Hi - here's a bit of an
update on happenings of late.
********************************
BLUE AND GREEN SHOULD ALWAYS BE SEEN
Scrumptious
food. Great
Wine. Outstanding music -
that's what A Day On The Green is all about.
And the best one yet took place at
Rochford Wines on
March 12 as the Liberation Blue stable of
greats performed their instantly
recognisable hits for thousands of fans.
And those
fans came in all shapes and sizes, young and
old -
poignantly demonstrated at one stage late in
the sun-drenched afternoon as a mother and
her teenage daughter locked arms near front
of stage and passionately belted out the
chorus to Diesel's
"Cryin' Shame". This
was a defining moment of what the event was
all about,
proving there was something for
everyone.
Also
unleashing their best from Liberation Blue's
successful Acoustic Series,
bringing ``the Green'' to its feet were Nick
Barker kick-starting
the day with gusto, followed by Christina
Anu mesmerising one and all with her stunning
vocals.
Enter
Stephen Cummings, who stripped it all back
for some raw acoustic charm, old favourite
Joe Camilleri kicked
up his heels for a good time on stage and
Diesel and his talented ensemble stepped
up the funk-o-meter before crowd
favourites Mark Seymour and James Reyne lifted
the show to
its climax and brought
it all
home with a cracking, closing cover
of April Sun In Cuba.
Liberation
Blue chairman Michael Gudinski said the
series began as a tribute to some of the
great singer/songwriters who have shaped the
distinctive musical character of Australia.
``The
public response to date has exceeded all my
expectations and confirmed the timeless
quality of their art. This day has been a
wonderful way to put it all on show
and at such
a great venue where everyone has had
such a great day.''
