‘Party of the year’ is a phrase this young Jester keeps hearing in hushed tones coming from lonesome Brunswick alleyways. This is not paranoia or schizophrenia, this is real. What is this ‘party’ they speak of? Where does one find a party? What is a party? Who are you? We Make Stuff Good and Court Jester present the opening party to end all opening parties, well I guess that would be a closing party. This is definitely an opening party!

Those are not just singular words lumped together to form incoherent dribble. They are words that represent what you have to look forward to. A Jesters and Cats theme party so dress up for reduced entry cost. A one day festival extravaganza! The day kicks off at 7 in the morning for mouth watering goodness that hasn’t been experienced in Brunswick since the 60’s and 70’s when the Polaks and the Russians moved out.

From around lunch time the live painting will start with around 20 to 25 of Melbourne’s most influential street and graffiti artists will turn a blank wall into a visual orgasm that refuses to deal with contraception. The art auction commences at 6pm and finishes at 8pm with the poignant musings of Crazy Elf and Ben Pobjie to take you through to a night of rabid mayhem. There will be a raffle where you could win a Maxcat Jester original t-shirt and other assorted goodies. Look forward to catching up with all of you at Court Jester. This is going to be big.

About The Author: Uncle David Jester

It all started in the summer of 1984. A man and his wife went swimming. He looked at her, she gazed right back at him. Was it love? Was it lust? Was it indigestion? Those questions are irrelevant because that was the magical summer when the seed of the crusty ol' jester beast was planted. From then on, things seemed to favour the strange. Jester was discovered by royalty on horseback. They took his birth name seriously. A little more serious than it was intended. Then in a half gallop of the horses' trotter, Jester was gone. Vanished. Never to been seen again... or for a least a while. Those nasty, cretinous royals kept the confused young Jester locked away in a hepatitis laced dungeon, never to see the light. Never to see flesh besides his own!! Jester was educated though. He had ploughed though 2 years of formal education. So he manipulated a pen and notepad into his life. He wrote. He wrote about things he knew nothing about. Playing in fields, shaking hands with amputees, driving a pogo stick across state lines and food. Oh how he longed for different flavours, textures, smells, pops, crackles, explosions, melt downs and food fights. The only food they served him was left over milk that was on the edge and pig shit. it tasted bad. Worse than it sounds One day he escaped. It is all explained with style at www.courtjestercafe.com.au. Jester has kept his passion for food and writing till this very day and he brings it to you on the greatest website the world has to offer, WMSG. Besides the occasional peasant flashback, Jester is doing just fine... He hopes you enjoy his writing among other things of beauty on this site. Happy reading!
