DJ Hell of a Hat (Ska Trek)

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

There are some who call me... Tim, and I'm an announcer at Brisbane's best and most alternative radio station, 4zzzfm, where I present Ska-trek(Mon 8-10pm), one of Australia's best and longest running ska shows. Each week we bring to the airwaves of Brisbane a selection of the best new ska, as well as delving into ska's sordid history.

As you've probably guessed, I am a serious lover of the fine skankin' tunes, and am focussed on supporting and helping to grow the ska scene and live music scene in general in Brisbane/Australia in whatever way I can. If you're in a band (especially a ska band) and would like to send me anything - Demos/CD's/merchandise/bribes/etc. send it to : Tim Woollams PO Box 5623 West End, Brisbane QLD 4101.

Some stuff I've been involved in:This is a Videoclip for the Bad Moon Company song, "Better Off Dead" which I directed, filmed and editted. Thanks to everyone involved, it was a rad fun day. Hopefully the Bad Moon Boys will go on to some bigger and better projects. I don't think we've seen the last of them yet.Here is a clip i shot and editted of Brigitte Handley and the Dark Shadows' song Stand Off. Again, this way awesome fun to make. I'd love to do more of this stuff. Here is local band Suspect Seven, performing Evil Skank at their Final show at Bar 388 in Fortitude Valley on Halloween 2008.This is New Zealand Band Where's Gary's Duvet. They are the awesome. Watch this video and you will know that this is a statement of FACT.
Feel free to check out the rest of my youtube videos , they're occasionally awesome!

Also, check out my show playlists, I don't intend to blog them because I think that the appropriate place for show playlists is the zed website, My Playlists! So Go There! (they're not always perfectly up to date, but I'll do my best). You can also find my old playlists from "the Hell of a Hat Show" by searching for "hell of a hat"


My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Joel Veitch, Christian Jacobs (the MCBC's alter-ego), Dicky Barrett, Buster Bloodvessel, Chris Murray, Bucket, and If these names something to you, then probably you as well.
