Its hard to imagine this audience. I hope you enjoyed yourself. With a crowd like that I always think it is a good idea to try and tell a few jokes. Some people take themselves far to seriously. I have always held to the saying, if you believe your own advertising, your cactus.

Great to hear, Rob. I usually don't hang with the 'toffs' but, when it comes to paying gigs, it helps to go where the money is.

The Bunnies think that you should get together with Vinny and nigel and play a Waltzing Matildabunny cover collabowation down under, as deep as possible so we can feel the vibwations in USA. You must be nearly as famous over there as we are over here. Are you big down under Robbie?

Sounds like a pretty classy gig. Were your covers instrumentals or did you suddenly belt out Hey Jude in the midst of a classical set? I like your choices.
And was Country Road the John Denver "Country Roads" or James Taylor's "On a Country Road" or possibly some Kiwi favorite I'm unfamiliar with?
