Played Rics last night with our new friends Suicide Swans and had a freakin ball doing it. Thanks to the chaps from Grand Atlantic who joined us on stage with percussive excellence on ‘Let’s Not Lose’. November is well upon us and we’re winding up the year with a final show on December 10 at … Read More

I believe it’s DowsEE,  on the strength of me having been corrected several years ago by a elderley chap that lived in the area. Yes the make up Rics show was my idea, but I don’t know that I can claim credit for the DowsEE residency.   Maybe I can..I dunno..  What’s important is that many … Read More

[singlepic id=228 w=320 h=240 float=right]So, a few months back we did a gig at Ric’s and accidentally got paid twice. Good times abounded in WAWT, with Band Practice becoming a frenzy of champagne, posh cheeses and endless expensive raucousness. Rics e mailed and said that they were aware of the discrepancy, and please could we … Read More

The tour’s going pretty well, thanks to the crowd at Woodland for making it the best show yet! We’re going to be doing a Thursday night residency at The Dowse Bar in Paddington throughout December, details shortly..There are one or two support slots left if you know anyone good, or you are someone good. Mixing … Read More

W/A/W/T SRING OFFENSIVE 2011

Well we finally got around to playing one of our very favourite venues yesterday and we had a bunch of fun.  Thanks so much to everyone who came out to see us at the powerhouse for Livespark.   It’s nice to play a near full room and feel the love.  To the choreographed dancers on the … Read More

[singlepic id=225 w=320 h=240 float=right]Mixing has commenced on the album, and we’re excited. Our first big Brisbane show where you can hear a bunch of the new songs played live will be this one. It’s good to be out playing the new songs, they feel good to play.. some of them were so new when … Read More

see..no one is safe.

the first contingency of WAWT arrived late last night..Dan’s on his way. We’re playing the Metro tonight with a fantastic lineup. It’s good to be back in town. Come along tonight, we’re on close to 11. Watch this space punters..all shenanigans will be reported. No one is safe.

So we finished recording the other night, it was cool. The last instrument to go down was the toy piano, on “Out of the Woods”. Skye played it. 2 takes. We did 15 songs all up, and here is a list of them, the ones in italics are our nicknames, we’re pretty crap with song … Read More

What??? Don’t worry..we’ve created our own mondegreen…well it’s pretty close to a mondegreen. What’s a mondegreen? We’re glad you asked…just look here. Just so Bono and his mates don’t go dragging us through law suit the whole line is…’if you sleep by the incinerator YOU TOO are gonna get cremated…sooner or later’. So yeah we’ve … Read More

Skye’s doing vocal takes…I’m blogging..We All Want To – vikings of the multitask!! We’ve thought of a little modification to our vocal comp predictor Ap’. It’s a random variable in which both parties agree on the same comp piece. It’s much like the neutral colour in roulette and the house wins, except in this case … Read More

Another couple of tracks done with drums and bass. Skye’s gearing up for vox fest this evening. Josh’ll be back from work later and it’s all going rather swimmingly. Piece of toast offerings thus far: one, with additional offer of crumpet. Ben’s doing his pass parts for ‘Park’. It’s gotta be lunch time isn’t it?

Four Tracks Done!!!! Today that is..in the last half hour nailed down track number four ‘Park’. I’d originally set a list of four to do, changed it to five, but it wasn’t meant to be. Four it is..and it’s all sounding rather sweet. Pretty knackered and my ears are doing some pretty fierce ringing.. Back … Read More
