    Catherine Kidd’s performance style makes me think of Dr. Seuss meets Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom meets David Suzuki meets Vaudeville meets Patti Smith. Yeah, it is that good. It’s a musical theatre crash course in punk rock zoology. -- T.L. Cowan for the Calgary International Spoken Word Festival 2006 .... "Tom Waits dissolved in a lime margarita," Alan Hindle, Only ..

  • David Franks: Walkabout…

    After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on MySpace...

    Poem cum song 5 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my Blog for details):
    STATE TO STATE

    (TUNE:

    From Sydney Town,
    In uni. break,
    I drove out west
    To earnings make
    Onion picking,
    On the fields
    Of Echuca,
    That year’s yields.

    After day’s work,
    From Y.H.A.,
    A group of us
    Would not delay
    To walk on down
    To the dirt rim
    Of the Murray,
    For a cool swim.

    On one such day,
    I do declare,
    Some three of us
    Had a big dare
    To swim across,
    From state to state,
    The wide Murray -
    I took the bait.

    Yes, foolishly,
    I took the bait -
    A choice that I
    Would come to hate,
    For I almost
    Did drown that date,
    Making the swim
    From state to state.
