We’ve been working hard with the amazing Maria Tran to put together the next Adelaide Flashmob event.

She will be embarking on her Quest for Jackie Chan shortly, and as part of it, she’ll be heading to little old Adelaide. So, we thought Jackie Chan + Flashmob = Awesomeness, and what has resulted will be a special Jackie-Chan-flavoured flashmob event.

We have instructions up on our Facebook event page, but if you’re not on Facebook, feel free to email us at adelflashmob@hotmail.com for more details.

This is going to be a great opportunity for the Adelaide Flashmob to get a bit of national coverage and some awesome video footage. It’s also going to be really fantastic supporting some of Australia’s upcoming talent, and also send a message to the one and only JACKIE CHAN!!

Chaz Harris has discovered the joys of flas mobs and is telling readers of Stuff.co.nz all about it. My favourite quote from the article is this:

What did I learn from watching all of these wonderful videos? That random acts of awesomeness like this make the world a better place and just for those few minutes, it doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from, how much you earn, who you love or what colour your skin is – it’s people working together as one. At least to me, it’s hope on film.

What a great description of what flashmobbing is all about. Here at Adelaide Flashmob, we’re all about making life in Adelaide that little bit more exciting – and random acts of awesomeness

Hey, there are going to be a couple of really great events coming up in the next couple of months.

First up, we’ll be teaming with Maria Tran as part of her Quest for Jackie Chan documentary in September, and secondly we’ll be doing a very special Burst Into Song and Dance in late October.

If you want to find out more about either events, head over to our Facebook page to find more, or send us an email at adelflashmob@hotmail.com

Hey! So at the last flashmob, one of the people we sang happy birthday was Suresh Meyer, the drummer from the Sundance Kids. Also, Claire from Nova 919 happened to witness some of what we were up to aswell. So, together they had a good chat about what happened last Friday night!

Thanks to the person who spotted Suresh in the first place!

Pretty groovey

No Pants 2k9 Adelaide

When: Saturday January 10th 2009

Time: 12:30pm – 2pm

Where: Train leaving Adelaide Train Station (and returning)

smokey and the bandit part 3 dvd

This is the 2nd year running this in Adelaide. Last year was great fun and we hope to get a bigger turnout for more fun this year.

The idea is simple:

1. Ride the train with pants
2. Take pants off during the trip (with boxers/briefs underneath)
3. Pretend you don’t know the other pantsless riders and pretend that wearing no pants on the train is a perfectly normal thing to be doing

Now, if you’re thinking that theres no way you’re going to ride the train pantsless consider this… Improv Everywhere run this event every year in New York and last time they managed to get 900 people, thats right NINE HUNDRED, to go pantsless and for them its the middle of winter. In the Aussie summer going pantsless is actually more comfortable than wearing pants.

Come and join us, do something unusual, be part of the ultimate inside joke and give the prudes of Adelaide something to gasp at.
