Another one bites the dust

RIP Mr Slim Dusty
looking Forward Looking Back !

 

For those that may not know who slim was
one of his many famous songs was PUB WITH NO BEER !

 

I'm hearing ya.

For the rest of the world's sake, a sad day for Australian's as one of the true Aussie icons (even if you don't like his music) has passed on.

Thats sad, the pubs will be full today.....OLDBEET

 

It's a bad day for you Aussies. Kinda like us Yanks losing Johnny Cash. I know my friend Rod Hadfield is going to be devastated with his passing. On our first trip Down Under, I rode with Rod from Castlemaine to Canberra for the Aussie Nats and listened to Slim Dusty the whole way there. Plus, Rod explained to me what a national treasure he was. I must admit that by the time we hit Canberra I was ready for a change of tune-literally. However, I'll take Slim and Johnny any day of the week when compared to the current crop of "singers" being foisted on us by the a-holes of the recording industry. Rest in peace, Slim.
