Byron Writers Festival continues to thrive Rivalling Melbourne’s Writers Festival in terms of size the Byron Bay event, on this week, has grown from an elite gathering of a few hundred people in 1997 to around 8,000 today. Writers Festival Director Jill Eddington started her six year association with the Byron Bay festival in 1999 when she signed on as a volunteer. ‘The biggest change in that time is seeing the incredible growth from a small, niche and quite elite program to a very broad ranging and inclusive program. It has gone from something mainly for locals to something which has become nationally significant and of which I am very proud,’ she says. ‘It used to be purely about books and literary writers, but has become a festival of ideas and a forum for people to come along and engage in debate and discussion.’ ‘The audience now includes a very broad sweep of the community. By bringing a lot of different things into the program such as

sport and celebrities the audience is not just a little elite group. Our audience from outside the Byron Shire is also growing. People are seeing this as a perfect example of cultural tourism, to enjoy food for the mind.’ An impressive line-up of writers and commentators turn up each year. Jill says that her personal highlight is the appearance of author Kate Grenville this year. ‘I was personally thrilled that Kate Grenville is coming this year, she is one of my most favourite writers. Since the day I started this job I have been inviting her and this is the first time since I have been here that she has been able to make it. She has her wonderful new book [The Secret River] and will be delivering the Thea Astley lecture on Friday evening.’ ‘To have people like John Clarke, Peter Beattie and John Safran coming is amazing. We are also honoured to have senior aboriginal elder Hazel Brown coming from Perth.’

One of the most popular parts of the program has been the humour session on Saturday night with John Clarke, John Safran, Wendy Harmer and Guy Rundle which was booked out three days after the tickets went on sale. Government funding has been at the core of festival funding from the early days, but has been decreasing as a percentage of the budget as the festival has become more successful at attracting sponsorship and ticket sales have increased. ‘Ticket sales have become much more predictable and this allows us to fund a more exciting program,’ explained Jill. An army of around 120 volunteers make the wheels go around during the festival weekend, a task the five paid staff could not handle alone. ‘It would be unthinkable to run the festival with a paid workforce. It’s just an incredible thing that we get volunteers coming back year in year out. ‘We have a waiting list for people who would love to volunteer for us. We have developed an incredible core of people who love being involved in the event, so each year they put their hand up again.’ The extent to which local people are interested in writing is being ‘mapped’ this year. Southern Cross University’s School of Arts and the Northern Rivers Writers Centre will begin mapping at the festival in conjunction with the regular visitor survey. The Writers Map will provide local writers, students, academics, educators, industry professionals and comcontinued on page 2

Frank’s still firing on all cylinders

Jeff Dawson Climbing into the sidecar of Paul McCarthy’s vintage Triumph Frank Scarrabelotti looked a little less nimble than usual still he was eager for a spin around town, ‘It’s been eight years since I’ve been for a ride with Paul’. That was on his 100th birthday. Now on the eve of his 108th birthday Frank reckons, though he doesn’t have any aches or ailments, he’s starting to feel a bit older. It’s remarkable enough that Australia’s oldest man still lives with his wife of 52 years, Nell, at their home in Bangalow. Far more amazing is his good health, his good spirit, love of life and wonderful sense of humour not to mention his

sharp-as-a-tack mind. Recently I’ve seen Frank and Nell at the Bangalow Music festival then again a couple of months ago at the billycart derby. He’s opened the Bangalow Show, taken the kickoff for the reformed Bangalow Royals League team. The Scarrabelottis are at St Kevin’s Catholic church for mass every Sunday. Frank was on the committee which in 1935 commissioned the building. Nell drives Frank down to Byron Bay for a shopping trip each week and Frank is

almost daily pottering in their beautifully manicured garden. Born in Coraki, Frank moved to Newrybar in 1906 where he attended the local school. A natural man of the land Frank raised Illawarra dairy cows at his Nashua farm most of his life, then retired back to Bangalow in 1979. When I asked the inevitable, ‘what’s the secret to your long life?’ Frank replied, ‘That’s the wrong question. To me the question should be, how to enjoy a long life? continued on page 2

Development possible for sensitive Lennox site Alex McAuley A 55 hectare property opposite the Lennox Headland is currently being investigated for its development potential. Hugging the western side of the coast road between Lennox and Skenners Heads, much of the land in question is protected

under state government SEPP26 policy as it contains a large remnant of Littoral rainforest, a wetland area and a number of threatened plant species. It also contains prominent ridges and hill slopes that comprise an important part of the character of Lennox Headland.

The owner of the land says he is aware of the enormous sensitivity of the site and has described any potential development as ‘limited and sensitive’. He has employed the services of Rob Kooyman of Earth Process Ecological Proccontinued on page 2

esses to assess the environmental impact any development would have on the land in question. ‘The proposed development is very much in its conceptual stage at the moment, and I hope to be able to inuence the planning process and set a precedence in sensitivity in development,’ said Mr Kooyman. ‘We are dealing with the constraints of a very sensitive area; I have identiďŹ ed several endangered eco systems as well as endangered species on the site which need protection. In addition there is the question of SEPP71 planning policy and the visual impact any development would have on the local area.’ According to Mr Kooyman, of the 55 hectares under investigation only 26 are developable, and it is his expectation that only a very small proportion of that 26 hectares will end up being developed due to environmental constraints. Madeleine Faught, a social ecologist who is coordinating the community consultation process is reluctant to discuss any likely form the development may take at this stage, but ruled out urban development. ‘The proposed project offers the potential for a substantial community environmental facility, further supporting the integrity of the site’s ecosystems and spe-

cies,’ said Ms Faught. ‘This facility could become a multipurpose use facility for the community without detracting from the current village focus and atmosphere. ‘The land is not zoned for urban development and there are no plans to apply for re-zoning. At this early stage, I would prefer to consult with the community before making any public statements about what may or may not be developed on this site.We are working from the bottom up by consulting the community at this conceptual stage rather than presenting the community with a master plan.’ Ms Faught has organised an initial meeting with members of the Lennox Head Access Group along with invited representatives from other key community stakeholder groups in early August to discuss the conceptual planning process for the proposed development.

Frank turns 108 continued from page 1

The answer is I’ve always maintained an interest in what’s going on around me, in the community, and the world. I try to keep up with the news, I’ve never stopped learning’. A reluctant celebrity Frank will spend his 108th birthday this Thursday quietly celebrating with his beloved wife, two daughters and close family.

David Wallace and Carol Pickering are leaving the post office they established in Suffolk Park after 12 years behind the counter. Looking forward to a well earned retirement on their Broken Head property, David and Carol say they are leaving the business in good hands. Long time Suffolk resident, Jo O’Connor, took over the running of the post ofďŹ ce last Monday after a formal handover from Australia Post area manager Stuar t McRae.

Jo is no stranger to business in Byron Bay. She started the childrenswear shop Babes at Bay and ran the laundromat in Byron with her husband for many years. ‘I am looking forward to continuing some old friendships and establishing plenty of new ones over the post ofďŹ ce counter,’ she told The Echo.

Successful night for Whales Alive fundraiser Whales Alive would like to thank the volunteers, community, Byron businesses, and the artists involved for making the Whales Alive Blues BeneďŹ t such a successful night last Friday at Byron Bay Bowling Club. The event was attended by 230 people, raising $3,000 for theWhales Alive Research Fund. Opened by Arakwal guests, Yvonne and Nigel Stewart, the night was compered by Mandy Nolan, who kept the audience in hysterics between the extraordinary and intimate performances by Tim Ireland Trio, Paul Greene, Ash Grunwald, Hirst & Greene, and Jeff Lang. As well as the funds raised, the event raised awareness

about the whales fascinating natural history and what threatens their survival. Support for the event from the local community was overwhelming. An original painting donated by Nigel Stewart raised $320 at auction. Byron Bay Dive Centre and Bay Sail kindly donated whale watching trips, Byron Music donated a guitar that was signed by all the artists and is being rafed, Oasis Resort sponsored accommodation, Music @ Byron assisted with ticket sales. The event could not have been held without major sponsors including Green Garage, Ku Promotions, Katoush, The Museagency, Howie Cooke, and HardďŹ n-

ger Management. Stay tuned. This could become an annual event. Whales Alive’s collaborative research work in the PaciďŹ c aims to build a case against the Japanese socalled scientiďŹ c whaling.

Director Olive Andrews leaves this week to conduct marine mammal research in British Columbia, Canada, in the hope of helping to halt damaging seismic testing by the oil and gas industry.

‘Breastfeeding and Family Foods: Loving and Healthy’ is this year’s theme for World Breastfeeding Week, celebrated from August 1-7 in over 120 countries.

With categories in photography, painting, sculpture and ceramics it will be a diverse show.

The traditional section means that from start to ďŹ nish methods have been used that involve a traditional type of camera and the darkroom process of using chemicals to produce an image.

The local members of the Australian Breastfeeding Association will put the WBW display in Mullumbimby together to promote the message of WBW highlighting the importance of exclusive breasting for the ďŹ rst six month of life. ‘It can be confusing for parents as many of the labels on baby food products around Australia are still not updated to reect the change to the recommendation, as many baby food labels still incorrectly show the appropriate age as four months,’ said Natalie Askill from the Lismore branch of the Association.

Last Saturday, Mike Parr, one of Australia’s leading contemporary artists, conducted a workshop at the Piece Gallery Print Studio in Mullumbimby. Parr is not only internationally known for the controversial performances that deeply disturb our symbolic order, but is also highly regarded for an outstanding array of drawings and dry point prints researching identity and representations of the self.

Armed with mirrors, the workshop par ticipants scratched, scored, sawed or hacked their various reections into metal plates and ply blocks. Keeping up a high momentum, Parr guided the group through a variety of creative printing techniques. According to Parr ‘an astounding and focussed body of work emerged rapidly’, challenging the Piece Gallery Print Studio and its two technical assistants, Christine Will-

cocks and Liz Deckers. With the same generosity he exhibited towards conducting this workshop, Parr donated his own prints to the management. One of these Mike Parr prints, a combined woodblock and drypoint etching, will be rafed as a fundraiser for c.a.s.e, the not-forproďŹ t organisation running the Piece Gallery and Print Studio. Tickets for this rafe will be available from the gallery.

Alyssa Black triumphs on the clarinet Alex McAuley Alyssa Black is not your average fourteen year old school girl. She has discovered, it seems, that she possesses an extraordinary talent for music, speciďŹ cally the clarinet. At the recent Murwillumbah Festival of Performing Arts in June, Alyssa came away with a swag of awards, including ďŹ rst in the 14 years and under, 16 years and under and 20 years and under woodwind solo performance; first in the 20 years and under concerto performance and won the 20 years and under instrumental championship. If that’s not enough, she was also awarded a $750 prize for being the outstanding performer at the festival. Such lofty achievements are admirable under any circumstances, and you would be forgiven for thinking that Alyssa has being taking clarinet lessons for many years. In fact, this gifted youngster has been taking lessons for only eight months. She ďŹ rst picked up a clarinet at the age of nine when

the Mullumbimby Primary School invited local musician John Helman to introduce the students to a variety

of instruments for the purpose of auditioning for the school band. She has never looked back. Being largely

self taught, Alyssa has put herself through fourth grade and sixth grade examinations, receiving high distinctions in both, a standard she has managed to maintain in every examination she has taken since. She has recently taken up tuition with Paul Dean, a concert performer who lives in Brisbane, travelling up the coast once a fortnight for a lesson.Alyssa’s grandmother, Shirley Ford, is very proud of her granddaughter and believes she has a bright future. ‘Paul Dean is ver y impressed with her; he thinks she will go far. She wants to be a concert performer and has already started performing with the Lismore Symphony Orchestra. She works incredibly hard and is entirely self motivated; nobody pushes her to practise, she wants to do it all day every day – she absolutely loves it,’ said Ms Ford. With such a strong desire to succeed and an exceptional amount of talent thrown in, Alyssa looks very likely to fulďŹ l her dreams.

Footbridge will help with greenhouses gases, says report Construction of a footbridge at South Golden Beach could reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions by over 10 tonnes, enough to fill around 22,500 wheelie bins, according to a local clean energy company. Climate Friendly of Byron Bay took on the job of calculating vehicle exhaust emissions as a favour for residents of South Golden Beach/ North Ocean Shores who were keen to quantify the environmental beneďŹ ts that would flow from the construction of the footbridge. Currently, the South Golden Beach community is divided by a man-made waterway, the Capricornia Canal, which forces the majority of residents to drive from one side of the canal to the other. In some cases, neighbours who are little more than 100 metres apart on opposite sides of the canal

have a 5.2 km round trip to visit each other. Climate Friendly’s calculations compared the current vehicle-reliant situation with one where the footbridge existed. Based on a conservative estimate of only 10% of local residents walking or cycling via the footbridge, they calculated that greenhouse gas emissions could be cut by over 100 tonnes over a 10-year period. ‘The numbers seem very big, but we have been conservative and it just shows that when a lot of people change what they do, it has a big impact,’ said Climate Friendly managing director Joel Fleming. Vehicle exhaust load calculations were based on all households within the footbridge catchment using an average-sized 2.5 litre vehicle to make three trips per week to the South Golden Beach

cillors prior to the ordinary planning meeting on August 9 where they are expected to consider the footbridge DA.

Toy library re-opens The Byron Shire Toy Library is finally opening its new doors on Monday August 8. After nearly two years of searching for a suitable location and raising adequate funds, the library will be moving to larger accommodation in a cabin outside the Byron Bay Preschool, 119121 Jonson Street (opposite the Dendy cinema). The library is having an Open Day on Monday August 8 from 10am until 2pm and anyone interested

in joining the library either as members or volunteers is welcome to visit. A ‘mini opening ceremony’ will be held at 11.30am. The library supports some 130 member families. It provides a range of toys from indoor educational to outdoor physical activity aimed at an age range of 0-8 years. The toy facility provides a valuable opportunity for people from all socioeconomic levels, many of whom cannot afford to buy toys.

Volunteer With exactly one month to go today to one of the biggest events on the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter calendar, it’s annual Doorknock Day, a call has gone out for volunteers to give a couple of hours on August 28. ‘It is the time of year where we asked everyone to get behind their rescue helicopter and give just a couple of hours,’ said Philip Gibson, Doorknock Day coordinator. For more information about volunteering call 6627 4444 or email philip@ helirescue.com.au.

Debate on smoking bans on again The recent decision by the state government to introduce a no smoking policy for pubs and clubs has become the subject of public debate once again after peak health groups launched a new campaign to counter pressure from the hotel industry to water down the bans. The current Smoke-free Environment Act deďŹ nes an enclosed area as one that is completely or substantially enclosed. According to Diana Fisher from The Cancer Council NSW far north coast regional ofďŹ ce the hotel industry believes it has succeeded in convincing the government to change the deďŹ nition, so smoking can continue in areas that are 75% enclosed. ‘We’re concerned that the ďŹ nal ban in July 2007 will be quite different from what people expect if the hotel industry succeeds in getting this loophole included in the new regulations,’ said Ms Fisher. ‘Unless we give the public a way to counter the industry pressure, the ďŹ nal

ban could actually mean smoking is allowed in rooms that have large windows or a wall missing.’ Ms Fisher’s greatest concern is that an area with a roof can be classiďŹ ed as an outdoor area when in fact the roof will trap the hazardous smoke particles and retain them within the space. ‘Surely any area that has a roof must be defined as a substantially enclosed space,’ said Ms Fisher. ClubsNSW Chief Executive OfďŹ cer David Costello vehemently opposes the Cancer Council NSW’s claims, saying they have lost all credibility by suggesting that an outdoor smoking area somehow subjects nonsmokers to second hand smoke. ‘The NSW Cancer Council has this morning claimed people will be able to smoke in a room if it has large windows or removes a wall. That is disgracefully untrue,’ said Mr Costello. As an example of how this lack of clarity in current leg-

islation affects the ban, somebody who wants to have a drink at the Middle Pub in Mullumbimby in a smoke free area would ďŹ nd that the middle b bar and music venue is indeed a smoking area because it is classiďŹ ed as an outdoor area when it has all its doors and windows open and the kitchen is closed. Kirk O’Sullivan, licencee/ manager of the Middle Pub explained, ‘A representative from the Australian Hotels Association came in about three months ago and measured up the area. When all the doors and windows are open, the wall space is sufďŹ ciently limited to allow the area to be classiďŹ ed as outdoors as long as food is not being served.’ Presumably, similar rules would apply to the main bar and performance area at the Beach Hotel in Byron Bay, however manager Terry McCulloch has no plans to change the status quo which only allows smoking in the public bar.

Local Nero ends the fiddling Vol 20 #11

Celebrating the life of words The Byron Bay Writers Festival represents most of what’s good about cultural tourism. It brings people to the region who care deeply about issues and are happy to share their wisdom. It gives keen readers and writers of Byron Shire the opportunity to get a different perspective on life, to interrogate their heroes and have a good laugh as well. Organisers believe the festival is likely to be the most successful ever. It is hard not to see the attraction, both of the beautiful location and the chance to immerse yourself in the world of literature and debate, to be challenged and to be entertained. Part of the festival’s appeal from the beginning has been the fact that it does not cling to a purist view of festivals for writers. It ranges across associated areas, including music, art, radio and photojournalism. And even calligraphy – Liu Can-ming, Dean of the art department at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, will be demonstrating his master work. The significant interest in the arts in Byron Shire is epitomised by the army of volunteers who throw themselves into organising the festival each year. It is a symbiotic process – without them the writers wouldn’t have a show; without the willingness of the writers to turn up, there would be no outlet for the volunteers’ fervour. For the casual participant, there is every reason to be grateful for the writers’ and volunteers’ efforts. Read the program online at www.byronbaywritersfestival.com.au and get along to what events you can. It’s a once-a-year celebration of the written word, the unique enthusiasm of Byron Shire, and of the intellectual and emotional life of Australia.

Carr pulls away It is testimony to Bob Carr’s determination that he lasted so long at the top and resigned when he wanted to. After all, he was an oddball intellectual in a brutish factional climate. While the Right controls NSW Labor we cannot hope that too many MPs of Carr’s wide-ranging intelligence will rise to the top. His legacy is a mixed one; this is to be expected. Even the politicians declared great by history made bad mistakes as well as had stunning triumphs. One cannot expect anything of greater worth from Carr’s successor or the Coalition if the voters grow weary enough of Labor. The north coast was both blessed and cursed by Carr. We got expanded national parks and the new Arakwal National Park. On the other hand we lost the rail line through Michael Costa signing off on some bureaucrat’s decision and we got the staggering hubris of the RTA. It is too early to say what Carr’s successor, former health minister Morris Iemma,will mean for the north coast. We can say that yet another change in the health portfolio will mean yet another round of lobbying to try to get the proposed Byron Shire hospital on the capital works program. The more things change…

any years ago when I asked Neville W r a n w hy h e wanted to be premier of New South Wales when his vision for the place seemed limited to the improvement of outdoor eating places, his answer was brief and to the point: ‘To keep the other buggers out,’ rasped Nifty. And I suspect if you asked his successor and protégé Bob Carr the same question, when you subtracted the waffle about the honour of leading Australia’s most vital state and the trust reposed in him by his wonderful colleagues and constituents, the answer would be pretty similar. For the last couple of years at least, Carr seems to have been getting progressively more bored with the job, and what flashes of interest he has shown have been strictly limited to the city of Sydney. In the bush, and in recent times in the towns as well, he has been perceived as arrogant and aloof, almost contemptuous of the electorate. His urbanity, once one of his great assets, seemed simply self-indulgent as the trains stopped running, the hospitals overflowed and a drought crippled the countryside. His decision to quit while he was still ahead was undeniably smart politics, but he has left his hapless heir, the barely visible Morris Iemma, with an awful lot of repair work to do in the 20 months before the next election. And the fact that Iemma was installed by the faceless apparatchiks of Sussex Street against the clear wishes of both the parliamentary party and the public is not exactly a flying start. Carr, of course, doesn’t see it that way. While he lists

some solid achievements in education and conservation (and one should not forget the courageous decision to open a supervised drug injecting centre) he appears to gain the most satisfaction simply from having presided over a long-running and largely scandal-free government – in other words, from winning elections. This is, of course, the most crucial talent a politician can have: if you don’t win office, you can’t do anything. But there are those of us who wish that, having

lexander Downer wants us all to be really, truly, proud and grateful for his untiring efforts which, he assures us, have singlehandedly procured Australia an invitation to the East Asian summit meeting in October.

Such lesser beings are all right for the

South Australia’s Don Dunstan, whom Carr belittles as a bit of a show pony, was both a successful politician and a great reformer. Bob Carr will be remembered more for his record ten years in office than for any great benefits he brought to society. His political epitaph might be similar to that the Earl of Rochester wrote for that merry monarch Charles II: Here lies our sovereign lord the king Whose promise none relies on. He never said a foolish thing Nor ever did a wise one. And of course, here on the north coast, Bob Carr will always be the bastard who took our train away.

routine tasks, like booking suitably prestigious cars and hotel rooms or mending the ladders in fishnet stockings, but when there’s real work to be done, there can be absolutely no substitute for The Honourable Lord Alexander John Gosse Downer, KCMG (pending). Okay, now back to reality. There was only ever one obstacle to Australia receiving an invitation, and it was John Howard’s petulant refusal to sign a regional non-aggression pact -- the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation, as the ASEAN nations, the hosts of the summit, called it. Actually Howard was never all that keen on the summit anyway, because (a) it was Asian and (b) it didn’t include America, and was therefore by definition worthless. But even when

he was persuaded that it was a Good Idea, he was damned if he was going to sign any treaty, especially one that suggested he wasn’t allowed to make a pre-emptive strike against the neighbours anytime he (or more importantly Washington) felt like it. There was, of course, an easy way around this, as both Japan and South Korea, countries with similar ties to the United States, had already demonstrated; sign the treaty, but add the proviso that it should not be taken to abrogate any prior treaty obligations we might have, meaning ANZUS. But Howard remained pigheaded: even if the ASEAN treaty had no practical effect, a non-aggression pact was a silly, old-fashioned idea, and he didn’t like it and he wasn’t going to sign it and that was that. The ASEAN nations dug their collective toes in. They wanted Australia to attend – even the formerly recalcitrant Malaysians agreed that the time had come to include the big white ocker from the south. But Howard had to acknowledge that it was their summit, and agree to their terms. And eventually, with no good grace, he did just that; but he took a lot of convincing. And the man who did most of the convincing was none other than the aforementioned Lord Downer. So in a funny sort of way he is right; it was through his efforts that we got the invitation. He deserves a round of applause, but in deference to the Asians, we’ll make it the sound of one hand clapping. We wouldn’t want success to spoil him.

Bin grateful Thank you, Byron Council, for our new garbage and recycling service. It’s a step in the right direction. There’s more, of course, on my wish list but it’s recognition of needs of the rate payers of the community, and this household is very grateful for that recognition. D Hammond

Great art form I couldn’t help noticing a slight tone of contempt in film reviewer John Campbell’s use of the phrase ‘graphic novels (ie comics)’in his Sin City review, and as an avid consumer of this great art form I thought it needed some defence. The term graphic novel is a valid and accurate description of the power of this medium. The stories that can be told are limited only by the conventions of prejudice against it, and it has seen some amazingly powerful works in recent years; for example, the two volume epic of Maus by Art Spiegelman, a translation of his father’s holocaust survivor experience; the angst-ridden post-apocalyptic noir of David Boring by Daniel continued overleaf

A lot at stake in holiday letting Q As a business owner who has been involved in service provision in the holiday letting area for the last 17years I feel I know the industry fairly well. Of course it is necessary to address the genuine concerns of local residents re noise, parking, garbage etc. The only way that this can happen is that holiday properties are registered and given a brief by Council as to what is required to operate a holiday let. The problems that are apparent now have arisen mainly from a huge inux of tourists over the past ďŹ ve or six years and operators without guidelines and experience to handle the problems. The only way to deal with this is to make it mandatory for all holiday houses to be let through local real estate agents who have the legal right to take bonds and deal with problems of noise etc. With adequate commissions agents could enforce strict limits on the number of people allowed in each property and employ enough staff and security to keep an eye on their holiday tenants. Our local real estate agents have all been involved in the industry since the very beginning and are professional enough to understand the issues and deal with them. If Jan Barham’s concerns are genuine about our community perhaps she needs to talk to the hundreds of cleaners, maintenance staff, service providers and property managers that are employed in this industry, let alone property owners, and find out how they are feeling right now. In my business alone two full time jobs would be lost. This issue can be resolved successfully without

One can only imagine the pressure she now faces from owners of illegal housing, the ďŹ rms that book these illegal lettings and those that sell alcohol to the party animals that stay in them. Three cheers for the Mayor. It is lonely at the top, especially when there are angry and powerful forces attacking your decisions. We have waited a long time for a Mayor that would do this. We owe it to her to show our support. Robert Waldersee

Clowes (also the author of the comic Ghost World which was made into a movie and Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron which out-lynchs David Lynch); the pathos-ridden everyday observations of Harvey Pekar’s American Splendour; and the 2001 Guardian prize for Literature winning Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth by Chris Ware, a heart-breaking (and eyepopping) tale of a daydreaming social outcast’s reunion with his long estranged father. This medium in the right hands has the potential to surpass that of contemporary literature, so please have a look at these works before you so readily dismiss the comic book as simply just adolescent super-hero fantasies for boys. (Maus and David Boring are available from the library). David Brauchli

the Splendour in the Grass concert was a nightmare rolling across the plains of Tyagarah and Myocum, sending low frequency pressure waves right in to my ear drums. Sleep was impossible. Byron police said they would pass my complaint to a hotline and I would ‘probably hear from them in a couple of days’. Great. No one was willing to turn the noise down. We who lay in bed with pillows over our heads could go to hell. Twitchy animals would just have to wear the racket. If Byron seriously wants to be an entertainment centre then it’s time the promoters, Council and business interests in the Shire put up the money and built a proper soundproof centre to cater for such concerts. The excuses that ‘it’s only one night’ or ‘local business needs the money’ do not provide any logical or proper reason to pollute this community with noise. Council needs to look at its legal obligations under the Noise Act and to take note of the legitimacy of class actions in these situations. Any suggestion that these kinds of concerts should be moved to Tyagarah is going to create more nightmares, unacceptable noise levels and community anger. If Byron is to be the concert capital of the east coast then proper facilities must be built. The community should not be held hostage in this way.

road and continuing to The Piggery backpackers. When is the Council and the backpackers going to look at the lighting problems there and also address the road safety issues that are current and onging, with pedestrians walking on the roads at all times day and night? Surely a bit of lighting in the right places would alleviate security issues near the the rails and and a walkway cycleway to the backpackers would address the other problems. I live at Skinners Shoot and everyday I see solutions to these problems that would be in the interests of all in the community and for visitors but still noone acts. Does it require a rape or assault or for someone to be run down for us to act? M Bickley

Cool pool

together

I don’t know Kristy Bryant but would like to reply to her or his letter from last week’s Echo. The Thursday pool comp at the Brunswick pub is, and has been for a long time, regarded as the best run pool comp on the north coast. I have played there every week since 2000 and the only abuse I’ve suffered was not from the young but from a very drunk older woman. So let’s face it Kristy, if you go to a pub you are going to find intoxicated people but I’d rather be in a pub full of drunks in Brunswick Heads, Australia, than on a bus in London with some religious fanatic.

Fruity questions Just a few questions to the person who stole all our kiwi fruit. Did you manage to do the whole crop by yourself

or did you enlist others, perhaps your family, to help? How did it feel to enter our driveway, organise the boxes for the collection, load the car not knowing if we might return? Has the money from the sale gone to help your children as they were desperately in need or perhaps your aged parent who needed medical help? And lastly will you come back again next year as we would really like to beat you to it as they are after all ours?

behaviour be, in part, an instinctive attempt to postpone the days of reckoning? As surely as the worm is in the bud, the punishment is in the crime. Finally, Stephen mentioned Villawood. I agree we need tougher border protection. But it’s not the desperate souls in leaky boats we need to keep out. Adrian Gattenhof

The scouring of the Shire The socio-economic cleansing of Byron Shire is almost complete. Over the past decade a concerted effort has been made to attract ‘a better class of people’ to the area, without any consideration for the consequences. Low income members of the community have been assailed by escalating rents and neither government nor private industry have made any attempt to address the issue of affordable housing. Council’s own Affordable Housing Committee’s recent submission for the use of public land alongside the train line in Mullumbimby has been rejected in favour of a new supermarket. Commercial imperatives have also taken priority in our crown reserve caravan parks, forcing low income families to camp elsewhere.

Few estate agents or property owners have lost a moment’s sleep inflicting rent hikes or evicting low income residents. The neo-cons’ obsession with the ‘user pays’ doctrine and the impact of GST have impoverished many in the community who are unable to afford the most basic services, including health and dental needs. Some can’t afford food. Despite the rhetoric, welfare payments are far from generous and have remained stagnant for over a decade. Only onerous obligations have multiplied. Wages and conditions for casualised part time workers in Byron and beyond are appalling and getting worse. A plethora of rules and regulations, from overnight parking to busking, have targeted the low income sector

and restricted housing and employment opportunities. In Brunswick Heads, we’ve considered setting up a refugee camp for single parents at Torakina and need funding for grief counselling, we’ve had to say goodbye to so many good people. The diaspora of low income residents has found no Valhalla elsewhere. People have scattered in all directions, no one knows what’s happened to them and few care. In Bosnia, they called it ethnic cleansing and sent in the UN. In Zimbabwe and China evicting squatters has lead to international outrage. In Byron Shire, socioeconomic purging is considered progress, and the human casualties are soon forgotten.

from the USA to Wiltshire, England. Have a read of www.lovely. clara.net/education.html if you’re not convinced already. Or even if you are. Yes, there are plenty of ‘hoaxed’ circles being created now.Those of extra-terrestrial origins are very few and far between nowadays, but those that there have been are truly

phenomenal. Freddy will be on a speaking tour in Australia in the coming months, with the nearest event to be held at Robina Community Centre on the Gold Coast on September 29. Details are on his website. Maybe someone should drag him along to Byron!

Smoking laws

Michele Grant

Ocean Shores

I have been reading and observing at certain venues the new compulsory smoke free areas being rolled out throughout NSW. Many pubs are sending smokers in to the room of doom, the poker machine rooms. How convenient to trap one lot Tim Summers of addicts and try to get Edinburgh them addicted to another

pernicious and potentially life threatening activity, gambling. It truly sucks and frankly I think poker machines should be banned from all pubs and smoking should only be allowed in outdoor areas, if you don’t have an outdoor area then tough. Having said this I do believe all beaches should be smoke free, hard to police but at least a disincentive for some. I also would like to know if venues would take any responsibility by providing ashtrays outside their doors? In Sydney, large office blocks police their smokers by sending them off their private property and leaving smokers to trash council footpaths, gutters and eventually our waterways. I also wonder if Binya Butts will still be offered to the dying breed of smokers, it is after all our right to kill ourselves providing we don’t take others with us, trash the land or create an extra burden on our health services. Part time, ‘social’ and giving up smoker, Tobin Saunders

It’s also a satire on Australian politics, with an unusual perspective on the sometimes-tedious life of an opposition backbencher, where the factions thrive. (Don’t expect any backbencher you know to admit to any comparisons).

Melissa Lucashenko reviews Rainswayed Night by Max Ryan. ‘Publishers shake their heads at poets,’ said Judith Wright. But we don’t, is the ďŹ erce cry from Dangerously Poetic, our own homegrown poetry furnace. DPs latest book is Rainswayed Night by Max Ryan, who ‘imagines himself as being from Newcastle’ but is really ‘on extended leave in New Brighton’. (Sounds like a local to me). Undeterred by drought or the more recent flooding rains, Max has put together an impressive bunch of poems in a clear, powerful voice. Many are reections on lost love – that poetic perennial – while others are his response to surviving a nearfatal car accident. Another strong thread running through the collection is the experience of Westerners in India. In Shepherd’s Hut, Triund, Max sees a jumble of boulders as:

As Murray puts it, ‘In certain respects a member of parliament is like a doctor, only less useful.’ Murray’s not a great one for working hard so if he can’t solve his constituents’ problems, there’s no mileage in busting his chops. Murray gives a scathing commentary on life under a government motivated by money, mateship and secrecy. ‘A cult of personality surrounded the Premier. The smirking bully was king and FuckYou was the ofďŹ cial ideology. The public interest was a bankrupt notion in the heads of fools.’ But don’t be turned off by thinking that Fishy Business is a political tract. On the contrary, it’s good fun. Maloney has a great turn of phrase and he draws some wonderfully distinctive portraits. Dudley Wilson, a leading business identity and a good mate of the government, is easily identiďŹ able by his bulldog jowls and his tragic blow-dr ied hair. Alan Bunting, the very junior National Party member for the Mallee, is a genial, slightly tubby thirty-year old who owes his seat to the depths of his father’s pockets. Shane Maloney has an idiosyncratic Australian voice and in Murray Whelan he’s created an engaging and refreshingly irreverent protagonist. And for Whelan fans, the novel’s surprise ending hints that there may be another adventure headed Murray’s way.

turns of phrase to do so, as in The Hexham Flood, where “The sky got washed away� and: I saw the piebald horse go down, its nostrils seethed for hard dry land then its eyes turned to water. Rainswayed Night shows that Max Ryan is a local poet of considerable promise and one who deserves a wider audience. Congratulations to him on a strong collection, and to Dangerously Poetic for its ongoing efforts to preserve the poetic and the local, in a world that sometimes seems hell-bent on eliminating both. Q Rainswayed Night will be launched at the writers festival on Friday at 2pm. For full festival program details, visit www.byronbaywritersfestival.com.au.

Losing the freedom to annoy

B

ob Carr called me from London two weeks ago to praise to the skies the Henry IV Par ts 1 and 2 starring Michael Gambon as Falstaff that he said I ‘must see’ and the Hedda Gabler which he called ‘a revelation’. I therefore suspect that his was an RSC-led resignation born of his yearning, always thwarted, to spend his days in Sydney and his nights in London, brain-deep in ‘the best theatre there is’. Any thought that he is ‘angling’ for an ambassadorship or a Frank Lowy consultancy or a tardy tilt at the Lodge is addled and foolish. He is fifty-eight, with a bad back (from a fall while rock-climbing) and a need to get on with the list of Great Novels Gore Vidal gave him eight years ago, and his own voracious reading in US, Chinese and Russian history. His political professionalism in the face of these mountainous, quiet passions speaks for itself. He is already two years older than Lincoln ever got to be and, in Falstaff’s words, ‘we have heard the chimes at midnight, Master Shallow’ and old time is still a-flying.

History would have been different had I got him, as I long tried, to my chiropractor. He tiptoed, like John F. Kennedy, around ferocious crippling pain he wonderfully concealed for perhaps twenty years.

new provisions go to gaol if he visits Australia. Or am I missing something here? An invisible clause in the legislation, perhaps, that says ‘excepting rich white politicians’ or ‘excepting attacks on civilians from helicopter gunships and B-52s’.

How much longer can this Bronze Age babble, this Chicken Little blithering, pass as policy? Jehovah’s Witnesses who promise firestorms from heaven are encouraging, surely, the terrorist faction among the angel hosts. Souther n Baptists who promise hellfire for sodomites are likewise promot-

We still keep Mein Kampf on the shelves of suburban and country town libraries, but won’t let a Muslim cleric say what he’s supposed to say, that the values of the West are sinful, abominable, atrocious and stink in the nostrils of Allah, and will in due course be punished by the Almighty. Fred Nile says much the same thing, threatening the same fiery doom, and yet has been at large these for ty year s, bellowing ungagged, unshackled, his promise of terror and torment. Please let’s begin to join the dots. ‘Freedom of speech’ means freedom of inconvenient, annoying, upsetting speech. It is why the civilised West – or should I say the Former Civilised West? – is better than other, more language-manacled societies. We are free to write in praise, unpunished, of Steve Vizard. Take that away, and we are barbarians too. Oops, it’s gone already. Pity about that.

Articles Belinda Meares examines a locally grown spiritual phenomenon

Sanctuary feeds the soul and supports refugees

T

he atmosphere is reverential but relaxed as 20 or more people gather in a circle every Sunday in Bangalow to celebrate the life of the spirit, the Sanctuary way. That the venue is the Catholic Church Hall is largely a matter of convenience, for the emphasis of this unique spiritual community is eclecticism. Its followers may or may not believe in God in the biblical sense, but they all thirst after universal truths handed down across cultures and across the ages. Sanctuary is a spiritual phenomenon homegrown in Byron Shire. It reflects this community’s alternative character by having no formal hierarchy or membership. It is open to all-comers who want to sing, meditate, give readings and offer prayers in the company of fellow seekers. Some people drop in sporadically; others have been regulars for years. The movement’s longevity is proof of its appeal. It has existed in various guises since the early 1990s and is today stronger than ever, says Alison Mackay, one of its key founders.

A

lison, a local choir leader and celebrant, believes that there is nothing like Sanctuary anywhere else in Australia. She describes it as a spiritual home for people who do not want to ascribe to one particular religion or system of devotional belief, but who prefer to draw on sources of wisdom from all the mystical traditions, as well as from contemporary poets and philosophers. Readings rubbing shoulders might be from Wordsworth or Rumi, Jung or the Dalai Lama, Hildegard of Bingen or Leunig. ‘They all offer inspiration for the mind, heart and soul,’ says Alison. ‘The different traditions are not all saying the

same thing exactly but there are some basic truths about how to live your life, such as paying attention and being present, remembering to be grateful, and reflecting loving kindness.’ Each session is led by one person. This role is open to anyone who is familiar with the Sanctuary format, and who feels confident to lead the ritual. He or she will select readings and chants to prompt deep contemplation on a chosen theme, which could be about Healing the Earth or one’s own Inner Landscape, or any number of matters claiming spiritual inquiry and nurturing. The structure is simple, with eight to ten readings, (drawn by participants from clippings passed around on a plate), and chants arranged in simple harmonies. Meditation and an open prayer session follow, then the formal part of the gathering is over. Socialising after the ceremony is also an honoured Sanctuary tradition. The genesis of Sanctuary began with Alison’s own quest to bring spiritual sustenance back into her life. The daughter of a Methodist minister, she traversed her

twenties rejecting organised religion, yet felt there was a lack of meaningful ritual in her life. The light was reignited when she heard the unconventional Dominican theologian Matthew Fox speak in Sydney in 1993. Expounding a philosophy dubbed ‘Creation Spirituality’, Fox proclaims that God or The Divine resides within all of manifested creation. ‘I identified with everything he said,’ Alison recalls. ‘He was talking about bringing back the feminine side of God, and about having reverence for nature in the way that the Celtic and other native religious traditions do. I recognised there was something in this kind of worship for me.’

A

ware that Byron was a magnet for spiritual seekers, Alison sensed an untapped demand for a nondoctrinaire form of Western spirituality here. She placed an ad in The Echo proposing a Creation Spirituality discussion group, and there was a big response. The musical dimension came soon after with her discovery of Taizé chanting, which is the basis of an ecumenical form of worship that originated in France. Once again through an Echo ad, she gathered people together to learn the chants and from this activity Sanctuary evolved. Since its inception, Sanctuary has moved shelters and metamorphosed several times. The present structure seems to work well, says Alison, because it provides room for people to find their own personal meaning of spirituality. ‘It’s soul food for me,’ agrees Kathryn Boorman, another Sanctuary leader. ‘It’s really a chance to go deep into a stillness that’s shared with a group of people. And I love it when I’m leading the group. I can look everywhere for inspiration.’

Among Kathryn’s favourite sources are the Sufi poets Hafiz and Rumi, who remind us not to take our spirituality too seriously, she says. ‘They say that life isn’t about obeying rules but about celebrating being as alive as you can be.’

P

oet Laura Shore, who lives in Ocean Shores, explains what Sanctuary means for her. Even when she doesn’t manage to make it each time, she says she consciously tunes in at 9.30am every Sunday. ‘The rest of the world is so laden with heaviness and darkness, so to come together energetically as a community in celebration of light is what keeps the week cheerful for me.’ As an extension of its spiritual vocation, Sanctuary from time to time organises support for worthy causes. Recently, some of its members have teamed up with a Lismore-based charity coincidentally of the same name, which raises funds to bring Sudanese refugees into Australia and help them settle in the region. Sanctuary Northern Rivers Inc. was established in Lismore in 2003 on the

model of a similar refugeesupport group already operating in Coffs Harbour. The initiative supports a category of refugees accepted by the Australian government for permanent resettlement in this country, but who are offered only limited official assistance. Each year up to 7000 applicants, mainly long-term residents of refugee camps, receive visas under this category. They are required to pay for their own airfares and have a ‘sponsor’ in Australia. Sadly, without this support many visas lapse, leaving people within a grasp of freedom in desperate circumstances. The Sudanese who are being helped by Sanctuary are from the notoriously dangerous and overcrowded Kakuma camp in northern Kenya. To date, Sanctuary Northern Rivers has helped six families, a total of 39 people, settle in Lismore. This process involves providing an

"

interest-free travel loan, which the recipients pay back into a revolving fund. When they arrive, Sanctuary volunteers help find the refugees accommodation, orient them towards support services such as Centrelink and Medicare, and help the children into schools and adults into training or jobs. Now that several Sudanese families are established, they themselves are sponsoring the new arrivals but need help raising money for airfares. The Sanctuary spiritual group is planning a fundraising trivia night to support the Sudanese refugees on August 20. For more information, contact Alison Mackay on 6685 6827, or email alison.mackay@gmail. com. If you would like to support Sanctuary Northern Rivers directly, call Michael Douglas on 6629 1540, or michael.douglas@bigpond. com.

is pleased to announce its expansion – now including both increased treatment and exercise space. One-on-one Clinical Pilates tuition is now available with Pilates floor classes being offered in the near future. Clinical Pilates is the culmination of evidencebased practice with exercises designed to be most effective using our current clinical knowledge. Clinical Pilates focuses on the control of deep stabilising muscles while working them in unstable positions, so the patients develop dynamic stability and strength (core stability) throughout their whole movement range. Clinical Pilates, in combination with manual therapy, is a useful treatment for people suffering from both acute or recurrent injuries. It assists in challenging the body to recover from injury in a much more dynamic form than has been previously possible. Ocean Shores Physiotherapy’s Nigel Pitman, Manipulative Physiotherapist – offering more ways to feel better, faster.

Back pain can have many causes but one of the most overlooked ones is that arising from the Sacroiliac (SI) joint. This is the joint between the triangular shaped bone at the base of your spine and the two hip bones. This joint has lots of nerve endings as the stresses placed upon it are very important so the body can gain important information for balance. A very effective technique used by Chiropractors is called Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT). This looks at the relationship of the SI joint and hips to the rest of the body and corrects any dysfunction with a speciďŹ c placement of blocks under the pelvis. To make an appointment at Byron Bay Chiropractic with Bruce or Brent please phone us on 6685 8159. We are located at 52 Shirley Street, Byron Bay.

Why do we feel the incessant need to shop? At no time in history have as many people spent their productive hours in pursuit of useless objects not deigned for practical use but meant to impart joy and sense of self. Historically, shopping was something that took place on a ‘need’s basis’. One didn’t hook up the horse and cart and nip out to a primitive Bunnings to marvel at the new range of ploughs. Goods were crafted to last, usually obtained from the manufacturer first hand whose only concept of product branding was what he seared into the flesh of a horse’s arse. There was nowhere for the average consumer to shop until they dropped. I have never read a text which has ever revealed the existence of a Medieval Super Centre featuring stores like Moats R Us. Anna Karenina mightn’t have laid her beautiful head on the tracks if she had the option of an end of Season shoe sale, a Prada

live ivemusic The Go-Betweens were one of my favourite bands back in the eighties. At Uni in Brisbane in the heady days of the mid eighties, the band was heaped with underground cred, with wild woman, Lindy Morrison on drums, Amanda Brown on bass and vocals and Grant McKenna and Robert Foster on guitar, vocals, songwriting and general ambience. The last time I saw them was at Festival Hall with Hoodoo Gurus, some time around ‘88, their sound, curiously unique and much more Brit than Aussie.

Sadly they disappeared into the UK and then into complete obscurity when they split for most of the nineties. But then a strange thing happened. The band (minus Lindy) hooked up again some 12 years after separation and started playing again. This time the reception has been incredibly warm. Maybe the world is finally ready – with the UK’s Guardian giving the only 5 star concert review I have ever seen and crowds presenting them with standing ovations and accolades throughout England and Europe. It’s a melancholic mix, some of their songs like Right Here and Spring Rain, still give me a nostaligic chill. Astoundingly their music really stands the test to time and I think it proves

The other day I was in Sydney and had to pop into the new Westfield for a spot of lunch with an old comrade. It’s a frigging shopping empire. Floors and floors of meaningless stores. Every parking spot was filled. It was only Monday but it appeared that thousands awoke on the first day of the week with their entire bodies pulsating for a purchase.

truly happy. No trackpants have ever filled me with a raison d’étre. I have a cupboard full of clothes, a trillion undies, a billion bras...I, like millions of my card swiping sisters shop for pleasure. It’s shameful. As a Uni student I was a Marxist. (I left after six months because I didn’t like the way they dressed). It’s time we made a stand on rampant consumerism. As a political statement, I am going to opt out on shopping... I just need a new pair of shoes first.

We shop for leisure. Women like Paris Hilton have done nothing but made themselves famous for shopping. Don’t get me wrong. I love shopping, but I’ve never managed to find the blouse that makes me

slingback could have saved the day. Christ never interrupted the sermon on the Mount (just who she was I’ll never know) and said ‘pardon me, I’ve just got to nick into K-Mart and grab some new boxers. These hemp ones are really chafing.’ I suspect the ‘consumer’ is a fairly new entity, previously we were merely people.

SEEING SERENA Canadian newcomer Serena Ryder is blessed with a deeply rich and experienced voice, there is no doubt the future will have her accomplishing great things. Serena is a twenty year old girl who grew up in a small town of about 1500 people in a place called Millbrook, Ontario. There were lots of plaid shirts, lots of rubber boots, lots of Nike. Serena didn’t own any Nike, it was kind of a sad place to be for Serena. Serena had black hair, white make up, black lipstick, Serena was called a witch in Millbrook. But, Serena prevailed. Serena loved to sing. She would sing at baseball games and high school performances and choir performances. According to Serena the main message of her music ‘is for people to understand that we’re all connected and that we all do feel the same things. We all express them in different ways, but the thing about music is that it bursts all bounds of moderation. It’s something that everyone can relate to and you don’t even have to put in into words. It’s not even a song, or a line or anything. Even a melody can make someone feel, “oh yeah, me too, me too. That’s exactly how I feel as well.”

I think that it’s really important for us to know that we’re all connected and I think that’s what music does, for sure.’ Serena Ryder plays the Hotel Great Northern on Thursday along with Renny Field and Friday at the Currumbin SoundLounge

The Utopians get themselves all funked up on Thursday. It’s a grooving big band experience, one that will get your body hippin and your mind freaky flippin. (I can’t stop rhyming today – maybe it’s the sudden onset of the Writer’s Festival, but I seem to be pushing couplets from all of my outlets). If you like your music straight up on the rocks, then you can wash it down on Friday with Bourbon Street, Saturday will have you dancing away those grass stains with Dirty Laundroy and on Sunday arvo, sink a beer and give a cheer for James T, Doc Span and band.

MY WAY OR THE CONWAY Deborah Conway is recognised as one of the country’s most articulate and individual voices, with a career that has encompassed recording, performing and writing songs for over 20 years. Her resonance as a serious contributor in the musical community has remained undiminished

The Black Stars @ Hotel Great Northern, Sunday since her band Do Re Mi topped the charts in 1985 with their song Man Overboard. With each successive project she continues to attract a large and fiercely loyal following and critical acclaim for both her live performances and recorded work. Most recently Conway composed Summertown. ‘We started talking about songs we liked from a pre-electronic era, artists like Simon and Garfunkel, The Mammas and the Pappas, Jimmy Webb, James Taylor and Carole King all came up in our conversation along with many others. We didn’t want to recreate them, but we wanted to evoke that spirit, that approach to song-craft; beautifully realised verses, choruses and bridges that seem to have always belonged together even before they came into being. Also a certain gentleness and warmth that we hadn’t explored seemed like the past was beckoning. We’ve been angst, brittle,

pissed off and depressed, let’s give peace a chance.’ Deborah Conway performs at the Hotel Great Northern on Friday and at Debbie Kruger’s book launch at the Writers Festival on Saturday.

SEEING STARS Byron Bay local rock outfit ‘The Black Stars’ have just returned from Sydney after recording their debut EP with highly acclaimed Australian producer Phil McKellar. Chris Harding was pretty chuffed and went on to say ‘working with Phil was a dream come true, we have been following his work over the years from bands such as Grinspoon, Spiderbait and The Cruel Sea right through to his current work with Ben Gillies’ (of Silverchair) new project Tambalane and Melbourne’s Kisschasy.’ The Black Stars are confident that everything they had hoped to achieve with the recording of their debut EP has come to sonic fruition and

The lineup is trumpet, clarinet, sax (tenor and soprano), nylon string guitar, bass and drum kit.

HEIDI AND SEEKIE Heidi Holland began her career in a totally forgettable Elvis Tribute Show. Strangely cast as a middle aged man in a white jumpsuit with mutton chop sidies, Heidi felt at odds with herself and wondered whether she’d have a performing future. Ten years later she is a graduate of the inaugural College of Country Music (Tamworth), and is currently completing a Bachelor of Contemporary Music and a Graduate Diploma in Education at SCU.

The internationally acclaimed Australian super group, Sirocco perform at the A & I Hall in Bangalow on Saturday as a feature of the Byron Writers Festival. From soft lyrical celtic ute to a raucuous infectious dance beat on didge and Turkish drums, these guys are just like modern Australia – diverse and unique.

bexstar nights

BY POPULAR DEMAND... MORE ON SPLENDOUR BEXSTAR SPLENDOUR WEEKENDER plendour was such a big weekend in Byron. La La hosted Melbourne crew OneLove and Sydney guys Bang Gang; The Great Northern did GT; c-moog had Krafty Kuts, and then got raided... What Da Funk! and the Buddha Bar after party both went allnight! And then there was sunny Splendour in the Grass.

S

FRIDAY The Buddha Bar pre-midnight terrace tunes are from Del Larkin’s Byron Funk Collective. Dave Basek of Junkbeats takes on the Backstage Room and it’s Dave B vs Dave C. Bassix at Coorabell Hall for a chance to see three top local DJs before they each leave Byron for a while. Phil Smart is heading to the States and Burning Man. Nick Taylor is off to Bali again and Noodles’ is planing the move to Sydney. With early support from Skyz and Teapot, at Coorabell Noodles is down to play a rare tech set. Building the house vibe, Phil Smart and Nick Taylor take it through till 2am.

SATURDAY La La Land is merging the Byron house sound with the Gold Coast electro. Byron diva DynaMo is joined by Gold Coast LiveWire DJ Timach, adding an electro-tech edge to the deep house night. Cocos has Scoota back on the upstairs decks after last weekends’ mega sessions, while downstairs is DJ Tulip for the main danceflooor. At c-moog Madhu warms up for Willjay’s deep house mix.

SUNDAY Elsewhere’s Royale isn’t only popular cos it’s open till 5am! Byron’s Rock Hardson and Giv mash-up house, breaks and a dash of disco for the Sunday session crew.

Starting Thursday, Krafty Kuts played a diverse set of tech-house. Far from just a Finger Lickin style, Krafty Kuts crossed genres and saved the breaks till last. Teasing in some classic Krafty productions (and a few of his mates’ tunes) and ending with a skilled show of deck tricks. The DANCE Inc Tipi Circle was first stop at Splendour. And then it seemed hard to ever leave! At 3pm, Puss did draw the local crew away to the Mix-Up tent, where the huge crowd rocked along to the punk-electro sound, followed by DJ Strawberry Syme. Back to the Tipi for Phil Smart’s infectious mix and Pob’s inspired set. Had a look-see at Decoder Ring and Har Mar Superstar, but Queens of the Stone Ages got the main attention-span. From a good position deep inside the tent, the view was enhanced by the electric vibe. Would’ve liked to have checked out Scribe, but the Tipi was demanding the last hour. It was at night that the Tipi shone. The projections decorated the DJ tent and the dancefloor merged into a blur of multicoloured shadows. Onto What Da Funk! One of the better ones at the Arts & Industry Estate venue. Many came for an after-Splendour drink ... and stayed till sunrise. Pob was in a groove, Phil Smart blended it smoothly upwards (then sideways), and Scoota... well he still managed to pump out floorfillers! He’d been on stage with Puss at Splendour, done the Tipi decks, then Cocomangas and then pulled it together for the sunrise set. But everyone’s got to sleep sometime. Breakfast was sunset Sunday at the Tipi Circle. Sean Candy with Whit from Spiderbait on guitar the wake-up call. It rocked. Made it away to the Main Stage for Bloc Party. Worth a look, but from way back in the crowd it was hard to be involved. So back to the Tipi for Jackie Onassid. Then came the surprise sensation. One last walk to the Mix tent for Pnau and it was the star moment of Splendour. The highlight though was the Inferno of Patience. When Clint Hurrell’s tower of branches, garnished with giant Splendour lips, went up in flames. The fire stunt was accompanied by fireworks and fire-performers. A spectacular show against the starry night and festival backdrop. After that, Moby seemed unimpressive. But his AC/DC cover won him the audience. The Hilltop Hoods were waving their arms in the air and the Bang Gang Lounge bar was filling up for the late session. The Tipi closed with funky psy-trance in a suitable Byron doof style. The dancefloor could’ve gone allnight. Some of us did. La La Land had a special 3am licence and GT as a surprise guest. The Buddha Bar official Splendour party rocked till 5am and sunrise from Skinners Shoot completed the magical Byron weekender.

POETRY A POEM, A BEER AND A GOOD LIE DOWN On the Writers Festival weekend the ‘Writers at the Rails’ will be celebrating its 13th anniversary of spoken word readings and performances in Byron Bay. Over the years scores of local and visiting poets and writers have taken advantage of this great local poetic talkfest; from novices to seasoned performers, from the comedic to the absolutely tragic, the good, the bad and the rather-be-ugly. In fact, it was dear

Monsieur Hallett who gave me some of my early spots around town, a prelude to the monster you are now lumbered with. As always the afternoon will feature a smorgasboard of open and invited readings. The featured poets on this anniversary afternoon will be long-time local favourite Christine (from the jungles of Lillian Rock) Strelan, who is on the verge of a new novel; and one of the poetry guests of the Writers Festival, Queensland writer Graham Nunn. Graham is current Director of the Queensland Poetry Festival and also founder of the performance group ‘SpeedPoets’. Sunday after 2pm. New and visiting poets always welcome.

PICK THE ASSASSINATION OF RICHARD NIXON Without presenting itself as an apologia for acts of terror, this movie makes an acute and much-needed appraisal of the circumstances that can conspire to drive a person to utter desperation and explosive rage. It is based on the true story of Samuel Bicke (Sean Penn), a man dangerously disillusioned with the American dream, trapped in a demeaning job where he is intimidated, psychologically and physically, by his boss (Jack Thompson) and at the point of despair following the rejection by his wife (Naomi Watts). Bicke’s whole existence is on the razor’s edge, and you are on it with him. Ratcheted-up by television footage from the Nixon presidency that is galling in its similarity to today’s newspeak and bald-faced lying, the tension becomes unyielding as this alienated little man’s life falls apart. Haunted throughout by the score’s reference to Leonard Bernstein’s ‘Somewhere’, the sorry tale ends in sudden and genuinely shocking violence. Engrossing and moving, with Penn at his twitchy best.

MONSTER IN LAW

PEACHES Before you can let go of the past you ďŹ rst need to know all about it. Steph (Emma Lung), half Vietnamese, was born as her parents were killed in a car accident twenty years ago and now works in the South Australian canning factory where they met. The mother’s diary explains her background whilst the factory is going bust. Her boss, Alan Taylor (Hugo Weaving), is the key to the events of then and now. Awaiting the fated affair between them, the story ags mid-stream but does not lose its sense of portent. The mandatory golden sex scene is a here-we-go-again one, but the compatible pairing of the two leads dodges the clichĂŠ of older man and younger woman. Lung occasionally seems out of her depth, but the camera loves her and, in a memorable debut, it is she and a sympathetic Weaving who give the ďŹ lm its heartbeat. Without noticing it, you become enmeshed in their story and when Steph’s breakout comes it is both taut and rewarding. John Campbell

There is a wonderful early scene where Viola (Jane Fonda), having been just told that she is to be axed as host of a long-running talk show, is interviewing a sixteenyear old chart-topper. The penny drops for Viola and, confronted with her own outdatedness, she goes for the bimbo’s jugular, metaphorically and literally. It is the highlight of this brightly coloured but standard prince-and-thepauper MO. Jennifer Lopez is Charlie, a temp whom Viola believes is not worthy of her son’s hand in marriage. As Kevin, Michael Vartan is dripping wet while JayLO, the future daughter-in-law, not so much acts as pulls faces and mannerisms in a performance that cranks up the annoyance factor to the max. It is Fonda’s class alone that saves the movie as she goes about her shrewish way in an attempt to sabotage the nuptials. It all grinds along to the inevitable gorgeous garden wedding and, gosh, you would not believe who ends up catching the bride’s bouquet. John Campbell

Echo’s longest-serving member joins the book launchers

W

e crossed the straits that Lord Byron had swum for a wager, and Leander for a beautiful woman, in a very unromantic ferry. On the other side of the Hellespont we headed for the Turkish capital Ankara where we stopped in order to get visas for Iran. Strictly speaking these were not necessary, as we had been told that visas would be issued on the border, but as it turned out the time was not wasted. We arrived at the TurkishIranian border at nightfall and decided to make camp before entering Iran. There was a large coach parked on our side of the border with a party of very frustrated tourists. Their driver had believed the visas-at-the-border story and they had arrived without the magic stamp. He expected to pay some small bribe for the visas, but the border guard wanted to exact a different tribute. He was asking for one of the women on the coach to sleep with him in return for their visas to Iran. The outrage of the passengers was comical, as was the calculation on the faces of some of the women. After lots of inconclusive talk they went back to their bus for the night, and we pitched our tents and turned in. In the morning the coach was gone. We assumed it had turned back to Ankara for the visas, but the border guard smiled and pointed up the road towards Tabriz. A couple of hours later we overtook the coach; the passengers were all laughing and waving and we wondered who had made the supreme sacrifice for the common good. There was a camaraderie on the road among the pilgrims and the tourists. As we moved further into the east the vehicles of long distance travellers like us became much fewer and more easily identifiable and we would exchange information as we

On Sunday at the Byron Bay Writers Festival Michael McDonald and Mungo MacCallum will launch David Lovejoy’s autobiography Between Dark and Dark. The book describes David's youthful spiritual odyssey but it also covers his partnership with Nicholas Shand and the genesis of The Echo, together with a fascinating portrait of the newspaper’s turbulent first ten years. Diana Gribble AM, co-founder of the publishing house McPhee-Gribble, writes on the cover: ‘This is caught up from town to town. Most of the serious travelling was done in VW Kombis, which were probably more reliable than our old Commer; at least they didn’t require constant top ups of valuable water for their coolant. From time to time on the road to Tehran we would see two couples travelling in a red Kombi. Then one morning we passed a heap of tangled red wreckage by the side of the road. There was no one there except some children who didn’t speak English but at the next town we learned that the Kombi had collided head on with a truck and all the occupants were dead. We stopped that night in sombre mood on the southern edge of the Caspian Sea. Even then the water was retreating because on its northern shores the Soviet Union had created a massive irrigation scheme to grow cotton. The original border of the lake was a sandy rim where we made camp; then we had to walk for half a mile through grassy dunes to reach the water itself. It was worth the effort to watch the stars emerge and shine above the huge inland sea.

I

n Tehran we booked into a cheap hotel for the luxury of a bathroom. Glen went to buy a sheepskin jacket while George and Patrick went scouting for drugs. They wanted to get a substantial shipment of hash back to their friends in England, but walking along the street saying ‘Hashish?’ to

a memoir packed with extraordinary characters, written by a man who grew up in England feeling, like his hero Dylan, “on the outside of whatever side there was”, and who took off on a voyage of self-discovery. 'David Lovejoy has a story to tell that is in turn astounding and moving – and always full of surprises.’ To give readers a flavour of the book we have chosen an extract from David’s account of his journey to India en route for Australia. Peter and Glen were against this: we had three women with us, and while Engineer’s behaviour had been impeccable, who knew what white slave trade plans lurked behind his inscrutable brow? To the dismay of Jeanette and Pamela, who knew a good offer when they heard one, ungraciously we insisted on taking our leave and returning to our rat-infested, flea-tormented hotel. According to Iranian custom we were probably unforgivably rude, but Engineer remained as polite as ever.

A

respectable Iranians did not further the plan. However, their hit and miss method of negotiation did link them up with a Tehranian who could provide opium. The man said he was an engineer and that we should call him ‘Engineer’ as all his family, dependents, clients and neighbours did. Engineer lived in a select part of town in one of those middleeast houses which have blank walls on the outside concealing a beautiful internal court-

yard garden. With amazing hospitality he lavished food and drink on us eight dishevelled travellers and after we had feasted brought out the opium hookah. No doubt the dose was mild, since we all retained our senses and the use of our limbs, unlike the popular image of Chinatown opium dens. Then Engineer insisted that rather than go back to our hotel we should spend the night at his house and smoke some more opium.

few days later in Mashhad, not far short of the Afghanistan border, the van refused to start. There was something wrong with the ignition circuitry, that much we could determine. We sat down to have a smoke and consider our options. A curious crowd gathered, including lots of children jeering and pointing. George, ever affable, offered the nearest child a cigarette. It was dashed from his hand by the child as if it was an offering from the devil. ‘Ramadan, Ramadan,’ said an adult pushing through the crowd. ‘Smoke forbidden till sundown.’ We hastily complied with the local religious ordinance. We had lost track of the days in an unfamiliar calendar. During the ninth month Islam forbids food or drink during the day – and the mullahs had interpreted this rule to include tobacco. Our rescuer looked at the engine compartment in the

van. ‘Can fix motor,’ he said. An hour later most of the engine seemed to be in pieces on the cabin floor. Grimy and concentrated, the mechanic reached into a pocket and took out a cigarette stub. Despite Ramadan he lit it while peering closely at the half dismantled carburettor. The flames spread quite slowly and while the rest of us watched as if in a trance, Glen shouted, ‘Stop that fire!’, tore off his new sheepskin jacket and smothered the engine with it. His quick thinking saved the vehicle, but the coat was reduced to a singed and oily rag. The engine expert, minus eyebrows, demanded payment for his hour’s work but we were too angry to see any merit in his claim. Fortunately, Peter had not found the mechanic’s ministrations convincing and had gone to find a real garage. We were able to push the van there and have it repaired. In the fire and confusion the ignition key had been lost, or maybe removed to teach us proper religious observance, so for the rest of our journey the Commer had to be hotwired when we started or stopped the engine. This merely involved twisting together or untwisting a pair of leads under the dashboard, but the lack of the key meant we could not lock the vehicle, or leave it unattended, as the loss of several small items of luggage quickly taught us. From Mashhad we crossed the Afghanistan border and came to Herat. From there the road (built by the Soviets as foreign aid to the Afghani government and destroyed by them during the later invasion) did not go directly east to Kabul, but turned south and made a long sweep back up to the capital… ■ Between Dark and Dark is on sale ($22.95) at the Writers Festival, and is also available from Echo offices.

Speaking in tongues comes naturally

A

ccording to author Debbie Kruger, music is very much about a sense of place. Whether it’s created in a bedroom in St Kilda, or a Sydney studio, it speaks to where we are, how we felt and who we were. In her extraordinary anthology of Australian music Songwriters Speak, Ms Kruger lays bare conversations with 45 of our best songwriters, starting with Joy McKean (Slim Dusty’s wife who wrote most of his hits) and concluding with the understated charm of Kasey Chambers. For Kruger, the last four years have really been a labour of L-O-V-E. ‘What inspired Songwriters Speak was an American book called Songwriters on Songwriting, by a guy called Paul Zollo and it was exactly this kind of book – an in depth Q and A anthology of American singers – it really was like living through the history of American music through the songwriters.’ Kruger’s book has an impressive and comprehensive list of interviewees that includes contributors as diverse as Rolf Harris and John Williamson to Daniel Johns and Nick Cave. ‘Interviewing Nick was daunting, not that I was frightened. I admitted to him that I was a Nick Cave virgin. I was acutely aware that he wouldn’t suffer fools lightly. ‘I had to learn how to like Nick Cave, I read his biography, I went on this journey and went to him with six pages of questions. His assistant kept saying I could only have an hour with him, but because the questions was so intelligent he gave me three hours!’ Debbie Kruger is a girl who does her homework. Something that delighted the songwriters she spoke with. ‘The guys from Midnight Oil said you really have to do your homework, that’s the point to this book. When I found the publisher, Limelight, one of them said, it’s

not just about the songwriters, it’s about the art of the interview. I’m doing a session at the Writers Festival on just that. ‘ ‘Rob Hirst said to me at the end of my three hours: “You ask good questions�,

They have the opportunity to use their questions as a key that opens the door to the treasure of revelation, to reveal the sources of inspiration, or they can stand outside, buzzing on the bell, but not being let in.

‘Interviewing Nick was daunting, not that I was frightened. I admitted to him that I was a Nick Cave virgin. I had to learn how to like Nick Cave, I read his biography, I went on this journey and went to him with six pages of questions. His assistant kept saying I could only have an hour with him, but because the questions was so intelligent he gave me three hours!’ and Mark Seymour also said to me, “Thank you for asking intelligent questions.â€? They are so used to people who haven’t done their research – or the people that do interviews ask predictable questions like having a chat with Nick Cave and asking about his heroin addiction or PJ Harvey‌’ In a sense, the interview is a test for the interviewer.

‘Nick’s (Cave) music was a great revelation to me, even his most gothic songs are really funny – the guy has very deep relationships – a guy like that loves, he loves God, he loves his family, he’s full of love.. ‘And there were other revelations, like John Williamson. We would all think, what a dag, he’s a friend of John Laws, he’s probably right

wing‌ but he is the most green song writer of the bunch‌ he’s such an environmentalist, he’s just very Australian, very iconic, so it’s easy to make the wrong sort of assumptions.’ Songwriters Speak echoes Deb’s deep love of music history, and her penchant for music nostalgia. It was Deb’s energy and enthusiasm for her subjects that really made the book happen. ‘I had a bunch of interviews under my hat, because I had been working for APRA. Both Andrew Farriss and Graeham Goble wrote me letters of endorsement. I sat there with my list, and I’d go, today I’ll email James Reyne, and he rang me straight away and said thank you for including me, and then there are those who are very famous, and it’s a matter of going through their people and in a few instances I just kept knocking on doors. ‘The great thing about Songwriters Speak is that you get to hear the songwriters’ voices, some are more literate than others, some are better at articulating the process of songwriting, but I think I have succeeded in capturing their voices. ‘But it was hard, I worked on it for four years. I did a lot of interviews. I didn’t want to do phone interviews, I wanted them all face to face. I would record a four hour interview and it would take me a week to transcribe it. I look at it now and I’m amazed. ‘There were lots of songwriters that I wanted in the book like Michael (Hutchence), Steve Gilpin, Marc Hunter, Paul Hewson, Ted Mulry. I didn’t want to lose any more before I wrote it down. I felt it was my calling to do this.’ Debbie Kruger launches Songwriters Speak (along with CD) at the Byron Bay Writers Festival on Sunday. Joining her at the launch will be Rob Hirst and Deborah Conway. For more information about the creation of this important anthology, go to www.songwritersspeak.com.

LIBRA: Don’t let this week’s dominant, dynamic energy pressure you into something that doesn’t feel right – especially if it involves a significant financial outlay. Postpone big decisions till midmonth, and let the Libran genius for enlisting the right assistance be your guide.

CAPRICORN: If something or someone hurts you this week, they’re not likely to know it because you’re not likely to show it. But the more you toughen up, the further away from feelings you stray, your own and other people’s – and they’re the life line to who you really are.

ing – to yourself and everyone involved. Abate rage by letting a physical activity absorb and soak it up (exercise, walking, gardening, working – but not driving), while your mind processes it, and this week could be a major turning point‌

LEO: Leos are born to be extraordinary, and this week you’ll show others a fantastic time by infusing everyday events with your signature brand of fabulousness. Even if that means straining your back – for which, if it doesn’t respond to massage and heat, get treatment.

GEMINI: Not exactly a flutter ’n flit week for you Geminian butterflies – more the bubble, boil and trouble variety. Deal with overbearing types by miming vague agreement till they go away – but with misunderstanding endemic it’s still important to listen, even if you hate what you hear.

SCORPIO: This is a period for making connections, and your ability to read people will be an asset. Though if someone oversteps the mark and pushes you too far you’ll reaffirm your boundaries and make a stand this week – which no-one does quite like a Scorpio.

AQUARIUS: You won’t want to be told what to do or how to do it this week, which is so enthusiastically creative even bombastic, dogmatic people won’t dent your bouncy resilience. Don’t go overboard though with rash promises you could lose interest in following through.

VIRGO: Don’t let overpowering steamrollers rock your confidence. You’re already too critical of your limitations and weaknesses – this week wants you acknowledging your skills and talents, recognising your expertise and strengths and sincerely celebrating your gorgeousness.

SAGITTARIUS: You’ll be happy to hear this week looks good for travel, exploration and tearing open the envelope of change‌ Though if you’re heading into any kind of compromising situation, be very clear about what you’re getting out of it.

PISCES: You’re in mega romantic mode at the moment but must it be dramatic as well? Regular, ordinary love isn’t good enough? Appreciate what you have this week rather than longing for the impossible – and add some extra spice to your everyday amour.

TAURUS: Anger’s damag-

0H " ĂŠEĂŠ/1 -

CANCER: This week hurtles you out of the Crabcave into the social whirl and swirl to meet people with interesting information, a new financial opportunity, a professional contact or beneficial business proposition. Also the rude, crude and obnoxious – but why take that personally?

top of things right now you’re a bit driven, but power steering’s fraught with frustration this week – and rethinking some of your plans is actually more important than moving forward. Working with others will be the week’s biggest challenge.

Nothing ďŹ ner than food, sunshine and drink, not necessarily in that order.

It was last Sunday this truth came home to me, like an epiphany on greased roller blades, when we were all arrayed on the clubhouse deck, soaking in the tender ministrations of Old Sol as he bathed the Myocum hillsides in his warm beneďŹ cence. The night had been spent in an MDMA binge of the ďŹ rst water, chaps sitting for hours in front of a patchouli-scented candle or quietly ‘dooďŹ ng’ – I believe that is the current lingo – to Bach’s sublime ‘Sheep May Safely Graze’ played by chamber musicians we had shipped in from Hamburg for the occasion. The appetite-suppressing qualities of the drug were wearing off and we were stimulating our tastebuds with vodka, lemon and ginseng spritzers.

It was at that moment, like an angel at the annunciation of Gina Lollobrigida’s decolletage, that Chef arrived with lunch. He had prepared a roast of currawong in a badinage of peppered new potatoes, arranged delicately on a calculus of New Zealand greens. We moved on from the spritzers to the perfect accompaniment, a 1997 Byron Club Bust Overexcited Sauvignon Blanc, with just a hint of capsicum and an afterpalate of raspberry coulis, which distends the nostrils like those of a racehorse on cocaine. Halfway through my meal, a mere two sips of wine down my throat, I experienced a timeless moment, like the ones that chappie Aldous

Huxley was always rabbiting on about. The world was a wordless poem, the leaves of the trees prayer ags for answered prayers and the very air exhilarating as a sweet daemon’s perfumed breath. One could put it down to any number of things but chief among them were food, sunshine and drink. When the quotidian began to move again, like a beetle through molasses, I asked Tosser Digby if he would be partaking of the writers festival on the coming weekend. ‘Too right,’ he said, staring intently at the sunlight through his fork tines. ‘I shall be off to that memoir-writing workshop with Dexter Premanand. Stuck halfway through mine, can’t quite make the transition from the Upper Zambezi to Mrs Mavis Lobpocket’s Nude Tennis Squad.’ ‘Read a book once,’ said Abbotsleigh, and toppled forward into his currawong. Sanders the butler deftly had a couple of valets prevent Abbotsleigh suffocating – though the man once spent a night in a vat of Bavarian custard, but that is a long story – and arrange him in a nearby hammock where he peacefully snored the afternoon away. The rest of us, satiated by just the right amount of a good thing, stared silently out to sea, enjoined in the happy communion of the very rich and well-fed.

Cooking with Eki

Mullumbimby

Vi c t o r i a C o s f o rd Anyone living in the Byron Shire for at least four years will be familiar with the name Eki and the superb Japanese restaurant Misaki he ran. Sold some time back, it is still fondly remembered and missed by many people; its void has not been filled. And yet its sale freed Eki up to concentrate on other food-related passions of his: the development of a range of marinades and sauces; private catering; and cooking classes. It was to one of the latter that I drove myself one Saturday of sunshine, down to Lennox Head where Eki and his family live in a suburban home possessing a state-of-the-art kitchen. We were to learn how to make Miso Soup, Sushi Rice, a Sushi Rice Salad with ‘tin tuna’ and Chicken Teriyaki, and after a welcoming cup of green tea we hurled ourselves into it. Five students arranged around a stainless steel island bench equipped with individual chopping boards, a centrepiece of fresh vegetables, Eki in chef’s jacket instructing in his mild and gentle manner and an English which despite twenty odd years in the country occasionally throws up amusing versions. (‘Scoop scum couple times as you cook’, the typed recipe for Teriyaki Chicken directs; ‘Gentry remove the mould from the Rice Salad,’ he cautions us). The ever-gracious Mayumi, his wife, was doubling as his smooth and silent assistant, fanning the steamed rice dry, whisking away dirty bowls, cleaning up as we progressed. The first lesson was in knife skills, with Eki explaining about the position of of the blade in the hand and how to lean it against curved fingers in order to avoid accidents. He showed us how to make a fresh Miso Soup, bringing water to the boil with a leaf of kobu (kelp) in it which was then removed and a handful of bonito flakes tossed in. The stock was then drained, returned to a clean pot then brought back to the boil with shredded Chinese cabbage and strained miso: the result, which we all tasted, was like sipping mouthfuls of warm ocean.

I loved the Teriyaki Chicken recipe. Ridiculously simple: chicken thighs covered with water and a slug of Teriyaki Sauce then left to simmer till reduced before sliced onions and shitake mushrooms were added. Further simmering reduced this heavenly sauce further and the result was wondrously lacquered and caramelised chicken, which was then sliced and served with rice. The final lesson was in the art of sushi rolls: with the aid of little bamboo mats we spread rice on to nori wrappers, arranged avocado, cucumber and cream cheese down the centre and curled them up into neat parcels. By this stage it was lunchtime and we were hungry. Eki poured wine and we sat around the table with bowls of Miso Soup, our Tuna Salads and sushi rolls, the platter of Teriyaki Chicken, and we abandoned ourselves. It had been several enchanting hours of acquiring new skills and recipes and meeting people in a relaxed and serene environment, and I would happily go back for more! After green tea icecream we left, each clutching a gift of Eki’s own Teriyaki Sauce and Sushi Vinegar. I can see that Teriyaki Chicken is going to be the dish I wheel out with monotonous regularity to all my dinner guests, until it is usurped by another great recipe. Eki’s next class will be held on Saturday August 27. For bookings call 6687 6103.

Splendour in the Paragraph Mandy Nolan finds out what gets Gandhi Going ime to sharpen your wits, read up on your lits and hoist up your tits (good for attracting the odd book deal, or at the very least a handy place to store your program) it’s Writer’s Festival time again with hundreds of bookish types arriving for the over 30’s festival which I think could be titled ‘Splendour in the Paragraph.’

T

Local comedian Sandy Gandhi has become a featured treat for Festival goers and this year is no exception, with Ms Gandhi roving with her scrabble board and Rhino cream she’s hoping to find an opponent who will stay up and play all night. For those unfamiliar with the satirical samosas of Ms Gandhi, she hails from Ban-

galor, India, her age is unknown and she describes her hobbies as ‘Lying around a lot and standing up occasionally’. Her favourite sexual position she notes as ‘satiated and finished.’ Ideal Man? ‘Alive, at least from the waist down.’ As the champion of the one liner Sandy Gandhi takes an academic stand this year, speaking on a panel titled ‘Humour, Crossing Cultural Divides’ on Saturday with Bruno Bouchet and Graham Riley. So how do you know when you’ve been divided? ‘When you’re in the middle, you’re an Indian and there’s a Scotsman and a Frenchman on either side.’

Isn’t that what you call being colonised? Is there humour in foreign occupation? Was there any release? ‘I’ve had some colonic relief as opposed to comic relief.’ Do you think humour can help people access different cultural values – or are they just being racist with PC hats on? ‘Well it’s not a laughing matter is it. Or is it a laughing matter? I think laughing does matter.’ Do you think Bob Carr was laughing? ‘I knew he was going to resign. I think Howard is going to resign as well you know why, because they’re scared shitless of the terrorists and they both look like they’ve got something to hide... I’m wondering

whether John Howard is Osama Bin Laden... because he was in New York when the Twin Towers were hit and he was in London for the bombings... and casino footage from the recent Egyptian blast had him at the Black Jack tables wearing one of Janet’s tea towels.’ So will Sandy Gandhi be making the best of the Fest? ‘Last year someone told me I had a book in me... and whoever makes the first advance, they can have the book... but they better bloody wear gloves to get it out.’ Sandy Gandhi also performs at the Rails on Wednesday at the Library Fundraiser from 5.30pm.

Sandy Ghandi and travelling companion Mandy Nolan

Pocket of poets present their punditry The deadline has passed, the poems have been read and the judges have made their decisions. From a rich and diverse field of entries, finalists for the 2005 Byron Bay Writers Festival Poetry Prize have been announced.

Congratulations to Sydney’s Stephen Muecke for ‘Post-Orientalism’, to south of the border (Victorian) entrant Carolyn Leach-Paholski for ‘A Modern History of the Ear’ and to Suffolk Park poet Lel Sebastian for her work ‘I Shall Tell’. Seventy seven poets submitted up to five poems each,

ensuring a challenging adjudication for the three judges. And now you can hear the results: on Saturday August 6 the finalists will read their shortlisted poems at 8pm at the Byron Community and Cultural Centre. Judges Larry Buttrose and Susan Bradley-Smith will decide the winner from the three and you can expect passionate debate to ensue. Readers will recognise the name of Stephen Muecke, author and professor in Cultural Studies at the University of Technology, Sydney. A respected writer on indigenous Australia, Stephen is a panellist at the Festival and will conduct a workshop on Fictocritical Writing: writing outside literature. This is a workshop for innovative writers who dare to bend the rules of genre and style. (Check www.byronbaywritersfestival.com for workshop details and to place bookings). Writers and readers interested in the academic and travel genres will

benefit from Stephen’s panel appearances during the Festival itself. Lel or Narelle Sebastian is well known to Bay FM listeners and her interviews with Festival guests will highlight the wealth of nationally and internationally significant names in attendance this year. Expect to hear Narelle on Bay FM in conversation with USSR writer Maria Tumarkin, human rights activist QC Julian Burnside and compelling Australian author Sonya Hartnett. Said Festival Director Jill Eddington‚ ‘It is exciting to see entries to the Poetry Prize arrive from poets outside the Northern Rivers region, especially when they are of a standard as to demand inclusion in the short list.‘ Festival ticket holders are reminded that their Three Day or Saturday pass will guarantee them entry to the Poetry event, or a single ticket may be purchased by calling Jetset on 6685 6262.

There are sex and gender differences between men and women, and what else is different? Why is it that sometimes we feel like we are on different wavelengths – or different planets? ACE is offering a new, short course this term to explore these differences. The aim is to better understand each other and to build more enduring, satisfying relationships. The program will be facilitated by Gayle Russell, wellknown for her personal growth programs. Gayle is also a trained Gestalt Psychotherapist. ‘When I could understand and experience my partner’s differing emotional needs and he, mine, our relationship improved. This was a strong motivation for me to put this program together,’ said Gayle. The program is suited for either singles or couples and will run for four Tuesdays 6pm-9pm in Mullumbimby. Phone ACE now on 684

We miss you Billy Boy, your humour, smile, laughter, you are still with us in our hearts & memories – everyday. My heart aches and eyes tear at just the thought of you. All we can do is wait on God’s promise of returning the dead so we can all live in a new world of peace – this is hope. Mum, Brett, Bo. � � � � � � � �

NYE meeting Whether or not to retain the Bay FM dance party was the key talking point at last Wednesday night’s New Year’s Eve (NYE) Committee meeting. A combination of residents and business owners ďŹ lled the public gallery and gave their views on how the night should be run. M ayo r Ja n B a r h a m opened the debate with concerns about the level of promotion that the dance party had received particularly on Triple M. ‘This is no slight on BayFM but we have a responsibility as a community to rein New Year’s Eve in.’ Bay FM’s Peter WynnMoylan challenged the claim that the dance party brought extra people into the Bay, adding that ‘the dance party provides all of the funding for the event’. Speaking in favour of retaining the dance party was Jamie Lancaster from the Balcony Restaurant saying the party ‘hadn’t caused any problems’. NYE Committee member, Tom Mooney, commented that there was a need to entertain people already in town over the NYE period. ‘We need a lot more money, a lot more police and a lot more secu-

rity. To reinvent the wheel is a very dangerous thing, let’s reďŹ ne it but not reinvent it,’ he said. ‘The idea is not to stop the entertainment, but the type of entertainment we have,’ said Jan Barham, a thought which was echoed by Cr John Lazarus, ‘We want something that will appeal to more than 15-24 year olds but attract families and children back into town.’ Current sources of funding according to Jan Barham include the state government, existing Council funding of between $25,000$35,000, the beachfront market stall fees, parking fees and food stall fees, however more sources of income are needed to cover the entire event cost.

Govt throws out line on fishing laws

Anglers in NSW are invited to have their say on proposals to change some recreational fishing rules including modifications to size limits, bag limits and fishing methods. NSW Minister for Primary Industries (DPI) Ian Macdonald said two discussion papers have been prepared in consultation with the commercial and recreational fishing advisory councils. ‘This process gives people the opportunity to comment on the proposals and options for changes to the current fishing rules,’ Mr Macdonald said.

‘The discussion papers include proposals for changes to freshwater and saltwater bag and size limits and methods, and for fishing competitions. The changes being considered for saltwater fishing include introducing a bag limit for common baitfish; a combined bag limit of 20 for all leatherjacket species; smaller bag limits for some highly valued species including mahi-mahi, marlin, sailfish and swordfish; introducing minimum length for several species and creating a spearfishing code of practice.

The DPI will distribute 75 000 discussion papers throughout NSW using bait and tackle shops, Fishcare volunteers, DPI Fisheries offices and direct mail to stakeholder groups, fish cooperatives and fishing clubs. Copies of the papers can also be found at www. dpi.nsw.gov.au. Local angling clubs have already started to respond to the proposed rule changes and are mostly in support of the new regulations as a necessary step to protect the future of the sport as well as the sustainability and viability of fisheries resources.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Giants scrape home at South Tweed The Mullumbimby Giants managed to just get their noses in front of South Tweed in an extremely close game at South Tweed last weekend. The home side got away to an early lead but the Giants kept coming back at them in a solid all round team effort. With the score locked at 38 all and just minutes remaining, South Tweed kicked a field goal and looked like getting away with the win. However, good play from Paul Latta to steal the ball and then convert a subsequent penalty just got the Giants a much needed

albeit narrow 40-39 win. ‘It was a great game for the spectators as it was so close right up to the end,’ said club president and reserve grade coach Steve Butler. ‘South Tweed probably played better than their position on the table would indicate, but we always knew it would be a tough game up there.’ With only three rounds of the competition left and the Giants holding onto fifth spot on the NRRRL table, it seems likely that they will make it to the semifinals despite their poor start to the season. ‘This weekend will be

Local supermarket supports Little As

tough against Seagulls, but when we play at home anything can happen,’ said Butler. ‘We’ve got a bye the following week and Byron Bay in the last round, so we should get into the semis.’ In further good news for the club, the reserves and U18s also recorded wins against South Tweed, the ďŹ rst time they’ve had wins in all three grades for some time. Final results Mullumbimby 40 d South Tweed 39; reserve grade Mullumbimby 24 d South Tweed 22; U18 Mullumbimby 38 d South Tweed 14.

A draw keeps the Rams out in front Byron Bay premiers played host to second place Goonellabah last weekend in a top of the table clash and a likely preview of the grand final game. The game was one of two contrasting halves with the Rams dominating the first half and Goonellabah the second. After starting the game strongly, it wasn’t long before the Rams converted the pressure into a goal through John Bradbury. The Rams kept the pressure on, going close on two more occasions with Br uce Morhaus looking sharp up

front and Kai Connell saving anything Goonellabah threw at him. However, a defensive mixup late in the half allowed Goonellabah to equalise taking the score to 1-1 at the break. Goonellabah came out in the second half looking far more aggressive in attack and soon won a free kick which they converted, taking them into the lead 2-1. With the game owing from one end of the ďŹ eld to the other, Paul Bird made a weaving run into the penalty area and was fouled. Aaron Richter Steers made no mistake with

the penalty; ďŹ nal score 2-2. The Rams have held on to their 2 point lead as a result of their draw and will play Lismore Workers in Lismore Dennetts IGA has just helped Mullumbimby Little Athletics purchase thirty new hurdles under the IGA this weekend. Reserves needed a win to Community Support Program.

Top year for Bangalow RU Aussie’s girl Down 0-11 at half time to major rivals Iluka, Bangalow rugby club really had to apply themselves and grind to a hard fought 12-11 victory. An opening try to Iluka plus two penalty goals in the ďŹ rst 15 minutes seemed to unsettle Bangalow; they seemed to be trying too hard and nothing was working. Settling down in the second half, tries to Jock Craigie and Neil Moran and a Richard Allen conversion got Bangalow home. The whole team should be congratulated on how they applied themselves to the game; all players did exactly what was expected of them. An overall strong line-out performance but two lost

tight heads and wheeled scrums evened up the possession. Points went to Jock Craigie (1), Blair Duignan (2), Greg (Crusher) James (3), who also got Players’ Player. The home and away season is complete with 14 wins from 15 games . Winners of the minor premiership, unbeaten at home and with a very good defensive record – the best in the zone - it is now ďŹ nals time. The major semi-ďŹ nal will see Bangalow take on Iluka next Saturday August 6 with the winner going straight into the grand ďŹ nal. Everyone is welcome to come along and support your rugby club; meet at Hotel from 12pm.

FNC dressage champs The Summerland Dressage Club is hosting the annual Horseland Far North Coast Dressage Championships at Bangalow Showground this weekend. Entries in the international level tests are the strongest ever and there will be horses competing that will be in contention for the Olympic team for the Beijing games. Australia’s only Olympic level judge, Queenslander Mary Seifried

who judged at the Athens games, will be part of the judging panel. The club is grateful for the support of its many local sponsors.Major sponsor, Horseland Lismore will have a trade stall at the event. This is a once a year opportunity to see top horses competing locally with the draw for the top level tests starting at midday on Saturday; spectators are most welcome.

A reader notes that while Lennox Head is terrorised by packs of alcohol-powered youngsters causing disturbances and vandalising property, the police bring in reinforcements and sniffer dogs from Sydney and Tweed Heads to bust a night club in the Bay where adults are peacefully dancing. Backlash suspects most people in this area would rather be protected from drunken aggressive youths (many underage) roaming the streets than adults in a nightclub – even if those naughty adults have chosen to take an illegal drug that encourages dancing, affection and other peaceful pursuits (and will, like alcohol, ultimately damage their brains). Q Q Q Q Residents of Dingo Lane, Myocum should be on the look-out for wildlife as a koala with a young baby has been sighted in the area. Drivers please take care, particularly at night, as koalas are not known for their road sense. And those residents of Myocum with big dogs could try keeping them at home. Q Q Q Q If you’re feeling surrounded by chardonnay-swilling tossers in their ďŹ fties, then it’s no wonder. According to a report from KPMG, Byron Bay has the highest proportion of baby boomers in the country at 27 per cent of residents. The national average is 21 per cent. Q Q Q Q Big it up for Centrelink staff from Byron Bay and Brunswick Heads who gave blood as part of the Red Cross’s Operation Lifeblood. Despite the opinions of some struggling clients of Centrelink it proves that, like Shylock, if you prick ’em, they bleed. Q Q Q Q

Teapots are gathering for the annual Morpeth Muster of Novelty Teapots.

Forget all these music festivals, Byron Bay, what about the World Jamboree of Dolphin Toothbrush Holders or even better, the International Championships for Knitted Penguin Apparel? Kylie Richards is pictured right with some prime examples of the art.

Peak welfare body the Australian Council of Social Ser vices (ACOSS) has launched an Action Network which enables you to take action in a few minutes by emailing your local member of parliament. Its ďŹ rst e-action is to urge our politicians not to leave people with disabilities and single parents with less money to live on. Go to www.acoss. org.au, enter your postcode, join the Action Network by registering your name and address and send a letter to your MP and senators about this important issue. Q Q Q Q Leadership contender Carl Scully had the dirty done on him by someone trying to undermine his credibility by sending out an anti-immunisation paper he wrote in 1992. Scully has changed his position – which won’t be good news to all Byron residents – but took the attack well, judging by a brief press release: â€˜â€Śif Caucus members are interested in any other part of my history deemed relevant to the leadership race, I’m offering to make available a geography assignment I did in Year 9, a crayon drawing from Year 1 and some fingerpainting I did in Kindy.’ We’d be happy to see the ďŹ ngerpainting, so send it along, Carl.
