Dear friend, Isla Grant, sings this for our dear Ozzie friends. She'll be touring Oz in 2021. I hope you will all go to see her.

Thanks heaps everyone for thinking about us. It really does mean a lot.

Right now in my home state alone, we have over 30,000 volunteer firefighters who have been battling fires for around 2-3 months in addition to recent military help and firefighters coming in from Canada, the US and New Zealand to help. The amount of good will and people-helping-people that abounds throughout so many communities is enormous.

  • For example... one of our comediennes, Celeste Barber, has raised over $25,000,000 for bushfire help in just three days.

You might not have heard this below song, in this version The Seekers (whom many of you will know) are singing. For me, this song embodies what I think of as the Australian spirit. And its at times like what we're now experiencing that it's good to be reminded of that spirit.

To all my fellow Aussies on these forums, I sincerely hope that this piece of music brings some comfort and makes you feel proud when you think of ordinary people from all walks of life doing extraordinary things right now. As I read somewhere the other day, not all superheroes wear capes.

Thanks again everyone.
Noel

Tiz said that the Aussies were here in force to help fight the recent fires in California. Many "Bushies" came at their own expense. Hundreds of Canadians came in busloads to help us.

It is such things that restore my faith in humanity.

In case anyone is interested in the scale of events here in Australia at the moment, here's a map of Australia with all the fires that are presently burning included. I don't know how the map was created but it appeared in one our newspapers today.

This map of Australia is superimposed over a map of the USA and the lower section of Canada so that an understanding of magnitude is possible. Everything is a 1:1 scale.

Regards,
Noel

And missing most of Tasmania (but most Taswegians are used to that.)

Make sure you see Noels map.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
