G FlipGUEST
Psycho Online and then I remember going to bed that night and I've documented all of this actually all of this story I'm telling you I'm not surprised yeah there's real life videos of me talking about it but I have a video of me going to sleep that night and being like holy shit I don't think I'm going to have to you know teach drum lessons anymore and I don't think I'm going to have to hand out pamphlets at Rod Laver Arena anymore like I think I'm I think I've made it even though it was just the first.

Kate LangbroekHOST
do this for the rest of my life.
Eddie McGuireGUEST
And, yeah, we've got to look at how we actually, you know, face the MCG.
Eddie McGuireGUEST
Do we start to face it back towards the tennis centre and the city? So Birrung Ma and then the connection through to Rod Laver Arena, which works so well for the NFL.
Eddie McGuireGUEST
And then we've got the park on the other side, of course, which, you know, there's nothing better than a park being a park.
Eddie McGuireGUEST
and people being able to sit there and, you know, work out how we get the infrastructure right so that we take into effect, you know, the local residents, but also the aspect.

So the last time he was here was in 20... was last year, in 2025, and he played at the Sydney Meyer Music Bowl, which I think is the perfect venue for him, but he's obviously gotten...

Super bigger since obviously Rain Me In went crazy.

I'd be breaking entry.
Jeremy AllenGUEST
But there's a stadium, so there's Rod Laver Arena and there's all that kind of language as well.
Jeremy AllenGUEST
The actual language of the musical, the design of the musical where we've kind of ended up is actually referenced from a lot of places that are kind of iconically australian that we have here as well so places like the n wong theater and um even the forum theater in melbourne a lot of kind of those places um have informed a lot of the design choices that are in the musical so we did take a few cues from like that kind of iconic australian musical architecture so that that kind of art deco style that you see with the n more um the featherton and adelaide that's kind of informed a lot of the design languages in the design itself without giving too much away
