Tim Rogers & Friends bring you ‘Liquid Nights In Bohemia Heights’

Download press kit

Join Tim Rogers as the louche DJ of the spectral radio show ‘Liquid Nights In Bohemia Heights’.

A brand-new live show that brings Tim’s Friday afternoon Liquid Lunch radio programme out of the Double J studios and onto the stage. Brimming with live music, interviews and musings from those across the cultural spectrum, it promises to be a thinking person’s theatre and comedy all rolled into one. So... Is it Parkinson?  A prairie Home Companion? Maybe Jules Holland? Possibly even the Goon Show?  And will the audience be right in the thick of it all?  Hopefully all of the above.

Together with the stentorian tones of broadcasting legend, Jonnie Von Goes and live Foley work delivered by Tony Award nominated sound designer, Russell Goldsmith, Tim will roll out the barrel in the finest apparel.

With a live band, special guest interviews, a pocket radio drama, a live quiz, questionable local sponsors, Poem of the Week, a live call of Western Highlands Cricket Final (now in it's 34th week), philosophical quandaries, audience participation and the continuing hooey and hoopla within the fabled borders of Bohemia Heights.

And of course, music. Sweet, sweet, music.

Come and be part of the radio show you love on Double J, as live as it gets!

* The Radio show ‘Liquid Nights In Bohemia Heights’ is Tim Rogers’ Liquid Lunch brought to the stage, in all its shambolic analogue glory.

* The studio - The program is a throw back in time... It’s totally analogue, old microphones, box back suits, ancient advertorial carts, Fluro lighting, Bakelite telephones and a turntable….

* The HostTim is the ego driven late-late night DJ of this iconic radio program who communes with guests, call ins, and executes a check list of weekly ‘spots’ and ‘segments’.

* The sidekicks - Boisterous interjections by legendary community broadcaster Jonnie Von Goes who cuts a mysterious figure throughout with his resonant baritone adding ballast to proceedings. Live action Foley and sound effects by Tony Award Nominated Sound Designer Russell Goldsmith.  

* The guests - Musicians, artists, writers, sport stars, comedians, and self-appointed celebrities… This show will have it all!

* The format - Live music performances, interviews, News Flashes, The Quiz, Drama of The Week, Agony Uncle, The Philosophers Corner, Long time Listeners and First Time Callers and so, so much more.

* The live audience - will be very much included and encouraged to participate in these 90 minutes of madness.

Join Tim and his cohorts as they steal 90 minutes of your time to sprinkle the magic and mayhem of old-time radio!
