What are you up to? Not a lot, thanks. I'm sitting on my arse preparing to do a little show at THE SYDNEY FUCKING OPERA HOUSE! It's a big deal. I come from Adelaide originally.

Why should people get along to your show? I wear bread.

What’s the best pub/venue/bar/restaurant in Sydney, and why? The Courthouse Hotel in Newtown – for a rowdy session. The dumpling joint in Ultimo/Chinatown under the ugly pink marble escalator - errr, for dumplings. Also the Laksa joint under the QVB and Pasteur on George Street for Pho.

What’s the best joke you’ve heard recently? Something about a cat eating a Vienetta (ice cream dessert).

Xbox 360 vs Wii vs PS3: who wins? I was a povo kid: we had none of this. I played with sticks and rocks.

What’s the best song about Sydney, and why? I dont really know any apart from a bit in 'Khe Sanh', but I love the reference to Glebe Point bridge in You Am I's 'Purple Sneakers'. I lived in Glebe for just under a year, I miss the fig trees (so whimsical I want to vom).
