Christmas 2014....The Velobanjogent is off playing banjo for a week at the 69th Australian Jazz Convention...

This time of the year, between Christmas and the New Year sees the Australian Jazz Convention held in a different city/town across Australia...this is the 69th, having started just after WW2 in 1946 in Melbourne Victoria....
Its in Swan Hill on the Murray River, the border of NSW and Victoria....
I'm taking several 4 string plectrum type banjos, Vegavoxes and an unusual 4 string plectrum guitar utilising a Vegavox banjo neck....
With eleven bands to play in I'll be busy...
 All plectrum banjos....DQ...The Velobanjogent, centre with Peter Allen, left both on Vegavoxes and Paul Baker, right on a D'Oole vox style resonator banjo.
So...thanks for stopping by to look at my site throughout the past year, a Merry Christmas to yourself and family and a Happy New Year for 2015 when I hope to have you drop by to see some of my motorcycle, especially Velocette, offerings.....
