Australia Day

26/01/09
Most Australia Days, I have gone down to Treasury Gardens where there is always an indigenous festival and lots of live music. Some Aboriginals refer to Australia Day as Invasion Day, but there definitely seems to be a closer bond this year than there has in previous years. There was also a much larger crowd which is good to see.

Whilst there, I had my photo taken with Archie Roach who I consider one of the greatest song-writers I have heard/seen. I also met Kutcha Edwards who is another singer/song-writer that I admire.
