HELLO FELLOW FOLKERS . . Since the last post re Newstead and ‘Drowning in Lunatic Soup’ we have been inundated with a restrained variety of calls . . some said . . ‘Froday afternoon! strewth we can’t make it, we’ve got something better to do’. . (cheesy chortlers) the others offered nothing. Fair enough. Fartified by these rejections we set to . . (S.A.T)

Quelle to do ? . . We have made furniture, comforted by throwing cushions, from boxes of the ‘Unsold Works of Weaver of Dreams’ . . Taking up too much room in our hearts and minds and sheds. So, every huperson (except Michaela Cash who isn’t) what walk through the gig door, gets a Jack S album for S.F.A . . providing they don’t walk back out before we’ve finished doing our ‘Drowning’ bit . .

ON TOP OF THAT . . this is the best show we’ve ever done next year . . you will identify with the Hapless Man, weep for Scots Annie and want to shake minds with Uncle Jimbo . . and not be haunted by Erik the Ted . .
Our war cry . . No Music on A Dead Planet. .
. . we would like to say more . . but a picture outstares 246 words . .

THE JOLTINGLY, ELECTRIC DINGOS IN FULL HOWL!!

Re Newstead ’24 . . . update . . the Dingo’s Brea/fast is pitching it selves into the New Year as ‘Dingo Indignatio’ . . we have just had enough of being nice . . our Show? you will be sobbing into your shoes. You may wonder ‘will this affect me??’ Ken Oath it will my precious burdens of Acute Disappointment . . Here’s the ‘Why of It’

Drowning in Lunatic Soup is a heart-wrenching litany, laced with unkempt doggerel, peevish poetry, and infused with an unbalanced threnody of bleak songs . . songs of repressed violence and injustice, and the whole shebang enlivened with graphic PowerPoint images. All to upset your equilibrium (we can’t wait !) Could be a laugh. . Uncle Jimbo, the Hapless Man and Scots Annie, all caustically informing you what ‘we didn’t do’ and what is ‘coming next’. It’s a lot of fun.

Joining us, covering our musical sins of omission are cherished mates, two most ‘Honourable Dingos’ . . a nonpareil executant of the Accordion, AKA Peter Anderson !! and the steely, dangerously amiable Ryan Tews, Percussionist-fecking-lovely. As an additional bonus . . we will be presenting as a punter’s prize for just Being There . . at this gig . . a Jack Sorensen’s CD!

Not only that,. we will also be hosting a couple of possibly politically incorrect Poetry Breakfasts and a Quiz Show, studded with Stars that will leave you wondering . .

It is with deep regret and a heavy heart that once again the Dingo’s Breakfast Duo (John Angliss and Roger Montgomery) is cancelling their NSW tour due to ongoing health problems. The last several years have not been kind to our bodies. We thought we were ready to go, with problems rectified, but unfortunately not so, not enough, we have been told, to face the rigors of touring. So we are taking a six month leave of absence, hopefully by the end of the year we will have a better, brighter picture to present to our friends out there in regards to our future.
This was not a decision taken lightly. But no point havering on, the die is cast and we shall endeavour to reset and get back on the beloved road, to be among our friends again again. Thank you.
