Forrest gig: Gellibrand Clean Water Campaign – part 1

Oct 26, 2006 Past gigs and events

best conch gig ever, everybody says so…In August 2006 we took a Conch road trip down to a gorgeous place known as Forrest to do a benefit gig for the Gellibrand Clean Water Group. A local community organisation involving people from around the Otways district, the GCWG are fighting for their right to clean drinking water! Seems fair enough, but once again profits and business interests are being put ahead of the wellbeing and safety of local communities as clean water supplies are threatened as the companies running the blue-gum plantations carry out aerial spraying of dangerous pesticides.

We had such a fantastic night, and the wonderful Eva took so many photos, this is only the first batch!
