HANDY LINKS
THURSDAY 25 JUNE. THAT’S THIS WEEK. Floods and Rains have interfered with the outdoor gigs. LUFFLEY Cafe has suffered over the last few weeks. NEVER FEAR! Unless the LEVEE Breaks – The MUSIC CAFE IN ON ! Indoors. Plenty of heating and dry seating and a fie collection of artistes and curries with Iz as MC for the night.
Could be a few surprises there. Charity of the night – could be PCYC – will verify the details. Blackboard spaces from 6pm onwards. Music from 6.30pm.
At age 60, Izzy is on the Road. This weekend he played LUFFLEY at Murbah, stayed with his mate, Scrubby, out in the hills and rehearsed with LILY WHITE from BEECHMONT. Then the HILLBILLY BLUES BANDITS headed into LENNOX HEAD to play at the Pub. 9pm.- midnight. Izzy hopped on his trike and headed home to the Clarence down the Pacific Highway.
He stopped in for some nourishment at WOODBURN, the allnight cafe town, and met up with the security crew from LENNOX POINT, then found himself in the Winter Mists along the River Flats. Ah! The life of the Wandering Minstrel ! 3.am. homecoming and then the first knock at the door of FOREALTY TOWERS. A Sunday Morning Visit from the DOCS DISASTER RECOVERY TEAM.
Well, said Iz , Bertha the Fridge was lost in the muddy waters. A few forms filled in and photos taken by the extremely delightful Disaster Recovery Girls and Izzy just might be refrigerating his food once more.

LUNCHES AT WIDE RIVER CAFE

IZZY, once infamous for the Outrageous, has developed a real fondness for the Cafe Vibe. From Jamiesons in West Tweed and ILNAM WINERY in Carool, to LUFFLEY in Murwillumbah, he has played to and mingled with the Mobs that love their Music and Food combined. Down here on the Clarence he has played two EMPORIUM MUSIC CAFES and yesterday continued the tradition at WIDE RIVER CAFE in ULMARRA with Andrew Hegedus- Accoustically. |

IZZY ON THE CLARENCE
|
Foreal Enterprises have now relocated to the Clarence River NSW. The relocation did manage to coincide with the Major Flood of 2009 which threatened their new premises and led to isolation by dark and muddy waters for a week. Izzy was unable to peform at the Greenmount Gig in Coolangatta with Scrubby ( BLIND WILLIE WAGTAIL) and missed two LUFFLEY Gigs despite a valiant effort to reach the 2nd one via the SUMMERLAND WAY. ________________ The gig he has been able to cross flooded waters and reach is the MUSIC CAFE at the EMPORIUM in SOUTH GRAFTON. Not a bad way to be welcomed to a new community. No cash involved but Iz says he’s being paid in cosmic tender. Music Cafe charges $3 entry and that $3 goes to one local charity each month. Izzy also says that its a good way to absorb the Grafton Musical Culture and begin to see where he might fit. Music Cafe covers an age range from schoolkids to elders and a wide musical spectrum including harpists, rockers, rhythm and blues, banjo, novices, loonies, folk and one powerful rendition of Hallelujah by a young woman with an enviable voice and persona.
Its on again next month – the last Thursday . 02 66 433525
