Well the second weekend of Wildcat Katie brown went well! we did cast photos on sat. , got recorded fri + sat night. On Sat Morning i went and sang at Brendas church for a benifet of some kind. not a big crowd but WAY to early to sing! lol i actually forgot some of my lyrics! which is embarrassing... but i wasnt the only one so it was all good .
i sang "funny girl" "the Wizard & I" & " Strangers"
last night i found out for the Wildlife safari that Brianna and i Are the ONLY ones singing The Watlzing matilda! lol... both of us have never heard it before! and i actually looked up the meaning of some of the words and song...and Whooo Whee! thats a demented song! lol

Sean & I, or Wildcat Katie Brown & Big Bob Kelly! |
the bases of the song is this: a Swagman(traveler) camps out by the billabong (the lake) making some bad tea with his billy(a thing to boil water usually 2-3 pints) When a Jumbuck(sheep) comes downt to the billabong to get something to drink... the swag man then "shoves the jumbuck in his tuckerbag"(a food carrying bag) then whent he courtman comes down with the troopers(police) asking where the jumpbuck is. the swagman jumpes into the billabon and shouts "You'll never take me alive" so tech. he commits suicide and then haunts that lake where he died!
O M G!
For such a Lively tune it sure is taking on a darker meaning! its like that song "peter peter pumpkin eater" which we all know is not really a fairtytale but a news article about a man who murdered his wife and then buried her in his pumpkin patch so tech he was eating her remains through the pumpkin. *shivers*
and of course Humpty Dumpty was a man who commited suiced and the king tried to keep it quiet!
Where did i get all this info! who knows... but its part of the useless knowledge that i have!
SOOOOO Anyway.
I have to learn 3 songs by thursday, for the wildlife safari... to explain they got donated 50,000$ towards their Australian exibit and they asked pam to have a small show for the event...well most of us that are going are from the current show. so yup! I have finally made friends! a goal i can now scratch off my list!
Next on that list...
A JOB! lol
