Our good friend rob willis is coming over from australia for the festival, a link to his child migrants project can be found at http://forgottenaustralianshistory.gov.au/oral_histories.html rob is performing at the national folk festival in canberra this easter producing a folk documentary 'We Gotta Get out of this Place' looking at the popular songs of the era – Big Yellow Taxi, Peace Train – the American anti Vietnam war songs - asking the question were they seen as songs with a message or just a good song by Cat Stevens? we look forward to welcoming him to the festival all the best John
