It was a wonderful evening and I'm still taking it all in.

Thanks to Eve, Mick and Peter for trying to write about it, it was all they've said and more.

Now not to take anything away from Lillian, Mick, but she wasn't the only organizer, the credit for this goes to the whole committee of Lucy Bowers, Doug Campbell, Topaz Dawn, Jennifer Sutton and Lillian. Lucy should get a special mention because she was the instigator - is that what you'd call it Mick? The one who started it all happening.

The "wee red headed lass taking pictures" is Emma, sometimes a volunteer and sometimes Omie Lucy's conscript, but last night our official photographer. Her assignment was to take pictures of the musicians.

What can I say about the musicians. It was a wonderful line up to begin with but what made it so special is the way they all worked together: I think Bill McLean set the tone, he was Rick's bass player in the Acoustic Workshop band, and when he found out who was playing he e-mailed everyone to say "Hey, happy to work with you and what can I do". And suddenly it seemed everyone was sharing information.

I was in the Green Room before the show and all these performers were in groups here and there working out how to help each other. Eve got everyone together to work on the final song..it was teamwork from beginning to end.

I think that's all I can say right now. It was quite magical.
