s true... we did take the Piss out on DomPost reviewer Simon Sweetman... and no, we don’t regret it one bit!

It wasn’t because Simon gave us a bad rap five years ago, it was because he still disses us even now, on his blog and on radio he is regularly heard slagging us off.

We apologise if we have offended anyone (apart from Simon, of course) but we have no way of defending ourselves from his one-man crusade to destroy our good name and our show’s credibility, so yes, Simon will probably continue to be the butt of our jokes and my non-politically correct views!

Rockin’ the Red Country!








hey gnomies!!!

Yep, it’s Nev here... having an absolute ball in oz. So far we have done shows in Perth and Adelaide with another show on tonight in Sydney!

I’m having the time of my life... well almost. I had a few too many Grolschs and fell off Daz's amp the other night. Then some clever roadie knocked me off the effects rack so I fell 2 metres to the floor breaking both my legs and now I may have to have surgery.

The boys have gaffered me up for now, but I’m still a little concerned. It doesn’t hurt though, as long as I drink lots of Germish, I can’t feel a thing!

Playing the Enmore tonight... yeah!!!

While over here I have also been having a spiritual awakening, as you can see above. Me and Buddha and Krishna hit it off really well and I might miss the show tonight and take them out on the piss!

Australian tour just about to kick off


Yes we only have about 10 sleeps left now before we fly out. All the gear has gone and there’s nothing to do now but wait. Just gotta stay out of trouble now!

We fly to Auckland and from there direct to Perth. Can’t think of anything worse than spending eight hours in a plane. Oh yes I can... 8 hours sitting by a rock pool in Invercargill and getting pissed on by the neighbours’ cat. Payback’s gonna hurt!

Gonna get me some of those speedos and while the guys are setting up the gear at the Burswood I’m gonna head down to Freemantle and see if I can find me a nice local lass to charm.

I've never been to Australia before, but I'm sure its gonna be a blast. Can’t wait to try all that Fosters and XXXX stuff the guys always laugh about... can’t be that bad can it? I’m sure they have Germish there too!

I’ve put a picture up of me on my first tour with the band in 2007. As you'll notice I wasn’t much of a drinker back then.

Ooh look at those horrible green pants, and that jersey... that’s hideous. What was Ma thinking? Thanks guys for the make over!

Well its time for a beer here!
