Around 60 people, including 17 poets and presenters, attended the Gosford Bush Poet’s recent concert featuring special guest, Irish Joe Lynch.
“Brilliant presentations of some truly great poetry and our resident tenor, Nick Lock, did us all proud with a wonderful rendition of the traditional Irish song, ‘The Fields of Athenry’, just to make Irish Joe feel at home,” said Gosford Bush Poets’ president Vic Jeffries. “Irish Joe was in devastating form and he thoroughly beguiled, charmed and completely entertained us all with a masterly display of storytelling, poetry and his absolute command of the spoken word,” Mr Jeffries said.
Other poets who performed on the night included Brian Bell and Richard Cutler from the Blue Mountains, Norman Allen, Jill Nevile, June Hilton, Arch Bishop (who travelled from Towamba), Jan Lock, Monsignor Father Patrick Hartigan, Joe Hartigan, Peter Mace; Ken Tough; Anne Gann, Kathy Smithson, Bob Wellard and Jack Woodward. “It was an incredibly enjoyable evening and one that I am sure many of the newcomers will be talking about for weeks
