You guys rock three wonderfully  talented dudes. The combination of each of your inputs made the final product a entertaining experience that made me feel like I was a teenager again at a Youth dance.

Hi Bill
I have thrown a rough attempt on soundcloud for a couple of days of your clever piece. Hopefully someone who is better at that sort of genre will put together something that will do your piece more justice. It  is under Peatle Jville on Soundcloud.

Even down here at the bottom of the world Hank has a large fan base.

One of the best guitars I ever had was a Takemine.  A New Zealand Journalist Mark Sainsbury is trying to be your look alike.  If you get a chance CHECK his picture out online.http://www.radiolive.co.nz/Shows/MarkSainsbury.asphttp://www.radiolive.co.nz/Shows/MarkSainsbury.aspxx

This is not a gig story. Many years ago when I was walking through a park over in Tokyo Japan I was mobed by a whole bunch of screaming teenage girls who mistook me for a pop star. Maree who was with me was asked by a passer by does he play with Rod Stewart. That was my 15 seconds of mistaken fame. This now  is more a gig story when I was living in Sydney I became friendly with an old Jazz trumpet player. Every now and then I would sing an odd blues number with his band. His band's drummer had a drinking problem and got kicked out of the pub they were playing at.  Im not that good a drummer but filled in for the last set just jamming along to old standards. After the gig, a  gig  guide reporter asked me about my style of drumming. I jokingly told him I came from the  Keith Moon school of drumming.  The next guide that was published noted that a  fill in  drummer  had played the last set with the band. It also  said the drummer from New Zealand had also played drums with the famous Who.

Thank you Bill  you are  a great suporter of mine. You and Dondra are legends a vital part of the Chordie family.

There many who have large amounts of money who dont pay taxes or put back. While the struggling masses have no option and pay their taxes. Large Corperates are ruthless in the way they destroy small business. Good on the few  wealthy philanthropist who try and make  a differance. EB  you got me thinking.

It good to hear Dondra is doing well. Sorry to hear Burt Passed away. We have been thinking about you in our prayers. And many of us here in chordie land missed you while you were away, Great to have you back.

Miss  having you around recently Bill and your lovely Dondra. Your two are much loved by many of us from all around the world.

It must be disheartening for the the  increasing number of young people who have studied hard to improve their lifes stuck working on minimum wage jobs due to lack of opportunity. Fast Food shops and other global franchises full  of qualified people who studied hard to pass exams unable  to  use their qualifications stuck in low paid jobs. The other side is also those young people who dont have qualification but are prepared to work hard  if they could get a job. I agree with Jim a beautifully writen piognant poem. EB you have got us all thinking.

Hey it is real good to see your photos a great record of an important fun event. In years to come you will apreciate the fact that these images of all you wonderful characters exist.
Thank you for putting them up.

Jim those words hit the mark. My wife  and I have worked with drug addicts in the past at the Bridge programme those lyrics bring  out what addiction is. Societys around the world are been destroyed by drug addiction a  modern epidemic.
One of my songs on soundcloud Louis And Mum is about two drug addicts I knew when I lived in Sydney..
