Thursday February the 1st ~

Memories Can't Wait at our Open Air Cinema as I precede The Notebook with song stories from 6 on


Friday February the 2nd ~

The Bob Hawke Beer and Leisure Centre elevates an egalitarian Australian ethos that I'll embellish further via a debut local bracket of 7" singles, spun between half 8 and close at half 11


Saturday February the 3rd ~

Jack Off embraces the blank page weekly from 3 til 5
Dean and Nancy on 22 stacks unlikely bedfellows of glamour and humour atop a fancy hotel. Imaginations stir as people peer over the city in a reverie. All I have to do is weave an apt soundtrack. Feast yr senses and clear the air from 9 til 12.30 at night

Music to the ears of mirthful, moody, motor mutts.


Wednesday January the 24th ~

Swingin' at the Speakeasy for free from 10 til 1.30


Thursday January the 25th ~

Open Air Cinema is presenting the main movie I've been anticipating this summer, Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone's Poor Things, the perfect flick to see on a sweltering Sydney evening by the harbour. By way of preamble, I'll be spinning songs of science, fantasy, travel and liberty from 6 til screen-up.


Saturday January the 27th ~

Jack Off emerges from another interval of pert performance pieces (hear Lewis Coleman's livewire bracket of last week here) ready to kick back and stew a few extended recordings from 3 til 5 on FBi.
Directly after I'm off to The Rocks to play twisted pop tunes for the savvy denizens of Maybe Sammy. My set runs betwixt 6 and 9. Entry is always gratis!

Core-strengthening concepts for those heading out...


Wednesday January the 17th ~

Swingin' at the Speakeasy is back at Palmer & Co. Tonight I'll follow George Washingmachine's live sets (and Pia's interstitial brackets) with another mad mosaic of music history. Free, from 10 til 2.


Friday January the 19th ~

Come Friday Sham DJs (Liz Ham and myself) will host our first Sin City Soirée for 2024, as the Hollywood Hotel reopens to all and sundry after their summer break. Pop along for a shimmy, a snog or both. Entry remains gratis for everyone. Five big hours from 9!


Saturday January the 20th ~

On Saturday you can experience Melbourne tourist Lewis Coleman Offline (or on) as Jack Off goes to air between 3 and 5 in the arvo.
Afterwards we can exercise our internal cravings for beer and food, whilst uplifting our spirits listening to tunes by local legends at the Bob Hawke Beer and Leisure Centre. 8.30 til 11.30. No charge!

A heady mix of mental music played outside and in.


Wednesday January the 10th ~

Delve deep inside and feel perplexing sensations down below at Palmer & Co. A free set from 10 til 2
.

Thursday January the 11th ~

Witness Wicked Little Letters writ large on a vast screen that rises out of the harbour down by the Botanic Gardens, as Sydney's Open Air Cinema manifests for another summer. I'll spin for several hours from 6, as the sun sinks and bats ascend.


Friday January the 12th ~

If you were dreaming of joining infamous injured stars for the extravagant excesses of our Sham DJs NYE shindig at Dean and Nancy on 22 but missed out due to a lack of funds / mystical equipment, do not despair - my solo bracket there this weekend is accessible entirely free of charge. 9PM til 12.30AM.


Saturday January the 13th ~

Jack Off is the penultimate stop on this week's itinerary. Tune in between 3 and 5 to discover exactly what kinda flash fare will air. Two polar opposites have been tossed up thus far: Alex Cameron and the Cosmic Psychos. I'd be stoked if we could welcome either back frankly. Time will tell!

Directly afterwards I'll be quenching my thirst with the most unimaginably inventive cocktails conceivable at Maybe Sammy, all whilst somehow multi-tasking by deejaying at the very same time! The complete caper is gratis betwixt 9 and 1.

Faint hopes falter whilst we soldier on regardless.
Thankfully the tasks at hand for me are free and aim to be elevating for all at this challenging time.


Friday January the 5th ~

Start at the Bob Hawke Beer and Leisure Centre this evening, with a three-hour set from 8.30 on.
Then double up at The Trocadero Room as I follow DJ Soup with a midnight til 3 set of every music ever.


Saturday January the 6th ~

Tune in to Jack Off between 3 and 5PM for a soothing suite of sonics that steer clear of the snipers and side-swipers whose ways are numbered.
Break free of any siege mentality and make a leap of faith to join me at the debut public outing of the Sydney Festival's new Moonshine Bar, the site of this gargantuan Hi-Vis art installation by Michael Shaw at Pier 2/3, down in Dawes Point.

Before Charlie Villas brings the bangers later, I'll spin 120 minutes of stunning summer songs at sundown - acknowledging the miracle of any of us having made it even this far, both together and alone.
