Hi all J
Why has this mailing list & homepage been so quiet lately?
Besides being a manic party animal, reliable DJ and overworked promoter since Christmas season??
Hold tight for a bumper load of gig announcements, FK5 party photos and a new web design! The Got Funk? site www.gotfunk.com.au is undergoing modifications… apologies for the serious lack of updating while I’m changing internet providers.
Things will be back to normal pace very soon… Gig listings & my (sometimes) questionable blog can always be found on myspace, drop by and say hi! www.myspace.com/got_funk
Hope you can join us in April as the crew thrown down our next event; with big hair, phat laces, and the funkiest beats. The 2nd instalment of My Broken Beat Box happens this ANZAC eve. In the meantime there’s a bumper load of gigs coming up, including my debut appearance at OFFBEAT this Sunday. Trust, come & check the Back to Mine styles with afternoon BBQ, beers & some quality humans playing fabulous music from 4pm!
Thanks for reading & don’t forget to have a great weekend! Much love xo ides
MY BROKEN BEAT BOX [#2]
ANZAC DAY EVE

Has your beat has been looped too often?
Nostalgic for a cowbell?
Need a dirty block party rap bout chicks & food & just having fun?
Or a place to throw down your bboy dance-off styles versus the chronic
hipsters?
Rock steady, cause your favourite local funk-break DJs are bringing it all back... Lil Stormer, DJ Ides, Brain & DJ Snowie return this Anzac Eve with a nite of dope breaks, funk beats, hip hop classics & their legendary block party antics!

The latest Off Beat at Workshop features some of the
biggest names in the history of the world.
On the cards:
SNOOP DOGG
WHITEBOYZ
JEFF BUCKLEY
DIEGO MARADONA
HITLER!
Britney Spears
Custards, one of the world's biggest new artists

and cycling tips for a nice toned ass by Lance Armstrong
We have live pyrotechnics which we launch off Workshop's open deck, and a
20,000 watt sound system with a wall of subwoofers that your mama will be proud
of.
The evening is hosted by Mr. T.
Also on the cards are:
MS. IDES
QAMMOH (further disguising his
camo identity)
TIGGA & BLAKE (only one will
live past this night)
LEPHRENIC (playing space rock)
SEA (playing orchestral, ambient,
and coffin inducing downtempo)
IDM, downtempo, hip-hop, trip-hop, orchestral, breaks and electro lounge sounds
are to be expected.
All this and more for $160+BF, which gives you half-priced cocktails for the
first 25 minutes. You will enjoy the luxury of our 3-star toilets, and the
possible introduction of Australia's
first Midget Bar.
At the BBQ we will be burning effigies of popular political and religious
figure heads.
You will not have more fun, because fun is no more than a three letter word.
Hope to see you there…
