James Bucknell is Guest DJ on Spin Cycle on 2SER today from 3-4PM Sydney time.

I've been slow putting up pictures from Do Your Thing. My camera was locked away for most of the night so here are a few, mostly from around 3 AM (with a few from earlier on when I handed my camera to a friend.) Check out this flickr set and more to come.

A million thanks to everyone who came out to the Boomalli Gallery for Do Your Thing. It was an amazing night. Around 300 people came together which is incredible.

I'll post some pics here soon.

There's always something on the go and we'd love to see you all again.
