ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

Scored a spot in the local this week all good advertising. At least I was not next to the Belly and I emphasis Belly dancers.


Sorry H there are some exceptions


Bob

Media slut actually ...

my son says Media Whore - you should have got a poem in about the Belly Dancers - that was a huge missed opportunity

leave my belly out of this......

Maureen every other year the have put me on after the little darlings do their dances and when they finish they procede to pack up in front of the stage ( where all the doting mums sit ) and then procede to leave.

This year I asked to do a slot between a couple of singing groups and one could pull their gear down behind the screen and the others set up it worked a treat . Kept all the audience and I stayed sober nearly all day.


Whore Slut call me what you will but if that's what it takes to get the word out there then count me in.


Hows his sound.

A local reporter did a story on me and this was the lead in I reckon it is brilliant.

IN full flow he can make a grown man cry at 10 paces.
And such is his versatility that those tears might be of laughter or despair.
Bob Pacey, the region’s best-known bush poet, has a verse stored in his memory for just about every occasion.
That’s why he’s in such demand and can be found reciting in pubs, libraries, showgrounds, museums and markets throughout Central Queensland and beyond.

There you go Bob, you've made it !

Thank you H but not really sure what IT ! is


Bob

Exactly!

Hey did you notice how slim I'am down to 72 kilos chaseing them sweet young things around the touch field must be doing me some good.

Now I just have to find one closer to my age who I can catch.
