We Did 500 Episodes of What a Great Punk and All We Got Was This Lousy Tax Debt Live Podcast
Don’t miss These New South Whales x What A Great Punk (Live Podcast Album Party)
Well, as famous rocker Julian Casablancas once said, “IS THIS IT?” In this case, I must confess… it is. It is it: It’s the WHAT A GREAT PUNK—500th episode—Season 1 Finale celebration tour. That’s right, gang. For now, it’s goodbye to our beloved podcast. It’s been a wild and wonderful ride, but only two things are true in life: All good things must come to an end, and you gotta pay your taxes. I hear you all gasp loudly, “No! Surely not! Do my eyes deceive me?”. But the truth is, it’s true. I would, however, encourage you to think of this more as a wake than as a funeral – a “see you again soon, maybe”, not a “see you in hell, forever”, type thing. What I’m trying to say is: “There’s a chance, slim as it may be, that it’s a ‘John Farnham’, and not a ‘Wacko Jacko’ type situation, if that makes sense?”
You are invited to join us as an esteemed audience member for the Melbourne show. There’ll be cool segments, even cooler guests, laughter, tears, beers, pistachio nut ice creams, and there may, just may, be a witches cackle…
The new album ‘Godspeed’ will also be out (Nov 28), so we’ll be selling and signing copies of the vinyl :)
We also can’t guarantee we won’t talk to you live on pod, so come with lots of good stories and your best dancing baby.
Anyway, I could go on all night, but, I better go. I’ve gotta get Mark Sinatra on the blower…
Plus, we’ll be pouring $10 Young Henrys Pints all night.
3pm door time, 4pm start time
Jacky Winter
JACKY WINTER LIVE IN THE BALLROOM
‘Mango’ is the latest LP from Melbourne breakbeat producer and songwriter Phil Gionfriddo aka Jacky Winter. Since the release of ‘I One Thing That I Own’ 12” EP in 2019, Winter has focused solely on work in the recording studio - York St Recorders. Here he produced and/or engineered records for acts including Civic, Harvey Sutherland, GL, Whipper and label Music In Exile. All the while honing his craft to make a sideways sample heavy album of his own, ‘Mango’ is raw and funky with a vinyl release on Brooklyn NY imprint Altar Boy. The launch party at the Railway Hotel Ballroom will be Jacky Winter’s first Melbourne full-band live show for 5 years having thrown sold out parties in the Surf Coast town - Jan Juc in 2023-24.
