WHERE: Brisbane Hotel
"Tonight Amanda plays a secret midnight practice gig as a rehearsal for her new Australian band (it's at the Brisbane Hotel. You didn't hear it from me), and she's invited me along to do something onstage, but I suspect that if I've been up since 6 am, I may not feel like performing or even feel like being awake at midnight. We'll see."

Saturday, 8:00-11:00pm
WHERE: Mona Foma Main Stage
WHAT
------
8pm: Neil reads THE TRUTH IS A CAVE IN THE BLACK MOUNTAINS, accompanied by FourPlay and Eddie Campbell paintings.
9:30pm: Amanda performs.
"Tomorrow both Amanda and I play at the Mona Foma Main Stage (it's on the other side of the white building in the photo). I go on at 8 pm to read THE TRUTH IS A CAVE IN THE BLACK MOUNTAINS, with FourPlay accompanying me, and Eddie Campbell paintings (and, I hope, Eddie Campbell there too, but am not yet certain about Eddie: he's coming from flooded Brisbane, after all).
Amanda goes on at 9:30pm."
Location:

WHERE:
Sydney Opera House
Concert Hall
Main Stage
"Amanda's playing Sydney Opera House Main Stage on the 26th of January, and she's decided she wants other people up on the stage, for guest spots, and, because I loved playing the Opera House last year, I've agreed to be one of them.
Not sure what I'll do yet -- either some "Best Of..." moments, or something completely new.
Either way, it's bound to be an extremely unlikely evening."
