Today is World TB Day, and  New South Wales State Election Day and tomorrow is Greece’s National Day, so I will play some suitable tracks.

I attended the Blue Mountains Music Festival at Katoomba last weekend, and will play some tracks featuring some artists who performed there, including Colum Sands, Laura Love, Barbara Lamb, the National Junk Band, Paddy Keenan and Darren Hanlon.
