About Me

WHO IS THIS "DARKSIDE"?
Standup comedian (so I'm often suspected of funny business), actor (so whatever you see or hear about me, that's probably just me pretending to be something I'm not), writer (but my being a self-indulgent twat is probably already obvious), radio identity ('cos I have the face for it), improvisor (nah, I'm just making that up!), comedy trivia host ('cos I can be about as trivial as they get), singer/songwriter (of probably some of the most poor taste, off-colour, grossly innappropriate and unnecessarily dirty lyrics in the history of iambic pentameter put to music - now those were GREAT times!).
Like they say... sometimes it's what you do... sometimes it's who you are.

STOP THE PRESS: SWIFT AND SHIFT COURIERS ROCKS!!!
The DarkSide returns to TV: Crashing onto our telly screens on Monday the 27th October in the year of our dark lord, 2008 – this provocative, sexy, emotional, sexy, controversial, sexy, violent, sexy, avant garde, sexy violent, sexy, violent, sexy, sexy new comedy hits our screens! Only slightly detracting from the sexiness is the fact that I’ll be appearing in most of the episodes. For fans of the runaway TV hit “Fat Pizza”, it’s exactly the same only totally different but more so! Confused? Anchovy! Er … I mean Excellent!
So anyway, I’m sure we’ll all have our televisual apparatus set to SBS on Monday 27th of October… hey, who am I kidding? As if anyone in Australia watches any other channel anyway! Nine episodes of hilarity that will split your sides, so keep the staple gun handy, and refresh the gaffer tape supplies. It possesses a cast so huge that it makes “Spartacus” look like a viral ad (for all you I.T. types out there on the Interweb) or a Neighbourhood Watch meeting (for Grandma, who hasn’t really grasped the I.T. revolution yet). Just watch the advert below, and you’ll be swept away in the siren song of no-holds-barred holding and barring! I’m in the last six episodes… please feel free to hate my character… I’m used to it… after all, I’ve been to Queensland…

DID YOU REALLY SAY “DOLPHIN JUICE”?!?
No, you didn't, did you? But it's still something I've done in the past... a comedy group I co-founded with some great people back in 2003... in that time we made numerous forays into various media and medium, though we seemed to do best with medium-size media. I was a performer and a writer for our sketch comedy CD "Cancun Tsunami", our "Dolphin Juice" sketch show on TV, the avant-garde news-satire program "That Was The News", and I even did a two-year stint anchoring a comedy show at Triple M. We toured around as well, performing live to anyone who would sit still long enough to watch. Anyway, that's all kind of passed on by now, but you can still catch up with the great work of alot of the Dolphins - checkout in my "Friends" section the links to Judas, Lexi Kelly, Pogman, Dinsdale, Garfield, Bernie, Odie, the lovely Amber, and of course the rockin' "Genuine Hoots of Joy"... all genuinely wonderful, twisted people!

SCREAMING… AND WET… AND LOVING IT!
In the heyday, I was the frontman of a couple of big time fun groups including "Screaming Wet Jesus" - an impro troup making people laugh all up and down the coast. Big props go out to my homies Damon and Tommy D - couple of the most enigmatically talented wingmen an unrehearsed improvisor could have! Also, I did the music thang with my longest-term friend in the world and a frighteningly gifted muso by the name of Smooth Jaymz... together we were "Screaming Wet Santa", and in some way... we still are! It's true. I've spent most of this decade both screaming and wet!
