John Warner is very proud that he included Newell Highway, & everyone who went said it was a fantastic evening.

I'm looking forward to hearing the concert next Tuesday.

by-the-by, Richard Tognetti is the current custodian of a $3million violin that was referred to here (Mudcat) a few months ago when a zealous Australian Customs officer said the ACO would have to de-string their violins before travelling on a plane! And, as the strings were a well-known terrorist weapon they would have to get posted to their destination!!!

Fortunately sense prevailed & the $3 million violin, & the $1million violin in the custody of the second violinist, & the lesser stringed instruments were allowed on the plane intact.

I wonder what Customs thought of Danny's squeezy box?
