THE SUMMER TOUR OF 08

IZZY FOREAL - THE SUMMER TOUR OF 2008

Izzy Foreal of the Legendary Zarsoff Bros spent the Summer of 07-08 broadening his experiences in anticipation of a busy MUSICAL year ahead. Izzy will do whatever is required for his art and this summer expanded his repertoire bigtime. Mentally - Physically - Spiritually- Emotionally - the whole Gamut of the Human Experience. Lets see what songs and antics emerge from December and January . He climbed the Mountains and came within a few kilometres of Dorrigo. Stood right under the sign at the Crossroads but proceeded west to Armidale. Stopped briefly at Wollomombi store which was a little unnerving and reminiscent of an old movie which still haunts the Chick many years later.
In Armidale he was awarded the new stage name of BASGETTI HEAD and was invited to drink high tea in a pink plastic tea set. An offer he could not refuse !
He flew kites and blew bubbles and was told of but did not personally witness a GREEN POO.
He played a part in reducing one young lady to a state of near collapse and hysterical tears. ALL TOO MUCH is not an uncommon condition around Izzy.
With his long history of the Fart - he widened his Fart etiquette by encountering an even younger lady who informed the world nearby that she DEFINITELY ACTUALLY HAD TO FART NOW.
Then for the sake of the emotional dimension of his music required in his new world of BLUES with the HILLBILLY BLUES BANDITS - Iz did some severe suffering with a desolated woman on the long Tenterfield Road on a Public Holiday. Over the Mountains in tear dripping silence - eating a desperate and very old kebab on the deserted streets of Lismore and along the back roads of Nimbin and Murwillumbah. Listen closely for the Bluefulness of his 2008 Bandits Blues.

Back in Bilambil Valley - the floods came and Izzy entered the world of TRENCH digging. Clad in shorts and clasping a shovel he worked through the night - saving the Cottage from the downpouring water and mud and the proceeded to renovate the kitchen the very next day.

Musically he was busy right through the Summer and theres more to come. check the front page and the Hillbilly Blues Guide. Bob Dylan Song Book Band first Sunday of each month and Jamiesons restaurant every Saturday Night. Australia Day special on 26 January.

Dave Cavanagh recorded a new song at Geodrie Leaches Padded Cell studio during January and Izzy and the Bloke backed him. Watch for the video clip on U Tube.

Water swept through the Thursday night venue at Bilambil Sports Club. Water and other indescribable substances . Took massive carpet cleaners to suck it all out and dry it out. Izzy and the Dylan lads played the Sunday on damp floors with a strange lingering aroma but the crowds loved it and showed up in force. Goodly percentage of his Summer gigs were spent in Climatic Splendour and Tension. New Years at Jamiesons had its own special WATER FEATURE. Water featured over the whole 8 weeks or so. The Star Wagon spent 8 days in mud at the Cottage and Iz and Chick were driven to Charade Life .

Lets see - its been a short cold wet summer and Chick is malfunctioning somewhat with only one swim in her - let her sort out her memories here - Hmmm ! Iz and the lads did Nerang Blues n Roosters Festival with Phil Emmanuel winding it up.

Digger Revel has been popping in to the Song Book Band Arvos for a number or two.

And of course - He is still playing his love songs to the Chick on the front porch of the Cottage.

Pete Lawson is now available after winding up his LEAPING LIZARDS commitments and PASPALUM are out and about. The mixing was looking good but not sure what effect the Airlie Beach Floods have had on Dazzas place. Wish him well. Last we heard there was mud all through the house.

Paid a visit to Sarah and Phil down in Stokers Siding. Didnt have much time to network with FRIENDS during 2007 with Izzys daytime gig in Brisbane so wew spent some time with FRIENDS . Sarah and Phil had floods through their place too. Right down on the creek. The house is built up but the Merc was washed through and the caravan is at an entirely new location. Tea and bikkies on their wonderful verandahs and came away with the two new Eizenberg CDs.

Izzy's girl Soz Knox made it to a Jamoze night with the beautiful Holly from Rosebank and her son Arlo. That was one good night ! Locally made cookies on the porch of the Cottage. Cups of tea and over way too soon.
