Title: Sydney smiley smilers
Post by: Micha on July 25, 2014, 07:15:14 AM
Looks like I'm going to be in Sydney, Australia, from August 20 to 25. Any chance for a meeting with other board members?

(I don't know which would be the right SS subboard for this thread, but I guess most people are here.)

Cheers,
Jon Blum

Hi guys,

I too live in this beautiful and expensive city down under! Feel free to keep me in the loop if you want, I'd love to meet fellow Beach Boys fanatics!

Yeah, Micha - why the blazes do you want to go to Sydney? Cancel that idea and come down to Melbourne instead; we're much more civilised and better set-up to accomodate urbane Euro gentlemen like your good self!

I just put my finger on the map... :-D

Astronomically, Melbourne would have been the better choice for a northern hemispherian like me! :) But it's all set now.

WOW!  You learn something everyday - never heard of Abby Winters before now.  Ring-a-ding-ding!

Well, Mikie - come to Melbourne - I'll happily supply the beers then send you off to meet Abby and Friends (having said that, the muff-tucker ratio seems pretty high at Abby W, so you may end up with a cold Kebab, a headache and a nap on the nearest St Kilda street corner)

Just to close this thread, I'm back from my journey now, and did get to meet John Stivaktas in Sydney. I enjoyed that evening very much! :) Smiley Smilers should meet much more often.

O, I have done so. Several times. Very enjoyable indeed. I second your advice !

Sorry I wasn't able to follow up on any kind of meeting -- I've been up to my neck in day-job and film-related work, so I've barely even been around here!

...and looking through recent threads, perhaps it's just as well...

Cheers,
Jon Blum

Yes Micha, it was a wonderful night my friend and a true pleasure to meet you and discuss the Beach Boys! I sincerely hope you enjoyed your stay in Australia.
