Sydney in early January

It seems like January is a great time of the year to be in Sydney. New Year was quickly followed by the Sydney Festival.

They had a “First night” which had free performances across the city. We say a few free dance shows, which were pretty spectacular.
We also saw the Melbourne’s the Cat Empire who are deadly, for free!!! They’re kind of ska and bit more…

Grace Jones was also playing, but we saw her a few months back and she’s a bit to wierd to come in contact with too often….

There was a great atmosphere around Sydney anyway there’s been free gigs in the Domain every saturday night since and much like so many thins in this place, you just
couldn’t see it happening at home. Image 50,000 people sitting in Stephen’s green Dublin watching a free gig, with top class acts.

Family’s, young people, old, you name it…. In Dublin there’d be loads of drunk shites around the place wrecking it….

The Aussies really know how to do things right in so many ways.

I have to add that all my Interactions with them has led me to believe that they are largely very polite, kind and friendly…more about that later anyway….
