TOBIAS & BARTHOLOMEW present

DIE ROTEN PUNKTE All the way from Berlin! He’s Otto. She’s Astrid. They’re brother and sister… and they’re in the greatest rock’n’roll band in the world; Die Roten Punkte. Living in a lipstick smeared self-important punk rock mess, sibling rivalry never tasted so good.

“A deliciously quirky and original piece of comic nonsense…” The Advertiser “Iggy Pop-esque posing from Otto, Björk attitude from Astrid… the sulky sibling dynamics wonderfully awkward, and the level of self-delusion spot-on.” The Age “Die Roten Punkte are angry, narcissistic tantrum-lovers… it’s observation of rock music’s pouty pretentiousness is sharply done.” Sydney Morning Herald

GREG FLEET in Fleetle Mania Fleety intends to show the world the true nature of the love we share. But, where to start…? Recounting a life of living on nothing but good pizza and great wine for 6 months while doing breakfast radio on SAFM? The great Haigs chocolate raid of 2002? Of course there were the days that didn't get on so well….like the time the roof of the Austral fell on Fleety...but that was then, this is now. Clever themes are out, mania is in! Kick back and cop some Fleetle Mania.

"Utterly fresh…utterly hilarious." The Scotsman "A wild great show!" Herald Sun

THE ADVENTURES OF THE MAN WITH THE DOMINANT CLAW

ANDREW McCLELLAND'S Mixed Tape

Born with a giant crab claw for a right arm, every day Jordan Raskopoulos (TV’s The Ronnie Johns Half Hour) struggles in a country where he ‘looks like a lobster, but feels like a whore’. This is his powerful story. An hour of comedy, music, stories and seafood. There’s even an obligatory giant notepad.

Andrew McClelland loves music. From chart pop, indie, power pop, be-bop, country, electronica, soul, doo-wop to metal, thrash, grind, hard and various other 'cores'. From the fellow who brought you the award winning 'History of Pirates' and 'The Somewhat Secret Secret Society Show' comes a story about the important things in life. A celebration of music... with jokes.

CHRONICLES OF A SLEEPLESS MOON The Suitcase Royale Something strange is happening atop Roogs Hill, a plan to go underground is afoot and all the cows in the district are dead! A tale of dastardly deeds and unfathomable adventure - the Butcher and the Doctor are up to something and the Newsman sniffs a story that will take him deep into the dead heart of Australia. Deliciously dark, exquisitely crafted and hilariously told.

“Wallace and Gromit meets David Lynch… One of the best shows I have ever seen.” Montreal Gazette

TOM TOM CLUB More dance party than performance, more energy than Red Bull and more havoc than a car crash. Join Ben Walsh (The Bird), Tom Thum (Duo World Champion Beat Boxer) & scratch master DJ Dizz1 as they mix it with some of Australia’s most hardcore tumblers and acrobats in this late night extravaganza. The Tom Tom Club is a total collision between driving rhythms and awe inspiring physical spectacle. Don’t miss this wild ride of supercharged breaks, bleeps, beats and flips.

MEN OF STEEL The runaway smash hit of last year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival is coming to The Garden! They Come, They See, They Conquer.

Featuring popcorn, watermelon killing and the felling of a broccoli forest, our cooks whip up three uproarious, mess-filled episodes BACK TO BACK!

URBAN SHADOWS Jean-Paul Bell

RORY McLEOD UK

The Australian Premiere of a unique one person mimeo drama prior to its European Tour; Urban Shadows follows the wonderings of an outcast on the fringe of society, who is a resilient survivor conjuring up his own world of ritual, joy and romance. A tribute to the silent art of “thought acting”, much loved before the advent of talkies.

Rory McLeod, ex circus clown and fire-eater, a one-man soul band, poet and master storyteller, a modern traveling troubadour, and a political activist. His performance skills are exceptional. A harmonica maniac and trombone tragic, tap shoes and flying spoons, percussion and finger cymbals, driving guitar, howls and groans, like a real blues shouter he holds nothing back in his legendary performances.

FLAT ON YOUR BACHARACH

JUDE ELLIOT & TECOMA

Hailed by the Sydney Morning Herald as "powerful, sassy performers", Adelaide’s own nationally acclaimed 'Flat on your Bacharach' are back in town to take you on their intimate, mischievous travels through 40 years of Burt Bacharach's songbook. "...a skilful, affectionate tribute to Burt and Hal's oeuvre." (Whatever that means!)

A stunning double bill of new Australian talent. Jude Elliot has newly become recognized as one of Australia's most outstanding original female singer/pianist/guitarists and "showcases one of the more fully formed musical visions to find voice in recent times." With songs born in the desert and shaped in the city, Tecoma's unique mix of influences range from contemporary roots, to jazz and traditional middle eastern music styles. This is bold new music by one of only two Australian acts selected to play at Berlin's prestigious Popkomm festival in 2005.

SUZANNAH ESPIE & THE YEARLINGS

Two of Australian's finest young music talents. Strong melodies and powerful, emotive storytelling are synonymous with the name Monique Brumby.

Jude Elliot has become recognized as one of Australia's most outstanding original female singer/pianist/guitarists and "showcases

one of the more fully formed musical visions to find voice in recent times."

The "Bless This House" tour, featuring The Yearlings and Suzannah Espie with Ian Collard, cherishes the warmth and intimacy of homegrown music. The two duos are on the road (with Suzannah and Ian's baby in tow) performing in intimate, "listening" spaces perfect for the rootsy, acoustic, harmony-laden music which all four musicians hold dear.

THE HIPTONES

THE FUELERS present The Gringo-Deluxe Chicken Show

The Hiptones' stunning debut album 'Right Now' was recorded and mixed in four days in the Summer of 2006, and was then picked up for world-wide distribution by Sony BMG. Their extraordinary rise since then has seen them gather outstanding reviews for their album and live performances, and has the likes of Renee Geyer, Ross Wilson and James Black seriously singing their praises. Last year's performance was one of the best of the fest. www.thehiptones.com

Once again The Fuelers are penniless. Their manager, Johnny Crankshaft has taken all their pay to the track and come out second best. To turn a dollar they’ll do anything; sell chainsaws, chocolates and raffle chooks. Watch them cook up a whole batch of spaghetti-western, char-grilled racing tunes.
