#3: Bachelorette

You know Rav. He's written lot's of great things for this little website, including this mild massacring of The Vasco Era, this abusive bullying of Rivers Cuomo and this lovely little anti-marijuana/pro-brat-punk rub down.

In addition to his journalistic capabilities, Rav is also a fairly Top Bloke. In fact, he's so nice he even recently let us have the keys to his apartment for a few hours. Instead of hosting a marathon slip-n-slide contest in his bedroom, filling the living room with discarded, half-eaten take-away chicken carcasses and/or starting our own single-malt cider distillery in the bathroom (all of which we've previously done when Ravey has bestowed us with this responsibility), we decided to get the wonderful Annabel Alpers (aka Bachelorette) to trek across the Tasman for the afternoon to perform a couple of songs.

With the beautifully smoggy Sydney skyline as the backdrop, a fridge full of Jim Beam 'n Cola cans (thanks again Rav!) and the sweet stench of bachelorism* in the air, it (somewhat unexpectedly) turned out to be the perfect environment for Bachelorette's engrossing, one-woman-band compositions.

Here's part one of her live session, featuring a performance of the track Sugarbug from her brilliant new self-titled album.

* See what we did there? Yeah. Ok. And that's more of a reference to Ravioli Conquests than any odors from the lovely Miss Bach Bach. Obvs.

PoA Live is a new limb to the already awkwardly disproportional being that is Mr and/or Mrs Polaroids Of Androids. Born from an elegant womb that is attached to the belief that videos are the equivalent of at least a trillion words, PoA Live will feature a bunch of our favourite artists performing in-the-flesh at various locations in-and-around Sydney (and The World). The performances will be filmed, edited and "spiced up" by a bunch of talented folks and then broadcasted right down into your computer/brain via the wondrous Global Information Network.

And a huge thank-you to all that have made this project possible...
