Broc
has fitted in to Spectrum like he was born to be
on bass |
gig
report
Sun. 27.9.15 Spectrum at the St Andrews HotelL
Broc
O'Connor's 2nd anniversary
28.9.15 - What a beaut
day! The good weather seemed to bring the crowd
too, so it was fine inside and out. It was the anniversary
of Broc's first gig with Spectrum - it's hard to
believe it's been two years already!
I can't think of anything particularly special about
the performance, although I did mystify a few (incl.
the band) with my excursions in Life is Just
a Slow Train.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) I'm heading into town to
have a chat with Denis Walter at 3AW about life
in the slow lane - tune in or tune out.. |

Mike
gets stuck into his friend the chocolate cake |
gig
report
Sun. 6.9.15 Spectrum + Hey Gringo at the Willy RSL
Father's
Day gig turns to cake
7.9.15 - I didn't
realise that it was Father's Day when the gig at
the Willy RSL was confirmed, but then I didn't realise
that it was by way of an extension of my 70th birthday
celebrations either, so I was really surprised when
Q&A host Rob Rowe presented me with a fab chocolate
birthday cake (pic) and an enormous birthday
card signed by masses of lovely people! I was so
rattled I didn't even blow out the candles before
cutting myself a slice! But I guess that's the kind
of guy I am - it's all about me, me, me.
The gig itself was a lot of fun and lots of old
friends turned up to help celebrate. Special thanks
to Rob Rowe and PA dude Tony Bishop and to everyone
else who was there.

Roger
Taylor at 3PBS hosting Helen Jennings' show |
Interview
with Roger Taylor for the Willy show
2.9.15 - Interviews with anybody
these days are few and far between so it was nice
to feel a little bit wanted again, even if it involved
getting up early and finding a park where there
were nearly none to be had. As it turned out 3PBS'
Roger Taylor (pic) was more generous with
his time than I expected and devoted a full 45 minutes
to chatting about this and that - mainly of course
about the upcoming Sunday arvo (Father's Day) extravaganza
at the Willy RSL It seems the last couple of weeks
have been devoted almost exclusively to digging
up old photos and posters for Way Out West's Rob
Rowe to compile a video to be shown on the day.
It looks like the show is going to be a hunk of
nostalgic, if not neuralgic, fun. Podcast |
