Hello to all Flashbackers!
This photo was taken in 1980 at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl at one of many events labelled F.E.I.P. (for free entertainment in the park) I guess it was a jazz music concert, as my folks were pretty into a bit of JAAAAZZZZZZZZ. Of course, even though I look quite happy in this photo, I found the whole jazz thing extremely tragic and boring as only a sophisticated teenager could.
Still, it looks like it was a beautiful day and I am wearing the hippie-ish batik pants suit thing which was elasticated around the chest region(to hold it up of course)
I have gone on to drag my own kids to some lovely outdoor music events and I fear they are on the cusp of pre-teenager rebellion. Won't be long now!! Cue exaggerated eye rolling and deep sighing.
I am eating a black stump.
Kerrie, that comment was for you!
