Quindanning Hotel
Quindanning Hotel
Awesome Thursday night at the Quindanning Hotel on 15th Jan 2009, the weather was warm and the mood was right. A few chilled ales, punters relaxing in the beer garden to a bush sunset, a perfect canvas to lay down some sweet acoustic action. Also playing that night was the young band Bonjah who’s grooves really hit the sweet spot and I got to say I really enjoyed them.
Glenn Mossop on Vocals with a distinctive, inviting and charismatic style , the echo and crack of timbales from percussionist James Majernik, the deep sub bass tones of bass player David Morgan and the clean tones of a reggefied stratocaster hitting those punctuations right on time by Regan Lethbridge.
Now remember this is a Thursday night but in Quindanning that’s a different story. Talking to Rowan the manager it seems Thursday nights is the go for these parts of the woods and not to be underestimated, I swear the party was going to the wee hours of the morning and with very little let up in site.
As I awoke (if I slept at all) I could hear a fellow in another room adamantly saying to his mate, “Hey man, wake up, you got to go to work, wake up man, you got to go to work!”.
I think that about sums it up 
Yeh, there were a few headaches that morning but I reckon what the hell, this is the Quindanning, one of the best gigs in the country and definitely one of my favorites.

Festival of the Fret at the Perth Blues Club
Awesome night at the Perth Blues Club playing the annual “Festival of Fret”. A full house of happy punters and the rocking sounds of Mal Eastwick, Lindsay Wells, Gerard Maunick and yours truly Mike de Velta.
I got to say seeing and hearing these other great artists was a real joy, what impressed me was the distinctive tone each of these artist possessed, , while each wielded their own stratocasters each was unique and deeply personal.
Tone, tone, tone….yummy!
