Borich X Borich + Brus Double CD and DVD combined     AUD40.00

My Son Lucius had some time off from touring with the Band COG back in 2007 so we thought it would be great to do a show together, with our old friend Harry Brus on Bass at Sydney’s Basement Club.

Lucius has grown up hearing my songs, so it was easy to get together and have a blast with a lot of musician friends there to witness it – thanks guys! [Look out for Rose Tattoo lads Angry Anderson's head and Mick Cox's nose in the shadows]

Unbeknown to me, Clayton Doley was there playing with Alien Zoo, opening the night – so I invited him to Jam - we quickly talked through a couple of songs -- and he was fantastic! – as Doley’s are!!

THEN ! Another complete surprise to me was Leo Sayer getting up with us. Harry plays with Leo and invited him up on stage. What a great way to meet a great artist!! I hope you enjoy the show – We sure did!! Love n Cheers Kevin

Welcome to this edition of the KB Boogie News 

Hi Blogger, I hope all is well with you and yours !

It’s like we’re in that movie I saw once, I think Dustin Hoffman was in it fighting to save 
the world from a Pandemic, very weird.

“What do you say to Break the Ice, I know its happened to me more than twice”

Oh !!... that b the opening chorus line  to my "Call a Friend” song I  released  featuring Russell 
Morris singing tag team style with me, and a wow, I heard it on Brisbane's ABC radio the other day while driving. … So I ask have you heard it on some station anywhere??.. would be nice to know, when, where & what station please, that will show me the ones that support my music.

Well….. the ice has melted now, we're playing a DRIVE -IN Concert  at our local Maleny Show Grounds on the 18th of July.
     
They’ll have a huge screen and the sound will be sent to the Car's radio’s,  so we’re really looking forward to having a play at last. There will be 4 bands starting at 5pm till 9 -Vix & The  Hot Chicks - The Spirit Blues Band - Accidentally on Purpose and us, The Kevin Borich Express!!
      
If you are in Queensland or northern NSW it’s going to be a unique experience, I remember going to the drive in movies a couple of times way back, we never had them in NZ.

Ticket link is - ticketebo.com.au/winterblues 
       
I’ve been doing some streaming on Face Book to keep my musical ball bouncing and to see how 
it goes,  I did a couple that you can still see on FB, doing another on a Sunday in a couple of weeks.

Had great response and they went really well with  thousands of  watchers, some asking 
questions that I answered - the internet dropped out in the second one and we had to
wait till it hooked up again.. funny as!… All due to our snail pace internet up here.

Thanks to those who have been buying stuff off of my www.kevinborich.com.au shop. 
That's been most helpful as it looks like live event entertainment will be the last they unlock-down.

Oh yes I must ask again if you haven’t already >> Please ?? subscribe to my YouTube channel!!!! Here - KB YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/kevinborichI need a thousand to get it up and running properly, spread the word please.

Here some good info - https://planetofthehumans.com  re the bio industries what an eyeopener this is!!

Cheers Kevin

PS.
I found some in depth info re the Corona Virus via "The Epoch Times" news paper which was founded in the USA in 2000 by some Chinese people who had fled communism, seeking to create an independent truthful uncensored media view on what really happens over there. it is long, but a very comprehensive view that is very worth viewing.

Express News November 2019 News

      Visit KB's Online Store                       News and Blues 04 November 2019

 

Welcome to this edition of the KB Boogie News 


Hello Blogger, I  hope all is good in your hood.

There’s a few exciting things about to happen.

In three weeks or so I’ll be releasing my “Call a Friend” song, it's the one I asked Russell Morris to sing with mien tag team style, he said “Sure thing Kev”. 

So Nick (my producer) & I went to his place and within a couple of hours he’d done a great vocal.

It's kinda about how some friends that you used to see quite a bit of in the past have faded off your radar and you’re thinking about calling them to see how they’re going.

Also I’ve had quite a few roadies over time who are now hitting very hard times due to the demise of the live music scene, now accelerated by the relatively new lockout laws. Of course, this is in the Mental health domain which is also affecting many of our farmers terribly. It these situations a call from a friend can help them cope. People in both of these occupations are now known to have taken their own lives.

Then there are also people who suffer depression who need a call from a friend – or someone.

The song is a reminder that real personal communication from others is essential for all of us.
