The girls are fantastic fun and will be joining our poetry segments - this promises to be heaven for all bush poetry lovers as we will have them, Noel Stallard and John Seers together with our own Vinne Beetson, Yvonne Nichols and Paul Dunell and other walk up poets to keep you smiling. Don't forget John Smith that fantastic bush balladeer will also be coming - together with Lucky Star, Greg Hooper, Rodney Vincent and of course Jamie Way (how many of you didn't fall in love with his voice last time) as Dominos Pizzarotti.
