Whose going to the game vs the Titans on Saturday?

[bad boy bubby]

I only ask as I'll be there for the start but I'm going to have to shoot off at half time because I'm playing my first gig in a couple of years at The Brass Monkey with the great Charlie Owen.
Charlie is just about my all time fave guitarists ever and he's played with the whose-who of Aus Music.
His list:
Louis Tillett, New Christ's, The Divinyls, Tex Don and Charlie (Tex being Tex Perkins, Cruel Sea and Beasts of Bourbon. Don being Don Walker of Cold Chisel). Paul Kelly, Jimmy Barnes, Beasts of Bourbon, and the list goes on and on.
My last show was with him in Erskineville a couple of years ago.
I got offered this gig and knew it was our first game but I just had to do it.
I've now worked my way I where I can do gigs again because I changed careers.
The need to play was too strong to ignore. Plus the fact I've got a shyte load of new songs to get out of my brain.
I'll get the first half in then high tail it down to the Monkey.
I'm pretty sure not many would be inclined to come down after the game, and that is cool, but if you are looking for a good time with one of the best musos Australia has produced, Charlie, not moi! Then come on down.
Paul Kelly even wrote a song about Charlie, that is the depth of the man!!!!

Wow - I had no idea this was on Saturday night. Charlie is a legend.
I’ll be at the game but looks like a 800pm start so I’ll try and get there with the wife post game.
Do yourself a favour people and check it out - not like you’ve got a club to go to post game….

I'll be at the game, can't make the gig afterwards but might have a Tex Don & Charlie or MD Horne CD playing in the car on the journey.

lol reminds me of incidents few yrs ago when sad methhead used to haunt parking lot of local woolies . The line was “do you smoke at all? “ after saying NO 1000 times I said “well I usually have a drink before and then a smoke after . “Jeeez I had to run for my life! lol!

It’s was a bloody special alright.
Whilst I only caught the back of @bad boy bubby set, that’s was a great starter. I would have seen more but literally ran from the swamp to woolooware station then trained to nulla to meet Mrs shadow.
Seeing Charlie was something else.
Just an amazing performer, story teller and alround human. I was getting a bit misty when he was performing ‘postcard from Elvis’
Probally the highlight was seeing Bubby up there performing with the great man at the backend of the set. It was awesome. Well done mate. Didn’t miss a beat.
Whilst we only chatted briefly, it overshadowed the performance over the team at the swamp.
Music definitely makes life worth living and in the moment, everything else can fade away.
Cheers
