Australian Tour '03
Margret RoadKnight and I continued our tour travelling down the Eastern Coast of Australia beginning in steamy Brisbane at the wonderful club The Healer February 12 and 13, the Civic Auditorium in Mullumbimby February 14, arranged by KU Promotions and then on to the very popular Tilley's, Canberra where the concert was recorded by ABC radio. There we were met by the World's Most Steadfast Fan and Roadie, Duncan Kimball who drove us to Sydney in our rental car, escorted us on a day off of shopping at the fabulous Ko-Koa in Rozelle and acted again as roadie at our appearance at the elegant Basement

On the 19th it was on to Adelaide heading for the popular Governor Hindmarsh Hotel and then to Melbourne for a day off to reconnect with old friends and rest. On the 22nd, I played a concert at the Melbourne Museum World Music Series called The Boite, dragging Margret up onstage at the end to do our ever-popular rendition of Waltzing Mathilda!

We appeared in Melbourne again the next day at the friendly Corner Hotel. Then we flew back to Sydney to visit old friends and rest and of course shop some more at the fabulous Ko-Koa, escorted by our stallwart roadie Duncan and lunching with members of his family!

Margret left for the rest of her tour starting with the Port Fairy Festival and leaving me on my own to finish up with a last minute, standing room only concert at Sydney's The Harp on March 1.
I spent the last few days with old friends and flew back to Canada leaving with fond memories and with a strong resolve not to wait so long to return again...thank you Australia for the amazing turn-outs and your enthusiastic support and thank you Margret for all your hard work to make the Australian leg of the tour happen!
