As you might have guessed, the East Coast Music Awards are about to

descend on the capital city...and we're deep into preparation. Which

includes setting up our production office at Musiplex - where four of

the ECMA showcases will be held: Bluegrass, Black Vibes, The

Aboriginal Showcase and The Battle of the Bands.

And we're helping out with Big Hearts for the Homeless - you may have

seen the posters appearing all over town. Yesterday, some of the young

performers paid a visit to the Men's Shelter to see for themselves

what they're supporting by taking to the stage on Valentine's Day.

And on the calendar today...the Tallest Band on Earth...Open Choir

Practice with Choeeur de Soulanges...an illustrated lecture on Roman

coins...and more...

So...back to the ECMA preparations...and trying to find an excuse to

get outside for a while to enjoy the sudden thaw.

Cheers,

George
