Happy Easter, to those who celebrate it.

This afternoon we're live from Manly Beach, the southern end of the Manly Warringah/Pittwater peninsula. My boyhood stomping ground,still full of generations of memories for my family and one of my favourite places.

Merry Christmas to you and those you care about. Its Christmas Eve, and as I was preparing this on Sunday night, I decided to try to make the shows a little more regular in 2008. Haven't quite faded, maybe just in the lurking phase for the past coupla months. I wish you a safe, peaceful Christmas and a prosperous, joyful 2008. May we as indie podcasters, doing just for the halibut show there's more to this community than the need to make a fast buck. May we be sincere and supportive of our brother and sister podcasters, and may we continue to have fun doing what is so much fun. In the words of the Ubercaster - "Peace and Be Wild, Y'all". To much wine and not enough production value meant that all you get tonight, dear listener is me talking. No intro, no music, no outro. Sorry about that. We'll give you more Junior in episode 68.

Tonight, its mainly about my recent experience singing at the Sydney Opera House. On Sunday afternoon and evening I was in two concerts with the Choir of Hard Knocks, a Melbournbe choir formed by Mr Jonathon Welch, who previously formed the Sydney Street Choir, having been inspired by the story of Accueil Bonneau, the Montreal Homeless Mens Choir; a story he read in the Readers Digest about five years ago.

What an amazing experience.
