The Next big thing!


Dear Fellas
I guess the next big thing is our breakup on Dec 4th at John's, BUT, the next biggest thing after that is the carol sing-thing. The carols are at Yandoit Uniting Church on Sunday December 16th at 7pm. James and Jane and i have nutted out four rehearsal times, Mon 3 Dec, Mon 10 Dec, Wed 12 Dec and Frid 14 Dec at Jame's and Jane's house in Maldon at 7pm. You have heard Jeames and myself rave about it, now come and experience it yourself.

What is it to sing!


Opera is where a guy gets stabbed in the back, and instead of dying, he sings.” Robert Burns

This is a fault common to all singers, that among their friends they will never sing when they are asked; unasked, they will never desist.” Horace 65 bc

The tenor's voice is spoilt by affectation, And for the bass, the beast can only bellow; In fact, he had no singing education, An ignorant, noteless, timeless, tuneless fellow. - Lord Byron

Sing again, with your dear voice revealing A tone Of some world far from ours, Where music and moonlight and feeling Are one. Percy Bysshe Shelley
