One of the freshest comedians to hit the Sydney comedy scene, Mikey loves to make people laugh, whether it be with jokes, or at gun point.
His clever comedy style and witty punchlines always leave the audience wanting more.

The Comedy Store, Sydney
Comedy on The Edge, Sydney

The Laugh Garage, Sydney

Who I'd like to meet: Jonathan Davis, Wayne Static, Steven Wright, Arj Barker (done), a real Vampire, and some aliens.
Besides Friday which we are launching some of Death Metals Legends SUFFOCATION on Saturday the Basement itself turns 2 years old! Much younger than it's Dj's but running longer than our Prime Minister! So be sure to pop in on the night for some glorified haggardness.
Heaps of giveaways on the night!
Remember! Friday Night it's $4 Spritis all night and on both Fri and Sat it's a double happy hour from 9 - 11!

I have started band management and my first project THE KIDNEY THIEVES from Brisbane will be playing at the clubs, Blink and Trash in Sydney this weekend. They are on stage both nights from 10 - 11pm, check them out, its like Ash Phoenix meets Mr Bungle on heat!! If you wanna hop on the industry guest list and check em out for free, text your email address to 0415 692 901 and say TKT in the message!! This bad is unreal and these events will be massive
Never before has this been done, and hopefully it will be
successfully repeated after this all over the world, again and again….
Our aim is to bring together poets from all over, who
produce all genres of poetry for a night of mingling, poetry, shameless self
promotion…. Each poet will have the opportunity
to read their work on stage, sell their work to those who would like to buy,
and mingle with the best poets of our generation.
It will be held on Saturday, July 11, 2009 at 9 PM
And the owner of STUDIO PARK in Atlanta has been gracious
enough to open his doors to us without charging us ANYTHING!!!
You seriously CAN’T miss this~you HAVE to be there! It is the chance of the lifetime, and the
bigger we make it, the more attention we poets will get.
Poetry is NOT dead~let’s show the world that it is living
and breathing~
***BTW~we are looking for a talented DJ to spin between
reads~so if you have what it takes or know someone who does, please email me.
****ALL are welcome!
Whether you are a poet, or love poetry, we hope you will all come, tell
your friends about it, and your friends’ friends-blog it, bulletin it, email
it, scream about it from the rooftops~Whatever it takes!!!
YES! I do too, but I can't breathe, I can't sleep and my head is throbbing....I went to the Pharmacy last night and she hooked me up, so I hope with these meds I can get to feeling better. I am not coming in this afternoon to work. We might actually do that. Send a text my way and remind me, if you don't mind. I'd love to do that! We are SOOO loving our vacation time and love being around people too. the extra money we made from taking those paid surveys online helped out so much!! you should really do them too; i mean, hey, the extra money comes in handy, right? i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is:
