Newport Lakes Bush Dance.

Last Sunday's bush dance at Newport Lakes was a fabulous affair. A fun time was had by all.

Highlights for me were the wonderful acts performed by some of our talented locals.

Working as a team to put on a great show. Having a laugh on stage. Putting our musical skills to use. Watching people enjoy themselves, dancing and having fun.

Storytellers Jackie Kerin and Dave Davies.


Some extremely talented younsters. And quite possibly the tallest and the smallest fiddlers in the world,
on stage together!
We already knew that the big feller can play. He is, of course the inimitable Greg O'Leary. His little mate also did a stirling job. Michael Stewart accompanied them on keyboard, and the whole show held us all spellbound

After the show, our lovely Swedish girl, Annette plied us all with shots of schnapps. As is her custom.









We all went home exhausted, but happy. Another splendid event brought to you by the Newport Folk Club.

  1. Looks like you all had a ball, and it sounds like a hoot. I wish I could play a musical instrument. Maybe next time I'll make it there and do a bit of bush dancing, lol.
