3 President s Report - September 2014 G Day All, Well we have had a few change of dates throughout August, with Bluewater moving to the first Friday because of the car show, and the Fun Day to the last Sunday because of the Fete at St Josephs. This left the 2 nd weekend free and allowed us to have our campout at Toomby s Horseland (see the photos in this edition). What a great weekend it was, with jam sessions all weekend and a great night with the locals on Saturday. Thanks to Geoff and Vicki and also Vicki O for their hospitality, and Geoff tells me it will be bigger and better (if that s possible) next year. So all will be back to normal this month. We only have 7 weeks till the Talent search, with entries on the web and facebook sites, it is easy to enter, so please don t leave it to the last minute. Our first entry came in the other day so if you require any further information phone More Sponsors would be a big help so if you know any likely Candidates talk to them now or let one of the Committee know. The covers for our new speakers have arrived and they not only look great but will protect them for a long time. Shane Barratt has made up a box to transport our wireless mics in, and if you are at the Fun Day check out the cover for the new mixer that he made. THANKS Shane. To any of our Members that are on the sick list we wish you a speedy recovery. That s about it for me this month so until next time, Country Always Darryl

The mother kissed him on the head, then said," That's all right. We'll wrap him in tissue paper, put him in a little box, then have a nice burial ceremony in the back yard. After that, we'll go out for an ice cream soda, and then get you a new pet. I don't want you..." Her voice trailed off as she noticed the turtle move. "Cyril, your turtle is not dead after all." "Oh," disappointed Cyril, wanting ice cream and a new pet, said. "Can I kill it?"

17 Australia will be happy to know that on August 29, the singer, songwriter and storyteller will release her tenth studio album and first solo record in four years, Bittersweet. Produced by American Nick DiDia at Studios 301 in Byron Bay, Bittersweet is something of a departure for Kasey from the expected. Signifying a new phase in her exciting and expansive career, Bittersweet sees Kasey enter the studio without her producer/ manager/ brother and good luck charm Nash Chambers for the first time. Although that collaboration has sold 1.2 million albums in Australia alone, I wanted to have an experience making a record that I had never had before. I wanted to challenge myself and I wanted to be excited, she says. The first single Wheelbarrow was written and performed with label and band mate Ashleigh Dallas. Wheelbarrow s perfectly captures Kasey and Ashleigh s collective love for melding the new and antique. Their brassy, swaying vocals mingle with banjo beneath the swaggering layers of Dan Kelly s overdriven guitar. While title track Bittersweet harks back to the ballsy, alternative country rock that flavoured seven times platinum selling Barricades & Brickwalls, it also delivers some brand new soundscapes for the exquisite song-writing and irresistible voice of one of Australia s most gifted and enduring talents. Bittersweet is again testament to the songwriting talents of an artist who has won 10 APRA Awards (she holds the record for the highest awarded solo APRA Songwriter in Australia across 10 studio albums), 10 ARIA Awards, 20 Golden Guitar Awards and nominations for 2 Americana Music Awards. Kasey Chambers will be at The Venue, Townsville Friday, September 26th

21 Lily just got tired, long day for tiny mutt! An elephant is drinking out of a river when he spots a turtle asleep on a log. The elephant ambles over and kicks the unsuspecting turtle clear across the river. "Why did you do that?" asks a passing giraffe. "Because I recognized it as the same turtle that took a nip out of my trunk 47 years ago." "Wow, what a memory!" says the giraffe. "Yes," says the elephant. "Turtle recall."
