»Guess what? Pratt are playing @ the Rat on the 15th of March. We haven't played there for AAAAAAAGES so you know we'll be trying extra hard.
»If you didn't know, pratt's songs Luke & untitled are kicking around on the net in mp3 form at www.mp3.com/pratt and as of november the 6th 2000 we were first AND last on the ballarat mp3 charts! That's right Luke is at #1 and untitled is at #60. how cool is that?
»On Sunday the 1st of September pratt headed into Lazy Willy's house [of The Lazy] to record their first demo, and what an experience it was. The recording is being mixed as we speak, so it should be around soon....maybe.
»pratt are headlining this thursday [the 21st of september] at the rat. we're playing with DR ROCK and some other bands...
»pratt are showing their competitive streak by appearing in two band competitions in the one week. Go and check them out @ the Rat on Sunday the 13th where they will battling Mondo Pest, The Turnarounds, Mr. Fenn Genn and Dr Rock - who have been surrounded by a veil of obscurity ever since their inception. We're also playing the Monash Campus Band Comp sometime in August but we don't know when yet.
»THE DATE: Thursday 29th of June. THE PLACE: The Bridgy. WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING: All right steady on, pratt is playing with the gorgeous & talented Kavorka. So come along for some fun.
»pratt are having ANOTHER all-ages show!! Despite the staff of the Bridge Mall Inn chasing us out last time with threats of intense sexual torture, we've scammed our way back in. So come down to the Bridgy on Sun June 18th at about 2pm. We're playing with No Idea & Cheese Excursion.

»Are you under 18? Are you sick of being violently abused and laughed at by your friends because you can't go to pubs to see pratt? Well you're in luck cause pratt will be doing an all ages show on Sunday June the 4th @ the Rat [that's the Bridge Mall Inn you crazy ignorant underagers] with Mondo Pest, Riff Randal and Bud Macintosh. So come along for a day of wholesome* family entertainment! [*The term 'wholesome family entertainment' does not apply to Widget from Mondo Pest.] |

»After a long wait, pratt are finally once again gracing the Rat with our presence. Come and check us out on Thursday May the 18th when we will be playing with Crossover and our good buddies, Mr FeenJeen.
»If you're not entirely exhausted after Thursday night, why not nip on down to Geelong to see us as we make our first appearance @ the Railway Hotel? We'll be ripping it up on stage with Mondo Pest and a couple of Geelong bands who cannot be named.
»automaton #2 is nearly finished. if you write anything vaguely funny or just sarcastic send in into the address @ the pratt related zines bit of this site and your work could appear in this countries greatest and most thought provoking publication.
»[automaton #1 [my zine] is now available @ Missing Link Records in Flinders Lane, Melbourne. So go and buy one tiger!]
»ok so we didn't actually play at Sonica, but gosh darn it if we weren't there in spirit. i actually attended Sonica for short intervals and managed to catch Wormhole and Mondo Pest who both played some damn fine tunes.
»All those of you who didn't see pratt at the Bridgy on the 25th of February should be killing yourselves right about now because they kicked some serious arse. Mondo Pest amused everyone with their Passion-Pop fueled antics and Mach Pelican were FUCKING AWESOME.
»Well, we've finally got a website up. This is
pretty dodgy so hopefully soon we'll have something better up,
but for now have a look around. »Hopefully there will be a pratt demo of some
kind out there soon. We don't know exactly when we will record it
but we can assure you that it will be worth the wait. »We played at the Rat on Thursday the 20th of
January with Ruteger & Mondo Pest and let me tell you it was
a fuckin rolls royce of a night. Topnovil were hanging around
Ballarat so they got up and did a short set which went well
despite them being really pissed. Ruteger got a pretty lukewarm
response from the Rat crowd but once Mondo hit the stage it was
all good. Danny got up on stage and blew everybody away as he did
his own rendition of 'Blitzkreig Bop' with the Mondo boys and we
got a hundred bucks for the gig! » If you want to see the poster from when we
played at the Mondo Pest CD launch on the 18th of November with
Mondo Pest, No Idea and Crossover, click here. If you don't, get over it. » My zine is finally finished! It's called
'automaton' and if you want a copy [which you do] have a look at
the pratt related
zine section of this site. Danny's zine
'Desperate & Dateless' should be out soon as Widget gets off
his arse and writes his bit for it. pratt pretend to be
rock-stars.
