Us Oz folks are about to get lucky, with El Greko and Cloudstreet here for the National Folk Festival. The Sydney folks are even luckier, because as a warm up, they are also doing a special concert for us at my folk club in Sydney, North By Northwest Folk Club, this Sunday afternoon April 9th at 2pm.

It is at the Cornucopia Cafe, which is in the grounds of the Old Gladesville Hospital, corner of Victoria Rd and Punt Rd. If you are not familiar with the place, you might need to PM me for directions - and any other details (or email me if you have my email address).

I'm taking bookings, so if there are any Ozcats out there who aren't on the list yet - better let me know!

Also, as a warm up to the warm up, and to give visiting shanty singers and mudcatters Spindrift (Barbara and Al Cuenin) a taste of our warm Aussie hospitality, John and I are having a BBQ and session here at Earlwood this Friday the 7th, starting around 6pm. Again, if you need more details, PM or email me! Should be a good night, with tasty food and music under the coloured lights - there's plenty of gas for the barbie, ready for the roo steaks, and a new tarp has been erected which hopefully won't blow down :-) Don't you wish you were here, Charlie?
