Went to Club Banora tonight with Helen and Greg from Cairns to see BULLAMAKANKA
Check Billys Blog.


this is not BULLAMAKANKA at CLUB BANORA. This is US in a foto booth in sydney when we lived in south coogee. Rang Kate tonight when they were playing HOME AMONGST THE GUM TREES. and the Banora crowd was singing alony.
THis IS NOT BULLAMAKANKA a CLUB BANORA either but its is some of BULLAMAKANKA.In their new band PASPALUM. Pete played banjo and didg tonight and sang. and dave played mandolin- lead vocals and harmonica. Pete looked rural in a hat of a very australian nature and dave looked schmick in black inc black hat. tonight they were PRO-FESSIONAL.  Izzy made a guest appearance with his song - LIVING IN THIS WEALTH OF POVERTY. which is why i put the foto booth foto up. cause i used to sing EVEN THOUGH WE AINT GOT MONEY IM SO IN LOVE WITH YOU HONEY when the kids and me were really broke in dept housing in south coogee and in bondi. and Izzys living in this wealth of pverty has the same magic for the perennially poor but well loved and happy.
