Thank you Paddy for the pics from Norfolk Island. Do I see Vaughan Jones from Troy Cassar Daley's band on keyboards?
For those who don't know, Michel Rose is generally regarded as the best steel player in Australia (as Paddy is in NZ). I think you will be at the upcoming Brisbane Steel Guitar Show in a couple of weeks Paddy, in which case I look forward to seeing you play and I will come and say hello if that's OK.
To see more of Michel Rose check out 'The Feral Swing Katz' on Youtube.

It is a pleasure to view these photos and could not help but notice how nicely dressed the performers are. Illustrates respect for your audience in my opinion which is evidently a lost art in this country, (at least on the professional level, read:Grand Ole Opry).

Agreed, David. The only possible improvement I could envision here is if the sidemen were outfitted with black ski masks so they would become
totally invisible to their audience..

Hi Paddy,
What a pleasure it was to spend some time with you and hearing you play. I had such a great time. Thanks for the use of your Amp mate and i am definitely envious of your guitar BIG RED.
I nearly took it home with me by mistake.
