list of amazing things about to happen in australia (& NINJA GIG IN NAPIER, NZ!)
so much to catch you up on, including this fantastic webstock conference i just did with jason, but as usual too busy living to reflect.
not a bad thing.
information, however, keeps on rolling in. this tour has gotten mighty bizarre and i don’t mind one bit.
here’s the latest and greatest if you’re in oz or new zealand. about to hit wellington tonight, then christchurch and auckland.
tickets HERE.
1. WE’RE ALL GOING TO BE ON THE TELEVISION!!!

art nation web exclusive clip HERE.
the full program airs on ABC1 at 5pm and ABC2 at 9:30pm.
2. WE’RE GOING TO DRESS UP ALL ART DECO AND DRINK WINE!!!
SIMULTANEOUSLY, TOMORROW: i’ll be doing a NINJA GIG in NAPIER NEW ZEALAND!
i have NO official show in napier, just friends in town…and clearly i had to drive up when we hear it was ART DECO WEEKEND.
for the uninitiated, NAPIER is known as the “art deco city”…it was destroyed by an earthquake in 1931 and rebuilt in deco-tastic style.
every year they hold “art deco weekend” and would we miss a chance to run around with drunken kiwis dressed up like characters from the great gatsby, riding in cars that make them look like they all stepped out of a tamara de lempicka painting?
fuck no.
follow the twitter for exact location, but we’re looking at:
5pm
marine parade lawns
ALL AGES
ALL PEOPLE
bring love.
and bring your camera, for lord’s sake.
3. I AM GOING TO BE A DJ.
COULD THINGS GET STRANGER? YES.
