Well it's just over halfway through the MICF and the show I am somewhat affiliated with, Insert Name Here (The Prequel Sequel) is going strong. I've been to about 4 of the shows so far and there's an awesome line up of genuinely hilarious and hilariously bad short films to see in the line-up, plus some winners from last year (such as the ever loved "Kung Fu Kitties"), with Jaymie at the front of it all as this years workhorse, and doing pretty well for it.

The show runs at 6 pm on Sundays and Wednesdays at Bar Open, 317 Brunswick street (which is a few doors up from the cnr of Johnston and Brunswick street).

Also, for those city bound tomorrow, be at the Melbourne Town Hall (Crn of Collins and Swanston Street) at 4pm to see INH show host and comedian Jaymie Wilson plus fellow comedian Dead Eizenburg (plus countless others) ransack the area in zombie makeup and garb. It'll definitely be something to see.
I'll be there snapping pictures for sure.

Just waiting for some reviews for the show - if they're anything like last years, that'll be great.

Speaking of great shows, I saw Zack Adam's Elevator (uplate!) on Wednesday night with a lady friend and it was pretty damn funny. I met him last year at the Adelaide Fringe and caught his show at last years MICF and it was pretty good, so it was a no brainer to check out his new one this year. It was a fun show with a theatric bent that really held the attention of the audience in an involving way - not by actual participation but maybe it was something to do with the cosy atmosphere of the venue, or the fact that Zack (or Shane, I should say) performed as if he was actually speaking to the members of the audience, rather than just a sea of faces. 
He's got another show at Pony on the 25th I think so anybody in the vicinity of Melbourne should check it out. I even got a free badge. You won't though. But it's cute.

Unrelated stuff: I bought the new NIN album today (Year Zero), may do a little thing about it later. I heard alot of it off their own website, but I have a thing about actually getting to own the albums - having the packaging and CD in your hot little hands. Will definitely give it a work out very soon.
