Subject: Australian pages--of value to all From: Bill D Date: 02 Sep 98 - 10:04 PM One of my favorite pages, which I check every day or two, is The Black Stump (this is a U.S. mirror site..the original is here)
This place has some of the best general links for savvy netusers anywhere (as well as OZ specific stuff)....you can really get lost in it

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Valda Date: 03 Sep 98 - 03:09 AM If you are interested in Australian folk music then you may find the folowing sites of interest: Matk Gregory's Songnet: http://www.chepd.mq.edu.au/boomerang/songnet/songnet.html and our own site, FOLK AUSTRALIA at: http://folk.mountaintracks.com.au/Folk_Australia/ This one is getting bigger by the day and the links page is a great place to find more on bush ballads etc. |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Valda Date: 03 Sep 98 - 03:20 AM Apologies for the poor spelling. I wasn't concentrating! That should have read "following". .. and, of course his name is Mark, not "Matk". |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: alison Date: 04 Sep 98 - 07:51 AM Hi Valda, welcome on board. Her site really is worth visiting. Has lots of info on all things folkie in Oz. And if you're really stuck for something to do you can try to find pictures of me, Alan of Australia and Bob Bolton there too!! Here's a hint... look in the folk profiles section. bob and I are there under "B" alan's under "F". Slainte alison |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Mr Happy Date: 07 Jan 03 - 04:26 AM Fiddler, Here's an alternative version: Ten little toes (Two Little Boys) Barrie Roberts Two little boys had two little toys Each had a cross cut saw Gaily they played sawing away And they ripped and they tore Then poor little Jack had a fearful mishap As he hacked off his left hand leg He hobbled about, screaming and shouting Till his young playmate said: Did you think I would leave you hobbling? And he hacked off his right leg too Climb up here, Jack, a bit of cobbling And you'll be just as good as new When we grow up we'll both be lumberjacks And we'll cut down the trees in rows And do you think that you'll remember When you had ten little toes Long years passed, lumberjacks at last Both of the boys became Sawing away until the fateful day When the forest was all aflame Joe got caught, struggled and fought But he could not get away He'd resigned himself to a fiery death When he heard Jack say: Did you think I would leave you frying? And he hacked off Joe's legs too Climb up here Joe and let's be flying For my tin feet will see us through Can't you see Joe, I'm all a-trembling Do you think it's the firelight's glows Oh, no, Joe, it's I'm remembering When I had ten little toes Cheers, Mr H |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Bill D Date: 07 Jan 03 - 10:18 AM ...!!totally amazing to see this thread again! Mr. Happy, you are replying to someone 4 1/2 years late. How did you find this? I still look at "Black Stump" and it is still a neat place, though MUCH more commercial than 4 years ago. |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: MMario Date: 07 Jan 03 - 10:22 AM The important thing is that the information is now *here* and available! |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Mr Happy Date: 07 Jan 03 - 10:26 AM Bill D, a respondent called fiddler gave me support on one of PEL [Public Entertainment Licensing- UK] threads. i wanted to know more about his views on other things so did a forum search. the oz pages was one he'd requested lyrics on- so i thought i'd return a favour. |

Subject: RE: Australian pages--of value to all From: Mr Happy Date: 07 Jan 03 - 10:33 AM btw- we need all the support we can get on the PEL issue- it's a real threat to our freedom of expresssion thru music & song- so it would be much appreciated if oz & nz folkies could lend their weight by signing the online protest petion. details at: http://www.petitiononline.com/2inabar/petition.html |
