Gonna go:
Rock ‘n’ Roll Nerd (TBA) 100 mins
Starts Thursday 30th October at
LUNA LEEDERVILLE

Filmed over 3 years, Rock ‘n’ Roll Nerd is an intimate tale that charts musician/comedian Tim Minchin’s meteoric rise from obscurity to celebrity. Capturing every moment of Tim’s first frenzied break onto the comedy scene the documentary weaves never-before-seen performance footage, backstage antics, home footage and candid interviews into a funny and deeply personal story of love and ambition. A big hit at the recent Melbourne International Film Festival.
… yeah, I’ll probably be the oldest member of this board there. Go ahead, mock me and my 30-something dress-sense (‘I was emo before you were born!’) as I hobble past you young ‘uns, as I mutter the lyrics of DAAS’s ‘Funk You’ under my breath….
But know as I roll my walker over your fashionable shoes and pop my 18-year old Doc Martens on the seat in front of me, that I was on a panel with James Randi only last month.
[Just throwing that in there in case that Minchin fellow ever wants to get jealous.]

*sings*
Funk you! And funk your mother
Funk your sister, funk your auntie and funk your little brother
When you’ve learned how to funk one another
Don’t leave that groovy thing on the shelf
Go home to the one you love and (pause) funk yourself!
*finish sings*
*solidarity*
And it’ll be a ‘Broad Lic Nic’ on the night! And I’ll tell you whilst I’m able…
