* i saw magic dirt at the annandale the other night and it was the most amazing thing i have seen in a gazillion years. i cried when they opened with babycakes!!!!! it was so noisy and intense and brutal and inspiring. i am bursting just thinkin about it (stop thinkin about it, stop thinkin about it) //gush gush gush swoon swoon swoon youtubing clips all night//. anyone who isn’t feeling me on this needs to go and get educated about magic dirt. that’s it. ok

the amazing anna vo has organised two awesome shows this august (19th & 21st)… i want more ‘a’ alliteration alligators!

there’s gonna be several collaborations between bands on both nights so prepare for some aural symbiosis.

we’re only playing the friday 21st show… details are down there… in the murky waters below

sorry about the late notice…

** educate yourself before you talk smack – check this link.

UPDATE!

THIS SHOW HAS BEEN POSTPWNED.

SORRY FOR THE LATE NOTICE!!

we have a show this month and your attendance would be appreciated, acknowledged, treasured. you would be listened to. you wouldn’t leave cynical and bitter. you would feel peaceful and/or g-d. maybe you’ll smile to yourself as you walk to the train station.~

here’s deets for somethin neat:

animal-rights-section-of-the-library fundraiser *

there aren’t enough books about animal lib in the jura library. obviously, it will be ballin’ as after this fundraiser.

// friday 10th july

// with earthlings and more!!

// jura library (440 parramatta rd, petersham)

// $8 – $12 donation

// may involve undulating otter dance moves

xstefffffff

~ wow… sometimes i even weird myself out

* yep, cos we’re so eloquent we get bored of elegant forms and go out of our way to construct clunky bad shit

coming at you with the big stick, and the quicksand, the spinning circle, and the pouring of the shame

don’t ask why beheaded monozygotic twin men have been chosen as visual accompaniment to the information.

that’s it, the stray kittens are calling me,

PLEASE NOTE:

this is not actually a farewell for paint it black. go and buy some cds from them, otherwise there may be a farewell show sometime in the not too distant future. there’s an economic crisis and all, y’know!

big ups to dancers at friday night’s show.

also, thanks to luka for this drawing:

we shall play some more shows soon. end of june i believe. check the page for deets!

that’s right – the hiatus is officially over and we’re exposing our new musical selves to the world! come down to the fabulous red rattler theatre for some guaranteed good times.

we are also resurrecting the mailing list, so if you’d like a little note from us every month or so, drop us a line at: thethawthethaw (at) gmail (dot) com and we’ll put you on the list.

thaws are bringing it back old skool style! watch out y’all, cos we have many new “riffs”, “blobs” and figures 1.1 through 1.5., all of which are increasingly exciting and shall result in ever widening grins on our faces.

prepare the interpretive dances. you have been warned!

translation:

we are making rad tunes in preparation for public broadcast.
