Well I reckon the catch phrase for this season of The Loft Live should
be �party, party, party!!�.  It was another storming success and we even
had a real reason to celebrate!  It was SASCHA, the floor manager's,
birthday and we decided the night couldn't go by without some mention of
it.  Someone managed to dig a cake from the food bin out the back, which
they made look like brand new to present Sascha with at the end of the
show.  We even managed to programme that swirling magic ball how to say
�Happy Birthday....so it just shows what a great team we all are!

So, after our late night drinking session, it is back to the grindstone,
which means this review comes to you through bleary eyes and a
two-second memory span!  If only the band �The Memory Man� were around
to help me out with some of their great tunes to stir the brain cells.
Alas, I must soldier on and tell you what went on with Dave O�Neil and
Justin Smith from Rent.

Dave O�Neil told us probably more about Kate Langbroek than himself.
He's a busy man, with a finger in every comedy pie in Australia, and he
works with Kate Langbroek on Triple RRR�s The Breakfasters everyday!
I'm sure we're destined to see more of his face on the Teevee at some
point.  He is more famed for his work behind the scenes writing than for
getting his face on screen.  He does however take responsibility for the
terrible level to which Full Frontal has stooped over the past few
seasons, but blames lack of sleep.  We'll give him the benefit of the
doubt considering the hours he puts in!

A comedy pie Dave is involved loosely in at the moment is helping The
Sherryls raise funds for their Edinburgh Festival tour.  They introduced
us to three of The Sherryls during the comedy spot on the show and it
was hilarious.  I've never been to Moe, but I imagine these
stereotypical �Sherryls� exist somewhere in everyone's suburban
background!

Scott had some excitement this week with his chance to do a live
satellite cross to Justin Smith, just as he was about to go on stage for
Rent at the Comedy Theatre.   He even managed to race back to the studio
in time to hold a conversation with Ged and Bernie on the
couch....AMAZING! Anyone would think it was pre-taped or something.

Matilda's been a bit high-strung lately and with her recent research on
violence we all figured that she would have known how to control
herself.  Poor Ged - had his phone smashed by Matilda - but Ged should
have known better than leaving it on during the show.  Scott, kind
enough to bring Ged a nice HOT cup of coffee, was not appreciated by
Matilda - sorry Scott, but coffee really does stain.  The boom op. and
the floor manager, sascha, also got a mouth full...  Hopefully, Matilda
will remember to take her medication this week.

The book �Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex....but were
afraid to ask�, again gave us some stunning fascist statements to add
fervor to another week.  It was written in 1969 and it is absolutely
amazing that the man who wrote this book was alive and writing during
the sexual revolution.  It sounds more like it is from the world of
�don't play with it or it will send you blind� school of thinking.

Bernie and Ged had more couch chatter for those of us who love being
couch potatoes, and that's where I'm off now....to watch some great
teevee.

So stay tuned in to The Loft Live on Thursday's and if you want to send
any feed back, e-mail Ged via his address at the bottom of his
biography!
