Christmas in Melbourne

I had quite a bizarre night in "Melbourne" when i was there in July, well i say bizarre it was quite good fun. I met this band in the hostel i was staying, and every month they are invited to play at a Christmas dinner hosted at one of the nearby clubs in St Kilda near to the hostel. So one night i was speaking to them and they needed someone to help them with some Christmas tunes so i stepped in and suddenly i found myself in the middle of July, well there winter, which kept some dignity to it i guess. playing "Fairytale of New York" "Step into Christmas". We did however get to jam out some other tunes. The guys wrote songs and so do i, so we both jammed each others, with great slide guitar work from big Pete. The band sound very much like "Dave Matthews bands" and the "Counting Crowes", two bands I'm very fond of.
