Does anyone know why Mark Murphy is not playing in Brisbane? Disappointing, lots of us would have gone. Thanks for the review "Not Mark Fitzgibbon"

Wally Wrteman is the Tour Manager why don't you ring him and ask him, maybe not too late to arrange one if enough interest: They are staying at the Grand Hyatt in Melbourne or ring Adrian Jackson at the festival and get Wally's mobile number maybe.
He's a charming man, very polite and extremely efficient.

Yeah right, AJ! Hey, I didn't see you at Ormond Hall at either of the gigs. They were both great in different ways, he is such an amazing performer, totally unique. I filmed his workshop at Monash University- he made Alison Wedding lie on the floor (yep I have that on film), and he got another well known vocalist quite teary with emotion in one song. Neither of them seemed to mind! He is really a fabulous teacher and an excellent communicator. Each student sounded noticably better after a few tips from the wonderful Mr Murphy. I wish he would stay here longer, but on his own, please! Great festival AJ, well done, I feel a bit sad it is all over now. Obviously Mr Jerry Koster is sad too as he was playing Abba covers on his show today. It must be End-of-MIJF-Syndrome. Quite common among broadcasters I believe, the main sympton is that they go gaga and play weird stuff on the radio. Hmm.. wonder if that will prompt him to post.  Hey btw have you got a crush on HB, JK or what?  (heh heh heh) |

I've frequently BEGGED Gerry to lend me his Abba boxed set, but he won't part with it - even for a few days or hours. He makes love to it. On a daily basis.

Jerry Koster yeah man, that Dutch cat had a thing for Agnetha man, he inspired us to write Dancing Queen too as we saw him dancing down in the aisles at so many of our gigs and we thought he resembled like Freddie Mercury. Once, I believe it was him, he threw a pair of his boxers at Agnetha but it was Bjorn who caught them between his teeth. We all laughed about it after the show becuase, he is very clean and a very nice man even if he does get a little bit excited from time to time.

Hey we did a cover of one of their songs "Some Velvet Morning" way back in the 80s man, so that proves they are cool.
Roland: "Some velvet morning when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up your gate"
Lydia: "Flowers blooming on a hill etc."
Do you think was Lee/Roland wrestling with their sexuality? It was a 12 inch single (no punt intended) speaking of 12 inches, is it true about Wally and that film?
