My buddy Heather is a great photographer and one of the reasons why I got in to photography. She also helped me out a lot with what equipment to get and stuff like that so I owe her big time.

You may know her as the administrator of www.bunglefever.com and she also maintains the ftp.bunglefever.com repository. Oh and her beardless better half runs a little place called CacaVolante.

Anyway she recently attended the Faith No More Warfield 13th and 14th shows and took some very nice photos which are now residing at her flickr. Check them out:

America’s funny man Neil Hamburger will be performing his only solo Australian show on the Faith No More tour trail this Tuesday the 23rd of Feb supported by Melbournites Sex On Toast (featuring members of Umlaut):

“Melbourne’s own Sex on Toast, featuring members of Umlaut, have scored the support to Neil Hamburger’s only Australian club date at The Toff in Town Feb 23rd, a triple bill with the world’s worst parlour magician, Dr El Suavo. Sex on Toast’s energetic, irreverent, hilarious shows feature surf guitar, cool ’70′s pop and jazz infused fun tunes. A perfect opener for the legendary NEIIIILLLLLLL HAMBUUURGER!”

Get down there if you can!

America’s Funny Man Neeeeeeiiiiil Hamburger will be supporting Faith No More alongside the Eagles of Death Metal, at the Sydney and Melbourne side shows on Feb 22, and 25th.

The comb-over sporting, tux wearing comedian played by Gregg Turkington, last spat humour (…literally) into the hungry faces of Patton fans at All Tomorrows Parties’ Nightmare Before Christmas,  2008.

With the FNM dates listed on his myspace, he will also be playing his own gig at the Toff in Town, Melbourne on Feb 23 with none other than Dr El Suavo. Get tickets for that night of magic, mayhem, hilarity and insult from moshtix.

Neil Hamburger and FNM… Australia, you’ve been warned!

America’s funnyman returns to Australian shores this month for a “Country Winners” tour and will also apparently be supporting a couple of well known punk outfits, Bad Religion and NOFX. Word on the street is Danny Heifetz will be manning the skins for the Country Winners shows.

UPDATE (from Prawn in comments):

“Just a note to anyone going to see Neil Hamburger in Sydney, the dates on his myspace page are wrong – The Drunken Spelling Bee at the Bald Faced Staf is on Saturday 3rd, the gig at the Manning Bar is on Friday 2nd (they’re listed as the other way round on his webpage).”

On July 17th 2009, the now famous and infamous hamburger bed spent some intimate moments on it’s final night at creator Kayla Kromer’s home in Austin, Texas with a special someone.

That someone was it’s namesake and kindred spirit, none other than NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEILLLL HAMBURGERRRRRR!

Neil helped pimp his friend later that evening at his show at Emo’s, and shortly after the bed successfully sold on ebay for $3000! For more info on Kayla Kromer’s sexilicious hamburger bed, check out www.hamburgerbed.com
