It's one thing to enjoy music, it's quite something else to experience a live music performance.
This week Alex and Taryn have got 2 hours of artists touring or appearing in this new and fresh year at a venue near you.
So you've no excuse to stop on the sofa. Get out amongst it and choose your poison, this week, on Three Chords and the Truth. JOY 94.9 joy.org.au Sunday 2-4pm
Strings attached
We are getting out our geeeeetars, and playin' it up. Time for three chords and then three more as we spend Sunday afternoon enjoying some amazing musicianship.
We will have up and coming young Australian guitarist Joe Robinson on the show, and he'll play live in the studio.
Katie is in the driving seat, and Alex is holding the map. So who knows where we'll get to!
But we'll set out from JOY 94.9 - joy.org.au - 2pm Sunday. Grab a plectrum, come along.
Mosicians
It's Movember, so we are playing an hour of mosicians.
Twirl your mo round your little finger, store your lunch in it for later, or plait it nice. Whatever you like doing with your mo, do it while sampling HoMosexual sounds from MoBros like Little Richard n Freddy Mercury.
It will be superficial, it will be suprafacial. And if it's anything like our other shows, it will be super farcical.
Join Andy and Alex 2-4pm Sunday Joy 94.9
PS Momentous Mo-bro guest Jordie Lane will be joining us live in the studio.

New Australians
No, we haven't stalked a citizenship ceremony.

This Sunday 1-3pm Joy 94.9 with Andy and Alex

A prodigal son returns
He may be an old JOY hack, but he sure is fabulous too. Adam Q will be joining Andy Mack this Sunday. Expect 3 Chords & the Truth.
Is tatt right?
What do Stephen Gately and Marc Almond have in common with Tom Waits and Keith Urban? Believe it or not, it's tatts! And don't get me started on the lesbians!
Check out Three Chords and the Tatts, where we expose singers tatts, this Sunday 1pm on Joy 94.9
For the record, one has a map of Easter Island and another a Tasmanian Devil, but if you want to find out who has what, you'll have to tune in.
Beauty & talent in one package!
Taswegian singer-songwriter Monique Brumby returns to 3 Chords - she co-hosted an episode with Andy about 6 years ago. 3 Chords & the Truth - Sundays 1pm - 3pm.
Market economy musicians
Artist or industrialist? What becomes of music competition winners and, with the imminent arrival of 'The Voice', should we be using our voices to welcome this American show or tell it to sing sweet Dixie all the way home?
In the red corner: Katie, Adam Lambert's biggest fan.
In the blue corner: Alex, would rather set his hair on fire than pay Kyle Sandilands wages.
Should be an interesting show. 1pm Sunday Joy 94.9

2012, and the end is nigh
Yes, it's the end of the world. Between Nostradamus, the Mayans and the Disclosure Project, we're up shit creek without a paddle. And the signs of the Apocalypse keep coming. Earthquakes, Storms, Plagues and now the return of Alex to Three Chords and the Truth.
So fiddle while Rome burns, listening to Three Chords Sunday 1pm. We'll kick of with an hour of the end, and if we're still around (the Mayans reckon we are safe till 21 Dec.), we'll have an hour of simply the best gutsy, poetic music you'll find anywhere.

Newbies
Sometimes we play plenty of old stuff. This week Andy & Taryn play only new songs in the first hour. Then who knows for the second hour? Sundays 1pm-3pm.
Then next week it's The Return of Alexander with the theme Apocalypse wow.

Music by curvy people
Two of the big television shows on TV at the moment are about larger people trying to lose weight. How many overweight newsreaders, weather people, TV hosts, romantic leads in TV shows, are there? Not a great deal. Why didn't Adele get a contract with a major record company? Would she have got a contract at all in America? Jenny & Andy want to celebrate musically-talented curvy ladies & gents. Living large is not a crime.
From Mr A to Lady Z
This week 3 Chords is going alphabetical - all the way from Mr A to Lady Z - hosted by Mr A (Andy) and Lady Z (Zoe). Hopefully we'll get through all 26 songs/letters in the 2 hours.
Aussie Aussie Aussie!
It's an All-Australian hour on Three Chords and the Truth this Sunday. Yes, we'll be donning our speedos and cracking a tinnie in the studio, as we play some awesome Aussie artists for you.
Oi Oi Oi.
Join us 1pm Sunday 29 Joy 94.9

SURPRISE !!!!!
This week's hosts are: Andy (the old hack - you know him) and Katie (themer-twitterer-Lambertarian - do we need to say more?). And the theme for music in the first hour is a surprise (that's right - we haven't decided yet). However it goes without saying that we will have fantastic laid back rootsy music and fun stories (hear about the disturbing large block party on this week at Andy's apartment).
Battle of the sexes
Yes, it's that old chestnut - boys v girls. Taryn will be spinning the man songs and Andy languishing with the ladies. The first catfight for the new year.
