Wow it's 2 years since we were int he US for the Blues Player of the Year comp.

Wow. Theo pointed out we've been busy.

- The downtime album
- Sweet Grace of Mercy
- 2 CRAB festivals
- 2.3 seasons of Downtime
- The material we're finishing now.

I am mixing the current batch and getting such a kick out of Upside of Down.

Also: Filters. 

Fox and Hawkey both got COVID and are recovering, thanks heavens we pulled those shows.

So 2022 is the year of recovery ;)

Thanks for sticking around. A Happy and prosperous new year to you from all of us.

Suspending shows until we get our boosters

Our mate Hawkey got crook at a gig. He was double vaxxed.

We're all getting boosters. Looks like all the shows will be canned until then. What a time.

Merry Christmas in 2021

2nd Christmas in times of COVID, Who'da thunk it.

Our gig for the 24th at Shady's is cancelled. That's the right thing to do at the moment.

We'll see what happens in the next few days. The other shows we have on the books are now subject to assessment.

On behalf of the band, thank you for your company in 2021. What a time it has been.

Whereever you are, we hope you stay safe, get your vax and boosters and continue to ride out this strange start to the 21st century :)

Oh the changes they are a timing

We have 17 tracks in production and post. That's a lot. For us to have in an unreleased state.

Working on it as best we can. 

I am hoping to see another iteration of website changes, it's about time.

When we started the blog, it was for R, and Big Daddy and a few other folk who were overseas, sometimes in harms way. 

I knew from Dad's time in service that having a touchstone of the mundane was important.

R would write to me about being on QRF or dodging mortar rounds while playing soccer.

I'd write back about problems with the PA, issues with the van we hired for a run to newcastle (the van that smelled of fish).

Having the blog was a way of sharing this experience. In particular, for me, the sheer joy of driving through New South Wales, of getting on the road, travelling and meeting people, hearing the stories, telling the stories of others.

(btw thats a photo from jonesy but its pretty innit)

 

Our first articles here started in 2008. Wow.

The world sure has changed in the time we have been active. The local greats we grew up with are moving on. The way the world interacts with media has changed dramatically.

CD's are more or less a niche item. Streaming services have made a difference in how music sells and works, and well....

In this time, we have made 700+ videos, coming up on our 14th album, done 5 trips to the US, won the Blues Player of the year, been on the charts with....ah heck you know all this already, and you come read this blog in spite of it ;).

Thank you for being with us on this journey, I hope you'll stick around as we continue our work. Be calm if you see any changes or the website blows up :) That'll just be us mutating.
