Some time out bush before a busy week of country music festival gigs

Thanks to Rod Paine & The Fulltime Lovers for having me help launch their new album, thanks to George Lane for a great room to play, and thanks Sean Clohesy for the ripper shot!

Did you know that spider-monkeys evolved to have only four fingers on each hand? No thumbs! Despite what it looks like in the photo, this is where I'll be fingerpickin' with my ten - definitely human - digits this weekend:

Back at Baxter's Lot tonight with Mal Beveridge to sing some honky-tonk, hillbilly, & blues! Hats for illustration purposes only, not included.

Here I'm probably laughing nervously, trying not to play the guitar licks I've acquired from Geoff...

The 'Geoff Achison & Friends' jam was the personal highlight of the Ballarat Blues Festival - thanks Geoff, John, and Shane for the jam sesh!

Ballarat Blues Festival was a ripper! Thanks to Aunty Jacks and Hop Temple for having me. I love gigging so much that sometimes I just start pashing the microphone…

I'm looking forward to heading out west this weekend - for Ballarat Blues Festival!

Another ripper time with Blues Roulette - thanks to Travis Winters for the jams, and The Lomond for having us!

It's been yonks since I played The Lomond! Tomorrow night I'm teaming up with Travis Winters for a good old jam - with the Blues Roulette rhythm section!
