FAIR DINKUM YARNS FROM DOWNUNDER #2- "ORSTRAYA, ORSTRAYA, WE LUVS YOUSE !!"

FACING THE MUSIC ON AUSTRALIA DAY WITH KEYBOARD KELLY...

 

Larrikin Outlaw Bush Arranger, Bruce "Keyboard" Kelly wearing D.I.Y armour (cut from laminated sheet metal music) and bearing his weapon of musical destruction, made a plucky last ditch effort to win his freedom from the Upthecreeka Stockade on Australia Day by correctly remembering the words of the National Anthem.

 

"Orstrayuns all let us ring Joyce,

For she has knobbly knees...."

 

er...

 

"Aussies all are refugees,

'cept ab-o-rig-ines..."

 

um...

 

"Ockers all like eating meese,

'Cos they are stuffed with cheese...."

 

Bugger it anyway, strewth some baaaaaastard crack a tinny!

Me in one of my suits of Kelly Gang armour. This particular suit was made from scavenged sheets of aluminum bulked out with composite board filling to make it look thicker.

 

I think Gail took the original piccy that I modified, but the background plate of flag and fence was one of mine.

 

Oh, and the picture of the keyboard I took seperately as well.

 

Do I need to explain who Ned Kelly was? Dingo's kidneys, just look him up on wikky, or check out my "RED KELLY" Photoset fer gawd's sake! I gotta bugger off to a barbie!

See yez round like a Lifesaver...
