Just Visiting: Big Sandy

Artist/Band: Big Sandy (of Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite Boys) on tour with Los Straitjackets

Why are you coming to visit our fair country? I am currently on tour in Australia as a guest vocalist with Los Straitjackets. Los Straitjackets have asked me to join them on this trip due to overwhelming popular demand.

Is this your first visit? This will be my 4th visit to Australia, but my first time ever to come over with Los Straitjackets.

How long are you here for? I'll be in Australia for a little over a week, but hope to cram in as much excitement within that time as is humanly possible.

What do you know about Australia, in ten words or less? Second country in the world to allow women to vote!

Any extra-curricular activities you hope to participate in while here? I'm hoping to find some time to go record shopping while I'm there! I love 60s Aussie bands!

What will you be taking home as a souvenir? I hope to be taking home a copy of the Betty McQuade 45 Tongue Tied!

Where can we come say hi, and buy you an Aussie beer? Sunday, March 15, 2015 Sydney Rock 'n' Roll & Alternative Market Manning Bar, Sydney Uni.
