HG — aka Greig Pickhaver — and Roy (John Doyle) will present the legendary Festival of the Boot on ABC Newsradio calling the AFL grand final on September 28 and the NRL decider on October 6. As always, the Festival of the Boot has a theme and fittingly this year’s will be titled ‘‘A Shot in the Arm’’. Caulfield Cup Carnival to rock AUSTRALIAN rock acts Birds of Tokyo and The Living End will perform post-race at the Caulfield Cup Carnival. Birds of Tokyo will entertain crowds after the Caulfield Guineas on October 12 in Melbourne, while The Living End will follow at the Caulfield Cup a week later. March Fires, Birds of Tokyo’s fourth album, has debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA album chart. The band will also entertain crowds at this month’s AFL grand final. Aiming for glory MELBOURNE: Neil Finn explores the euphoria and the tough times involved in reaching for lofty heights on his third solo album. Audiences at this sum- mer’s The Falls Music & Arts Festival will get a taste of some songs from the Crowded House frontman’s new solo offering, Dizzy Heights, which is due for re- lease in February. ‘‘I’m looking forward to the new phase, the new me,’’ Finn says from Auckland. Finn, 55, says reaching for the impossible is a recur- rent theme on the album. Finn worked with Ameri- can producer Dave Frid- mann, who has produced for Mercury Rev and The Flam- ing Lips, and his two sons and wife Sharon also played on the record. Recently Finn collabor- ated with Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder to record an acoustic version of Throw Your Arms Around Me for the Hunters & Collectors tribute album. Finn will make his debut Falls appearance this year. The Falls Music & Arts Festi- val will be held on the following dates: December 28 to January 1 — Lorne, Victoria (sold out), Dec- ember 29 to January 1 — Marion Bay, Tasmania, December 31 to January 3 — Byron Bay NSW Miranda Kerr strides the runway during the 2011 Victoria’s Secret show in New York Miranda has wings clipped SYDNEY: Miranda Kerr is no longer an angel; a Victoria’s Secret show angel, that is. The Australian model has been noticeably left out of this year’s line-up for the annual lingerie show, accord- ing to Vogue.co.uk. Kerr has been excluded from the list, which includes some of the label’s stable- mates: Adriana Lima, Ales- sandra Ambrosio, Lily Ald- ridge, Candice Swanepoel, Lindsay Ellingson, Karlie Kloss, Doutzen Kroes and Behati Prinsloo. Aside from her 2010 hiatus when she was pregnant with son Flynn, it’s the first time the Aussie model has been left out of the show since being announced as the first Australian Victoria’s Secret angel in 2007. Earlier in 2013, reports in the US suggested Kerr had been dumped by the lingerie stable. However, the rumours led Victoria’s Secret presid- ent Ed Razek to publicly deny the model’s dumping. He said Kerr had agreed to a personal invitation to walk the runway in this year’s fa- shion show. ‘‘While her international commitments have kept her away from us more than we’d like over the past few years, she will always be an Angel to me,’’ Mr Razek said in a statement in April. The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is on December 10. HIV cripples porn industry THE US porn industry has been rocked by news a fourth adult movie star has tested positive for HIV. Filming ground to a halt last month when officials at the industry’s trade body, the Free Speech Coalition, issued a moratorium on shooting after actress Cameron Bay learned she had contracted the disease. Now it has emerged another temporary suspension was ordered last Friday after three more adult actors tested positive for the virus. Wonderland faces rating woes BRISBANE: Network Ten’s new Australian drama series Wonderland is in rat- ings freefall, after another mediocre placing on Wed- nesday night. Ten is heavily committed to the series, having bought 22 episodes off the shelf. But Wonderland, which is set in a Sydney beachside unit block and stars Brooke Satchwell and Michael Dor- man, has seemingly failed to grip viewers. It finished 17th on the Oz- TAM’s overnight ratings on Wednesday, attracting just 607,000 viewers. That was two spots behind the Nine Network’s 5.30pm quiz show Hot Seat. Wonder- land was 240,000 viewers shy of a repeat of the comedy panel show QI on the ABC. Ten has tried desperately to promote Wonderland, and on Saturday night the net- work even repeated the first three episodes on one of its subsidiary channels. But the back-to-back Wonderland episodes that screened on election night failed to rate in the top 100 shows for the evening. Miley’s raw tears LOS ANGELES: Miley Cyrus says making the nude video for her new single was an emotional experience. The 20-year-old singer strips down for the visual accompaniment to her track Wrecking Ball and even sheds a tear during it. Despite the former Han- nah Montana star being a fa- mous actress, she insists the recording process was genu- inely tough for her. ‘‘It was a lot harder to do the video than it was to re- cord the song. It was much more of an emotional exper- ience,’’ she said. ‘‘I think the video is much more. If people get past the point I make, and you actu- ally look at me, you can tell I look more broken than even the song sounds. ‘‘The song is a pop ballad that everyone can relate to. Everyone has felt that feel- ing at some point.’’ The ex-Disney star can be seen straddling a wrecking ball and licking a sledge- hammer in the Terry Richardson-directed clip. The final cut drummed up a record-breaking 19.3 mill- ion views on Vevo in only one day but Cyrus would like fans to get past the fact that she is naked in it. Seekers to resume stalled tour SYDNEY: The Seekers will resume their Golden Jubilee Tour following Judith Dur- ham’s sudden illness in May. Durham suffered a cer- ebral haemorrhage 10 shows into the tour in May and spent three months recover- ing in a Melbourne hospital. Yesterday, Judith Dur- ham, Keith Potger, Athol Guy and Bruce Woodley came together to announce the tour will recommence in Perth in November, with UK dates to follow in 2014. Australian dates for The Seekers are: November 2 & 3, Riverside Theatre, Perth November 7, 8 and 28, Ha- mer Hall, Melbourne November 11 & 12, AEC Theatre, Adelaide November 15, State Thea- tre, Sydney November 19, Entertain- ment Centre, Wollongong November 23, Derwent En- tertainment Centre, Hobart November 25, Princess Theatre, Launceston December 2, Empire Thea- tre, Toowoomba December 4, Convention Centre, Brisbane
