Jey – ‘car thingy’ is the annual “Shannons Wheels” – on Sunday on Old Parliament House lawns. Usually pretty big as many of the (classic) car clubs in Canberra see it as their main event for the year. In particular check out the Canberra Region Morris Minor Club and EJ-EH Holden Club displays which are usually pretty impressive. Contact available here http://www.shannons.com.au/events/

Sorry going to do this again to clear ambiguities [coz the graphics did not attach]

PAINTED HEARTS GIG

PHOENIX Sat 11th MArch 9PM

In my subjective view this is probably the best new band I’ve seen in this town in the past 18 months…hence my ever increasing need to go to Melbourne to see things like Bonnie Prince Billy, Smog, Joanna Newsome, The Blackeyed Susans, Conway Savage [Bad Seed], Lambchop, Darling Downs etc…

Come and make up your own mind as to whether this band is any good…I think they are….and if we don’t see you there we’re going to assume you’re one of those pathetic desperados trying to pick up at the D&D Ball [instead of the crystallised social custom of 3AM at the Phoenix]

If you like what you hear put your name on the mailing list @ the gig for upcoming events [eg playing at the Victoria Hotel Rutherglen 18th March….the weekend of one of the wine festivals etc]

They’re also at Toast Saturday 25 March…8.30 start…drinks at Happy Hour prices until 10.00

And if you can be bothered dragging yourself away from basking in the Indian Summer on Saturday morning/arv at Gorman House and walking 100m or so there’s Holi Mela in Glebe Park

It’s March and it’s autumn time. The time is perfect to be coloured, to renew love,
and recharge your vitality in sync with nature. And this is what Holi says!

Alex Lloyd and Shrek? How do you tell them apart?

It is of course our fair city’s birthday on Sunday and the start of the Celebrate Canberra festival (though dates are slightly confused as to when that starts). The main event is the Part in the Park or whatever it’s called with Something for Kate, Beccy Cole, Alex Lloyd and Shrek at Stage 88 this Sunday.

Rally of Canberra. http://www.roc.com.au
Yay!!!

I’ll be at the Fall Ball dancing the night away. For those interested, I was told people who do the class beforehand will learn how to do a charleston and some of the variations on it.
