ra-do-i November 17th, 2008
On Saturday Luke and I had the opportunity to represent FisherKing in a radio interview. We guest hosted the ‘Australian Muso Show‘ on SWR 99.9. It was a lot of fun. We were both pretty clueless with our answers and with what to say, but we gave it a go.
I have edited the interview and posted it here. Download it and have a listen if you want - FisherKing SWR Interview. If you do listen to it, you’ll find it a little fragmented - I had to chop out all the songs that were played in between. Hopefully this isn’t our last chance at an interview, cause we can only get better! Hopefully there will be many more to come.
lady-rex November 17th, 2008

I took this the other day cause it looked like ‘the lady on the mantle’ had a t-rex shadow chasing her. How would you escape from that? Probably just go into a dark room hey.
This is easily one of the dumbest inventions that I have even seen. It takes the iPhone and turns it into a massive game console just so you can play the games slightly more accurately. It is the Game Grip.
Oh no. Did the inventor not understand the concept of mobile phone? Now one would have to buy a backpack to carry their iPhone, Game Grip and gaming gloves.

I was a little disappointing that I missed out on seeing John Scofield in concert the last week … then I found out he was doing a workshop at the conservatorium for free. BAM!
Rocked up 10 minutes before it started and Baher, Luke and I sat our bad asses in the front row - even though it was packed, people had left three seats at the front. Must have known we were coming. I was a metre from him and his pedal board (gee he had some cool toys). It was unbelievable. He was an brilliant guitarist and such a down to earth and inspiring guy.
Found out through a series of phone calls, that tonight FisherKing was played on triple j! Not only where we played, but Rosie Beaton found us through our Unearthed page and liked our song so much that she decided to play it. Not only that, but then (on air I am told) a review was written on our unearthed page.

All this happened at around 8:30pm or so. Pretty stoked at the moment. Hopefully this will be the start of many. And yeah! That is a 4/5 stars.
Next step is to get Crazy Days in Tokyo played … somehow I don’t think the world is ready for that though.
