G’day mate. Tonight’s Hootenanny takes us South of the equator. We are visiting some musicians from the land down under, where women glow and men chunder. Or so I hear. Anyway we’ll throw a few more shrimp on the barbie as you enjoy tonight’s offerings you larrikins.
Who knows what other countries we will visit in the future. The Walrus knows, hehehehehe…
Haven’t chundered in years …
Jimmy Barnes. One of the best from Australia. His daughter is Mahalia Barnes, who is also incredibly talented.

. . . And cue up any of Olivia Newton-John’s songs from Grease, as well.
I don’t even have to provide a link to the video: it’s running through your mind already.
With the voice saying: “That’s not a naif. This is a naif.“
OK, so I was wrong about the hootenanny being extra classy tonight. But it did rock.
Irony of ironies …
Two of the eleven (Jessie’s Girl and Funkytown) are unavailable in Oz – “The uploader has not made this video available in your country”.
That is so odd. Are they Donald Trump’s favorite songs or something?
Bandwidth superseded by much cooler Spazzys videos.
