• My debut studio album “In Bed With My Doona” has secured national distribution through MGM in conjunction with Nan and Pop Records. This means that, in theory, you can buy the album at any record store in Australia. Due to alphabetical merits it is first on MGM’s extensive list of new releases. It is also on the Sanity website:

You are advised to get on board the capitalist treadmill immediately. It was my birthday on june 12 – there’s an excuse to buy a lazy unit or twenty.
A representative of Nan and Pop records made this statement: ‘That’s very good Justin. Let’s hope you sell a few.’

• The other day, while walking home from Officeworks, I had this EXACT thought in my head – “I’ll get that stuff out of the way then I can start sinking my teeth into my own shit.” This has confused some people when I re-tell it. What I mean is, what I meant to say was ‘Once I get these superflous tasks done, I can concentrate on working on my own art. But it came out funny. I thought.
* Last Saturday, I got the group I was with kicked out of a trashy Melbourne nightclub due to a spontaneous interpretive dance. It involved me flopping over the four Daytona Link-up video game chairs, rolling into the pedal trench, getting stuck, and kicking over a fake pot plant with my foot. I was eventually ‘helped up’ by large, surly bouncers saying ‘you’re a f#%kin idiot.’
