Okay, perhaps not so independent since I'm her father, but Amanda was sensational today with the Ukes as the support act and back-up singer for the Blackeyed Susans. The gig was at the Northcote Social Club which is a hotel in - you guessed it - Northcote. It was the second of two shows in Melbourne. The first show last night was a sell-out and the matinee today didn't have much room left in the standing-room-only performing space. I'm not too good with crowd estimates but I'm thinking over 100,000. The Ukes introduced the show with a 25 minute set which was very well received. The Blackeyed Susans had them on stage for at least half their songs and they added plenty of glamour and lush harmonies.
They'll be in Sydney on November 6 and 7 at the Vanguard in Newtown, and the Adelaide Princes will have a chance to see them on November 14 in Norwood. You know what you have to do...

November 14 in Adelaide, hmm... They aren't by any chance supporting the hilltop hoods are they?
There will not be a single hood in sight, hilltop or otherwise. Anyone wanna come? Ash and Cath- you will love it! Andrew and Rowan, you will be mildly entertained! Any girls you bring will swoon uncontrollably throughout the night. It's very swoony music. You would be my honoured guests...also...I'll buy you a drink that I get for free. Hows the couch/floor situation in Adelaide these days? Regretfully my usual suite at the Ritz is unavailable...
And what are all your phone numbers? I've lost/broken a number of phones since the last tour.
You had me at "mildly entertained".
0417 898 049 - Ash

There should be a bed or a couch available somewhere... unless some hoodrat swoon's in and takes it.
Amanda, I will try and make the Sat show in Newtown but I have suffered an Oztag injury so my swooning may be a little off.
There is a bed at my place in Redfern if there is no room at the Sydney Ritz. I do a mean vegemite on toast.
Hey Rowan, I don't think that it's healthy to take advice from the 40 year old virgin's mates. I don't believe that you have to go through a hoodrat phase in order to find love. I'm sure it will just happen for you one day..
