Ahh, I'm glad to hear that you and vix are keeping busy. Busy is always good. Europe, Pwwwweeee, sounds awsome. You'll have to let me know all about it when I come down. Looking forward to hearing it. Yeah, sydney is always busy for some reason.
I really do love your music, not sure why I didn't get more involved earlier on. Anyway, One Coffee on a Two Seat Table is very, very good. Handy Lyrics, for sure. Freckles in my top 2 also.
To say the least, it's been quite a while since we've spoken. How have you been? How's the units? How's Vix? ;)
Life in Sydney is pretty crazy. Uni is consuming alot of my time these days. Were currently inbetween moving down to Wollongong and exams study. So kinda hectic. I'm really, really pleased to see your music career is still going great and your enjoying it more than ever. Only just seen the songs on your page then. I love them all. Always loved gone to earth - can't wait to get a new album, whenever you guys make one.
Anyway, hope all is well. If you have got any cd's of your own tunes, get mum to send one over if possible. Great to hear your music. I'll seeya when me and the girl come down in July.
Stolen from outside his house last October, on the eve of Daddy Cool's national tour with The Beach Boys, Ross Hannaford's van, complete with cargo of irreplaceable guitars, amps, pedals & custom gadgets have reappeared. Amazingly the van had been used by joy riders and dumped in a backstreet only a few k's from home without the gear being uncovered. Finally a neighbour checked inside, found Hanna's number on his equipment and hey presto! all is back to normal.
Ross is, of course, ecstatic to have his precious equipment returned, and wishes to thank each and everyone of you who contacted us, and says the love, care and support shown to him has been a life enhancing experience.
By the way, he now has his own Myspace Site where you can check on upcoming gigs. Check it here www.myspace.com/rashannafordtrio
On the eve of their first national tour in over thirty years, Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford has been robbed of his most valuable possessions, his musical instruments.
In what appears to be a random joy ride robbery, Ross' 1989 white Toyota Hi Ace van QRN 479 was stolen from the Melbourne suburb of Yarraville in the early hours of Sunday morning with all Ross' gear concealed under a tarp in the back.
Stolen along with the van were:
- Chandler 555 Guitar - customised and hand painted in Red Yellow and Green sunray design.
- Ampeg Jet II amplifier
- Rare 5 watt Diason amplifier
- Home made amplifier in Diason Cabinet with Peavey 158 Blazer head and Marantz 12" speaker
- Green and yellow Indian "hippy" bag with Boss Phrase Sampler, MXR phase 90 and Tremit Tremolo pedal.
All of these instruments are unique and irreplaceable, so musicians around Australia, keep an eye out for them. If you see or hear anything please contact the Police or Mark Sydow Management @ www.marksydow.com
