hey loves.

while i work in total secret on my fuckin phone to put out an ENTIRE RECORD THIS WEEL (how did that happen???).....

 just a quick one from the australian road. we are on the hume highway, barreling from canberra to the blue mountains. 

we just passed the big merino in goulburn. 

we had to stop, obviously.

.....everybody on instragram was posting about how we really needed to see the back of the ram because supposedly it has giant balls but then someone chimed in and said the balls were castrated because some neighbors were complaining about their ball-view and NOW I DONT KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE ANYMORE. 


?????

SYDNEY TOWN HALL. 


the town hall / “ask me anything” in melbourne went so well that i just added this last-minute little town hall in sydney tomorrow. 


listen....sydney has been one of my biggest and most supportive champions in the world next to melbourne and new york for almost 15 years, and i figured it would be a good time to just sit down and have a yarn with everyone. so i’m doing it.
im bringing a ukulele.
also...it’s really unlikely that i’ll be able to pull off a signing at the syndey show (enmore theater, feb 20) because the show is gonna go so late and we have to pack up and get to PERTH. so...if you have stuff to get signed, i can do a quickie after the chats.


it’s open to the public, not just patrons, so bring friends.


it’s tomorrow, sunday, feb 9th, from 3:30-5pm.

we’ve rented the beautiful pitt street uniting church
264 pitt street, sydney 

and the tickets are a wee $15 just to cover the cost of the hall.
tickets here:

please spread the word about this one on social media as the church fits about 500 folks and i just added this to the tour plan. i’d love to fill it up fast.


i did this same sorta deal at the arts centre a few weeks ago in melbourne and it was just so so good ... we talked about everything from art process to cancel culture to family stuff and it got us all a little more connected.

come commune.....
this is gonna be a good one. 

and melbourne ... tell sydney how good it was. 

the actual sydney show-show is at the enmore theater on feb 20th and there are still a lot of tickets, at least a few hundred.....so please SPREAD THE WORD, all you australians. 

and perth, adelaide and darwin all still have seats left, but they're movin along. all shows as usual at: http://amandapalmer.net/shows/ 


.......


ANDDDD all you aussies: i am HOSTING RAGE a week from today !!!! i went to the rage recording studios in sydney a prorgammed a whole slew of videos and had some good chats with the camera.
it’s gonna air at 10 am AEDT this saturday, then again at around midnight. TUNE IN. 

we are setting up a reddit HERE:

https://www.reddit.com/r/amandapalmer/comments/f0lyhr/amanda_on_rage_tv_in_australia_saturday_feb_15th/

...so people can chat online and set up watch parties if you wanna. 

WHAT FUN. 

and SOON SOON SOON we finally fucking unveil the new forum where we can get shit like this done way more better. 

I PROMISE.

see you tonight, blue mountains...and see a lot of you tomorrow in sydney.

I'm happy that you had some excellent days, Amanda. Tbh, though, I am even more filled with delight over the idea of the new platform/communication station. The internet at large is so very dark, and not in the way that can be learned from, unfortunately. I've been painting more. Encouraging my children to pain and sing and dance and roll themselves about in art. It creates such a reprieve from that darkness just outside the door.

I was going to skip your town hall thing, because I have a medical issue in my leg that makes sitting for long periods tricky. Then I mentioned it to my brother tonight and he was keen too. So, it looks like I'll be seeing you this arvo and at the Enmore! Looking forward to it and apologies in advance if I end up with my foot on the furniture at some stage...

Good grief, those are big balls on that ram!

a fun fact from me is that i discovered the dresden dolls when u hosted rage in... 2006? i used to religiously check the program online every week & was so excited about whoever programmed the amazing videos. i video taped the whole program and rewatched it regularly. helped me discover the birthday party & rocky horror too amongst others lol. i was 14 at the time haha!! cute as. u should have seen my face when i saw the DD videos for the first time on that program. none of this is hyperbole. xx

AMANDA, HERE'S WHAT TO THINK. Google "big merino" and go to the reviews. Here's the second one in full: >>>>> 2 weeks ago If you need a break from driving or need to refuel then the Big Merino is there for you! There's a lovely little gift shop and the Ram has all body parts still in tact - go around the rear and you'll see what I mean! Was much bigger than I anticipated, and good for a silly souvenir photo. <<<<< Wish I could be at all or any of these, but it's a long haul from Philly.
