May have jumped the gun a bit. @ashlyferg and I were in @Dymocksbooks Adelaide this afternoon and I asked for the new @anderson_lainie book and the lovely helpful staff tried to find it for me. TIL it doesn't get released until August! #keenas #doraday

@anderson_lainie @HachetteAus Kate is great and deserves the plaudits but her offsider Annie Ross often gets forgotten https://t.co/p57iU5FGUA #ADL #PortAdelaide

@ADLfringe - can't hardly wait!

It's almost Adelaide Fringe time. Delighted to perform Sweet Home Songs in Clare Valley where I grew up. 17/2 at HATs Courthouse in Auburn. A sort of homecoming ... https://t.co/9QQv4wprEM

And the first single (the title track) is now available for streaming in all the usual places - if you buy a copy on Bandcamp you also get a bonus live version of another song from our Fringe shows "Clare (With the Auburn Hair)" https://t.co/IyuGa6bTGg

Finally releasing a new album of songs from our Fringe shows celebrating life in South Australia (in collaboration with Doctor D). Launch gig for "Back in ADL" this Friday night (20/10) at The Jade in Adelaide. More info below.

@elee_bella @nordacious That is genius!

@joshfornermusic @ashlyferg There's no use crying over spilled milk. Spilled wine, however ...

@ashlyferg @markrprior Such a beautiful capture. I want to walk through that doorway ...

@oldenoughtosay I was hiding under my grandparents couch watching Pyramids of Mars though my fingers and holding my breath so the mummy wouldn't hear me.

@ashlyferg and I made the pilgrimage to the corner of Adelaide and Albert Streets in Brisbane (in the pouring rain!) to take the ceremonial selfie where @TrentDalton set up his typewriter to record strangers' love stories - thanks, Trent, for capturing such heartache and beauty

@Jacob_Brogan That's what the sale meant by 15% off.

@stavvers My grandma wouldn't let my pop wear jeans because she didn't approve of them. After she died he wore them so frequently that when he eventually passed we buried him in them.

@MFWitches I'm on my phone so decided to count ... 302. Um. Then I couldn't find this tweet to reply. Then I forgot for many hours. I have two computers which both have hundreds of other tabs open across multiple browsers (chrome, opera, edge and firefox). I think I may have a problem.

@seananmcguire My poor, half-asleep musician brain was horrified at the idea of using a mandolin for cutting vegetables until I managed to re-parse the sentence and now I'm just afraid of losing fingers.
