Gaye & I trust you all had a great Chrissy & top New Year’s Eve.
The New
year starts slowly as most of Canberra is out of town. But, for those
stalwarts amongst us, there is still a fine, slightly truncated, selection of
gigs goin’ on.
Next weekend, don’t forget the Thredbo Blues Festival (SEE THE PROGRAM: http://www.thredboblues.net.au/ThredboBlues08-
ProgV5.pdf). Lotsa fun, bop & friends to enjoy it all with. Gaye
& I will see you all there. New Year Cheers Geof and Gaye
