It’s MardiGrass!

This year is Nimbins 32nd annual MardiGrass and you’d reckon by now ‘weed’ be left alone. The same helicopter raids, the disgusting, and completely unfair, saliva testing of drivers, and we’re still not allowed to grow our own plants. We can all access legal buds via a doctor, most of it imported from Canada, but we can’t grow our own. There’s something very wrong there.

The bridges of Ballina Council

Ballina Shire Council has started preliminary investigation works at Fishery Creek Bridge, on River Street, and Canal Bridge, on Tamarind Drive, as part of their plan to duplicate both bridges.

Following a run of butt-kicking festival appearances over the last few months, Starboard Cannons are back in town for a show at the Billinudgel Hotel.

Based in Byron Bay’s forested hinterland, Starboard Cannons is the creation of Ash Bell and Matt Bone. Fundamentally an acoustic duo, Ash and Matt have been writing and performing together since 2009. Described as having a style ‘somewhere between the Scottish highlands and the Aussie bush’, Starboard Cannons put songwriting at the helm, and back it up with a solid live performance.

Starboard-Cannons. portraitCurrently in the studio working on their second album, the Cannons are running a crowdfunding campaign through Pozible to fund the project.

This show at the Billi is somewhat of a fundraiser, though it’s still a free show and there is no obligation. With special guests Heartworn Highway, along with a few extra bits and pieces, this is shaping up to be a great evening for one and all!

Saturday January 11, Billinudgel Hotel.

Youth crime is increasing – what to do?

There is something strange going on with youth crime in rural and regional Australia. Normally, I treat hysterical rising delinquency claims with a pinch of salt – explicable by an increase in police numbers, or a headline-chasing tabloid, or a right-wing politician.
