The backroom in our cafe is almost finished if you'd like a small venue, contact Steve on the site details if you've interested
There are no rules (other than myself....sorry, bad joke about my surname, lol). I guess it will run according to the interests of the people who organise it. My interests are about having a festival that is 'bicycle self sufficient' (ie, no 'roadie…
I gather from the US festival site that they set up, play, then up-stumps and move on to the next venue by bicycle. Does this mean it's sort of guerilla busking? As in play a bit then move on before you're asked to move on while being given a ticket…
Well, I can perform a solo set of original folk/rock/blues if the guys in the band are too laz... er, not interested ;-)
Hi Steve, no date or venue set at this stage. We are really in the beginning phase and it may take a bit of networking to get things up and running. I'll be coming down to Melbourne more often after the release of my cd in late March (doing cello pe…
Is there a date and venue set? My next three months are all wrapped up in work, learning 40+ (25 in a hurry) songs for the band I've just joined and then getting married. I should be able to some limited, volunteer level help by about late April. Th…
That's fantastic Steve, another muso who rides. (I did suspect that you played an instrument ;-) I'm currently working hard on my new cd, but once complete (late March), I'm keen to start working towards a BMF with anyone who's interested in being a…
Ooops sorry, "Kirsten" should read "Kristen", damn my fat fingers!

Accordion said…
- I'm a music therapist. I work in a hospital in Melbourne. My professional instruments are piano or keyboard, accordion and guitar. I mostly use the piano. Despite being a cool instrument, the accordion can be overwhelming at times!
Where do you work?

Accordion said…
- Hi Kristin - I don't take the accordion on the bike. It is too heavy and I value it too much to consider taking it on the bike. The instrument weighs 8 kilos and the case is another 3!

- Thanks for the welcome, Kristin. Yes, I'm enjoying Melbourne VERY much, both cycling and music. (Oh, so much music, so little time and money! ;-)
My partner and I are hoping to get a bit of weekend touring in over summer, so we'll keep you guys in mind.
