IโVE GOT FRIDAY NIGHT PALSY! ๐คฏ
Tonight is the night! The last gig of the @TISM1982 aka TSIM No Mistakes tour at @UOW: University of Wollongong. You much catch @TotaMonoceros AKA Totally Unicorn who last time I photographed them at River Rocks at @Barwonclub Hotel, the lead singer, Drew Gardner completely destroyed everything on and off the stage. Theyโre INSANE and a great fit for tonight.
Anyway, here is some fun footage from TISM from their first Forum Theatre show. The good doctor @doctormcdougall calls them โEvil TISMโ because of their illuminated head gear. What do we have installed tonight? Who knows? That is the thing about This Is Serious Mum, you never know what to expect. What is your theory of what is going to happen tonight? โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

THE LAST AUSSIE F1 HERO!
Very sad to hear the news that F1 World Champion, Alan Jones has passed away a few days after turning 80. In the ground effects era of @F1, he dominated in the Williams. He was the main reason why they started to broadcast F1 here in Australia. Later on as a broadcaster for Channel 9, I valued his no bullshit, honest appraisal of what was going on. I saw him race many times over the years but the most exciting was 1980 at Calder Park when he raced his Williams FW07B / Ford Cosworth DFV (his championship-winning F1 car, run in Unipart livery) against Bruno Giacomelliโs Alfa Romeo 179 and other Formula 5000 cars. He lapped the whole field. GOOD ONYA JONESY! That was a day to remember. ๐๐ฅ๐

๐ฎ๐น CONGRATULATIONS to the youngest-ever @F1 World Champion, @KimiAntonelli. After 73 years, an Italian driver returns to the top of Formula 1. This year, the 20-year-old Kimi has shown maturity, talent, courage and heart. Also, he has the total respect of the two biggest champions of the sport currently racing, @LewisHamilton and @Max33Verstappen. Unlike last year's winner, he is keeping the number 12 in homage to the greatest F1 driver that I have seen race, @ayrtonsenna. ๐ง๐ท ๐๐โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

๐ผ โI went through your bedside drawer
You know I've never been inclined to have to do that before
Never been Bergdorf's
But you took someone shopping there on May 24
You bought her a handbag
It wasn't cheapโ ๐ต
Did you get the messages? During @lilyallen's performance of "4chan Stan" at @RodLaverArena, she wraps herself up in a revenge dress, made up of oversized sales receipts/dockets (including ones referencing places like Bergdorf Goodman, tequila bars, Nobu, Chanel and the Plaza) that mirror the songโs lyrics about discovering evidence of her partnerโs alleged spending on another woman. Subsequently, she retrieves a second piece of fabric and wraps it around her head. The visible text on this material clearly includes the words โHeartbrokenโ and โMotherfuckerโ. How did you react when you saw this? ZOOM IN for more details. โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

๐ฅฐ Here is the always lovely @lilyallen last night at @RodLaverArena, delivering a performance for the ages. It wasn't your usual greatest-hits retrospective concert. West End Girl was more like a one-woman stage play or rock opera detailing the collapse of her marriage to @Stranger_Things actor @DavidKHarbour. โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

โ๏ธ "Hi, how are you?
I miss you
Yeah
Huh?
Yeah
Right
Um
Okay
Well
I mean, it doesnโt make me feel great
Well, if thatโs what you need to do, then
I guess
Well, how, how will it work?
Where, right
I mean it makes me really sad but
Mm-hm
Mm-hm
No, Iโm, Iโm fine, Iโm fine, I just, I want, I want you to be happy
Okay
Okay, Iโll speak to you later
I love you
Bye" CLICK!
It was funny watching @lilyallen's one-sided spoken outro from the title track "West End Girl". Someone screamed loudly behind me, "Don't answer it". Reports from other performances indicate that some members of the audience can get quite rowdy. It's a devastating pivot from a happy opening song that launches a unique story of doubt, isolation, discovery and processing. It was exciting to see some real drama on that stage last night at @RodLaverArena. โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

Booyakasha! @SachaBaronCohen's Ali G Who Iz I? has just dropped on @amazon Prime Video. CHECK IT! It's his directorial debut and the first time in 20 years that he has returned to his iconic @OfficialAli_G character. FOR REAL! For fine purveyors of crude comedy, this is a must watch. IT'S WICKED! That naked fight with his hairy producer in @BoratSagdiyev still makes me laugh at loud. I'm surprised he hasn't been beaten up with some of his previous antics in Bruno and Borat. The final scene in this Ali G movie is his most ambitious sequence but I won't spoilt it. Respek! โค๏ธโก๏ธ๐

He might not be a household name here in Australia but it is with deep sadness that I acknowledge the passing of @donnieiris at the age of 83, following a courageous three-year battle with bladder cancer. His music and especially the exuberant 1980's classic โAh! Leah!โ, continues to resonate as a vibrant expression of pure rock energy and remains a cherished presence in power pop collections worldwide.
The songโs driving spirit and that unforgettable mid-sectionโwith its richly layered, multi-tracked vocals reminiscent of @thecarsband's โMoving In Stereoโ, capture the essence of joyful, radio-ready rock. I always thought it should have been a chart-topping worldwide hit but I don't remember it getting any local airplay here in Australia, except for the weekly Casey Kasem American Top 40 radio show. ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
In the accompanying music video, Donnie projected a distinctive, relatable presence that set him apart from the conventional rock-star archetype of the era. He was more Eugene Levy rather than David Lee Roth. As a sidenote, the woman in this music video featured actress Lana Clarkson, who unfortunately in 2003 was murdered by the famous "wall of sound" music producer, #PhilSpector.
Donnie's music catalogue, too, deserves renewed attention. In 2021 Rock Candy Records remasters of his first four MCA albums, expanded with additional tracks, offer a rewarding immersion in his body of work and is highly recommended.
Donnie Irisโs songs continue to lift spirits and connect generations. Thank you for the music, Donnie. ๐๐ฅ๐
