Re: [powderworks] Who's that with Peter Garrett?

sorry people,

second time in 4 days, sent an email to the whole list...

I can only plead exhaustion, flatness, very sore throat & general disorientation after being back at uni & having to read a lot, after three totally Oils oriented days. The whole thing was amazing & s for Sound relief I had no idea so many people liked the Oils, let alone knew so many words! It was amazing & a blessed relief after being surrounded earlier in the day by incredibly hystercial Bliss'n'Eso fans who shouted 'wwweee lloovvvvvee yoooooooo tooooo' every time the band said they loved everyone.Gggrrrr

Canberra was sensational, saw so many people I hadn't seen since Manly & Waveaid & just had a blast the whole time. The feeling is one you only get when you're with huge amounts of people that all share your wholehearted appreciation for something, in this case, 5 blokes who when they get together, just make sheer magic happen.

I like the Backsliders, the Ghosties, the Family Dog, not sure about the Angry Tradesmen, am happy the ALP got in, but the Oils-well they just take the cake. I've been into them since I was 13 & now at 36, am still as enthusiastic as when they sucked me in seeing them on the telly playing 'Only the Strong' on Oils on the Water. Taking my son to see them was a dream I thought would never happen & now it has. For all of that, I am one happy lady.

hello hello,

You'll be back home when you get this & no doubt, severely jetlagged...

How bloody marvellous was the whole three days!!!!!!! I can't believe every gig went off so well & my son enjoyed seeing them at the 'G & now wishes he'd come to Canberra. Hmmm, maybe next time (fingers tightly crossed).

Anyway Lesley, here's you & Pete & Steve. Enjoy & it was great meeting you

ps. also attached a pic Jane took of y'all in profile. Cheers, Jo.

Hi

My Australian mobile number (I was last here on holiday so recently it's still active..) is 0424 664 799. I'll be in Canberra from around 1pm on Thursday, probably spending the afternoon either lurking in a coffee shop with a book or, um, sleeping. Jet lag is a bitch!

Hey,

Who's actually coming in from O/S? Maybe we can get a list of names and the locals can know who to look out for?

So far:
Lesley J[?], from UK
Justin Fisher, AU expat from Thailand
... ?

Cheers
