This was a good idea when I was drunk on red wine.
Watched the inaugural Jack Awards on Foxtel last night (instead of an awards podium , let's have a bar . Get it? Because Jack Daniels is alcohol and musicians drink to excess . Genius).
My, the Australian music industry can be fun.
Our very own 'supergroup' performed Cold Chisel's Star Hotel. Sarah McLachlan from SuperJesus, one of those two guys who aren't Daniel Johns from Silverchair, 'The Funny One' from Powderfinger and that mad genius bastard Luke Steele from The Sleepy Jackson. What did they call themselves? Why, SuperFingersSleepyChair of course. What a lark!
So through mouthfuls of dried figs and a great deal more alcohol, I dreamily invented* the supergroups who SHOULD have played:
Blackeyed Girls' Dirty Blobs
Fighting Baby God
Three Spazzys, No Monkeys
Even Dark Susans Like Fellatio
Killing Cat Empire In Helsinki (I know that one's kind of lame. I just wanted to do something that showed how fucking gay the Cat Empire is. Check out my rapier-sharp wit, oooh.)
Your Git Sounds Beautiful
Magic Double Steamer Night**
Alex Lloyd Is A Big Fat Twat. ***
* You too can play this extra-fun game in your own time! I used bands from the Aus Music Scrapbook but you can choose your own pub rock favourites! WATCH THE HOURS FLY BY!
**Even though the idea of watching Adalita from Magic Dirt, the Double Agents, By Ferry Or Steamer and Your Wedding Night team up to create music makes me very happy, somehow the notion of finding a restaurant that was holding a Magic Double Steamer Night pleases me more. Sorry.
***This one isn't a supergroup. He really is a big fat twat.
