*prays that the gig needs to be shifted to the following weekend in sydney and that the pixies get accidentally paid twice for it AND that the plane tickets get paid for by the company who the reassure the pixies that they dont have to pay back any of the extra money...becasue its the companys pleasure to have such talented beautiful people working with them!*

EXCELLENT!
Great to have you guys on board... what a clash though, oooher...Rainbow Serpent and the Sydney Juggling Convention! Be some sad faces about that one I think.... Rob's for a start! Does any guys have direct links for the Rainbow Serpent Festival? The best I've found searching is peeps telling each other on forums...

Brettstar, I take it that's a booking!

*wonders how he could miss it.. alien abduction? Continental dislocation? Rip van Winkle syndrome?*

I have some exciting premonitions about teachers, but don't want to say too much till they're confirmed. Rob is Otherwise Engaged for another week or so, but we'll certainly let ya know asap!
