Stronger Smarter Summit

22 October, 2009

Hi Folks

Towards the end of September I had the pleasure of being invited to perform for a Gala dinner event at the Strong Smarter Summit for Indigenous Education.  The event was hosted by the team at the institute and Dr. Chris Sarra – one of Australia’s leading theorists on Indigenous Education and Welfare – along with other dignitaries including the Deputy Prime Minister, Tom Calmer and Jeff McMullen.  The event was also a real celebration of real solutions to change the tide of low expectations in schools populated by Indigenous Students.  I was really lucky work along side Dr. Sarra once upon a time and to come together to see 450 odd people share their stories and celebrate was such a real gift.  You can visit the Stronger Smarter Institute at www.strongersmarter.qut.edu.au – enjoy the picks.

Cheers – AJ

**The Deadly’s 2009**

Hello Bloggers

We travelled towards Sydney town on the 15th of Oct for the 15th annual Deadly awards hosted by the wonderful crew at Vibe.

We had an absolute blast and I even got to host an award with the lovely Carla Grant.  No gong this year, but it was simply a

pleasure to get a nomination in with the likes of Gurrumul Yunupingu, Dan Sultan and Buddy Knox.  I even got to meet one of

Australia’s greatest AFL players – Mr. Nikki Winmar!  Go the Saints.

First Settlement Festival

Hey Hey AJ bloggers

This festival was a local one up towards Redcliffe.  It was a great festival with plenty of sunshine and powerboats cruising past for the big race day.

Fantastic gig with a massive turn out – even the young ones were dancing.

Cheers

**EKAA Awards + Barra Fishing Trip**

21 September, 2009

Hello blog followers

I had the recent privilege of being invited up to the community of Kununurra, Western Australia for the East Kimberly Aboriginal Achievement Awards (EKAAA).  It was an experience and a half and one I will NEVER forget.  We pulled off a great show and had plenty of fun – thank you again the people of East Kimberly for your hospitality and opportunity to play.  Whilst in town we managed to walk the Mini Bungle Bungles, Swim Lake Argyle, Fish the Ord River for Barra (we only got half a dozen 40cm undersized wild fish) and had an absolute blast.  We will definitely be heading back up that way early next year for a tour of some sort from Darwin to Broome.  One of THE most dramatic & beautiful places i’ve EVER been!  Enjoy the picks & travel safe.
