If you want to see some of my work, check out the 'downloads'
section.
The rest of those tabs above are pretty self-explanatory. Except
for the 'about' section. I don't know why
the guy put that one there. I kinda thought that's what the 'bio'
section was for... Anyway, I just put interviews and stuff in
there.
Also - feel free to contact me regarding
any gigs both here or overseas or outerspace. Although, I will
warn you that I'm not very welcome on Jupiter anymore after I made
a joke about their planet-leader's large head.
It's so
crazy that you can be inside this entity for an entire month
that seems to go forever. This tornado of fully sick
comics, and parties, and late-night shows, and paranoia, and
good / bad reviews, and ticket sales stress, and awards,
and disappointments, and then you finally come home
and it all just seems like a distant memory,
and that everyone else has hardly even noticed you
were gone.
I won the MICF
Best Newcomer award
for my show Being
Black n Chicken n Shit
. Myself and Ronny Chieng actually tied-won. The past
winners of that award have received a return trip to the
UK. Because me and Ronny both won, I hope they don't just
split the prize and give us two one way tickets. If that
happens, I'll be a touch suspicious that maybe this was all
just an elaborate scheme by the government to get us
deported. A lot of other stuff has happened since my
computer broke and I haven't been able to update this page,
but it all escapes me right now. The only thing that I can
really think about right now is the little piece of chicken
sandwich caught between two of my back teeth. This is a job
for "Toothpick Man", the world's least-respected superhero.
I'd respect him right now though. Very much.
Sydney Comedy
Festival
is upon us and it's going to be a lot of fun
too. Anthony Salame and I are going to be hosting the first
official Sydney Comedy Festival Block Party which is going to
be so dope that it won't be able to get through
customs. Dinnertime Duke is even going to come down to bust
out a Disco-Matt set with me. LIKE A BOSS.
Tix to my solo show - The Voyager Record -
are available HERE.
Then I'm on the road for two
weeks in QLD for MICF Roadshow... Damn I love Roadshow.
I'm also touring Singapore & Hong Kong in July. That'll be sweet. I
am going to eat a whole country. I haven't decided which one
yet.
Herman's w/ TDS & Dinnertime's
Sydney performance debut.
Apologies for not updating recently. My computer died.
Sucks, bro.
I tried to get all technical with it. Instead of doing the right
thing and just taking it in for repair, I acted like a 1970's dad
and tried to fix it myself even though I don't know anything about
computers.
It turns out, if you flash your computer with the wrong BIOS, you
get a dead computer.
Cereal, bro.
Now - in some exciting news, I will be performing a Disco-Matt MC
show at Herman's Bar at Uni of Sydney this Friday, 4th Nov 2011.
7pm. It's Free. And it will be so sick you'll want to study
medicine just to cure yourself.
That's. how. sick. it's. gonna. be. cereal.
Werrrrrrrrrd.

Bullets & Bearsuits...
It's Sydney Fringe Festival time, and I am pumped like a Reebok.
My show is on sale and looking good, so get on board like a
passenger at the ferry terminal.
I go to Perth on Friday for Rottofest too. It will be more awesome
than a....
OK, I can't think of any more similes.... like an english major
with memory loss.
BOOM!
Keep it real, homies.

Pete Smoke...
What is up, everybodz?!
I think I offended some people on twitter the other day. That is
not good.
I'm currently trying to think of jokes for my upcoming
Sydney
Fringe Festival show. Whenever I complain about 'having to do
work' to my girlfriend, she never really shows much sympathy, but
then again, I think it's because most of the 'work' I need to do
can actually be done while lying in my bed.
I keep having flashbacks to times in Brisbane. I miss that place a
lot sometimes. For some reason, I quite often long to be aimlessly
walking around
Indooroopilly Shopping Town.
Is that normal?
I think I'm going to be doing some gigs around there in the first
week of October, so stay tuned.
Thanks to everyone who showed support after
Can of Worms. Hope
you all liked it. In case you missed it, you can case you missed
it, you can check out the whole episode in the
Downloads
secion.
Also - guys - I just finished making my latest Disco-Matt MC
offering called "Pete Smoke" and I'd love it if you could have a
listen, and then share it with every single person that lives in
India and China. If we can get it to them, then we've covered most
of the world, and I'll be rich, and I'll give you some.
You can listen to it
by clicking on the pic below, or on the left under my picture.
You should download it and play it in your car while you do laps
of Kings Cross - like a BOSS.
No you shouldn't.
Also - tickets for my Sydney Fringe Festival show are on sale, so
don't forget to grab one! They're only $10. Just click
HERE and then follow the links.
That is all for now.
Werd.

Can of Worms...
I think I'm going to be on Can of Worms next week. I
sincerely hope I don't say something stupid.
I probably will.
Everything will be going fine, and then the word 'spaz' will slip
out.
Yikes.
Also - in good news,
The Future Machine is
going to the International TV
Festival in LA. I'm just glad because now I finally have
something to tell the guys serving me at the soup van tonight.
Cereal.
p.s. I was joking about the 'spaz' thing so don't bother getting
all MAC on me. I'm full PC, yo. Cereal.

State of Origin...
If QLD don't win State of Origin tomorrow, I'm going to glass
myself.
Cereal.
I'm watching an ad at the moment that contains a couple, and like
in every single ad, the girl is way better looking than her
slightly overweight and dopey boyfriend. I always find this funny.
Guys always imagine that they can hit above their weight, and
girls always see their boyfriend as an overweight and helpless
dope.
Oh god.
Am I a slightly overweight dope??
I have moved into an apartment recently, and every now and then,
myself and the old lady across the road spot each other
through the windows. It's usually quite awkward. Especially
because neither of us are wearing pants.
Can you please follow me on Twitter?
Cheers.
It's @mattokine. Or just click on the
button at the top of this page.
Hey, I'm doing a show at the
Sydney Fringe Festival
2011. It's going to be called "Bullets
& Bearsuits", and I can assure you that it'll be so fully sick
that you'll be octo-dropping panadols for a week. Check it out
HERE.
Cereal, bro.
Also, I just got a "HIGHLY
COMMENDED" in the Urban category at the
Queensland Music Awards 2011 for a song I wrote last year.
It's called "The End". You can listen to it below. Or listen to
all my tracks at
The
Boilermakers.
I went to the dentist today. Dentists really need to update
the artwork in their waiting rooms. All they ever seem to have is
pictures of rotting teeth. That sucks. Much like the owners of
'said' teeth. I'm not asking for much. Just something a bit more
aesthetically pleasing. It can still be dental related. How about
a picture of the Mona Lisa with some brand new shiny braces. Or a
bowl of fruit with an old man's dentures stuck in it?
Whatever.
I have two shows coming up that are going to be
Fully.
Sick.
Bro.
Show One:Disco-Matt
is supporting Evil Eddie at
the Step Inn in
Brisbane this Friday night (17th June, 2011). Tix are only $15
on the door. I'm on stage at 8:30pm. If you're late, I'll smash ya.
Dinnertime Duke is currently accepting Groupie applications. GOOD
LOOKS NOT REQUIRED.
Smang.
Show Two: On
the 2nd July I will be doing a replay of my Sydney Comedy Festival
show, "Being Black N Chicken N Shit" at the
Sydney Comedy Store.
Tickets are available
HERE. You should come along.
