Ararat Jailhouse Rock Festival...
The largest celebration of 50s / 60s rock 'n' roll in southern australia - & it gets better & better every year...
A 6 day rock 'n' roll & hotrod festival held in march each year at the country town of ararat in victoria's western district, just one hour's drive from ballarat...
We've included pikkies on this page of events, friends, ourselves & general shots, from 2002 to 2008...
We hope you enjoy seeing them...

ararat jailhouse rock festival - & what a buzz it was...
beautiful sunny day, dancin' to one of our favourite rockabilly bands
"slap 'n the cats"
One of Ray's very fave dancing partners is Marrie...
Marrie's not only delightful & as "cute as a button",
she's also an exceptionally good dancer...
& a special thanks to "peters pix" for the some of the "happy snaps"...
if you live in western victoria & you want some good professional
pikkie's, then peter's definately the way to go...
Two of Us
The "Two of Us" put on a great show in Ararat's main street
There's no doubt about it - when the "Two of Us"
are performing, there's always people up dancin'
This is obviously due to their great "full band" sound,
utilizing their own personal pre-recorded tracks,
fabulous voices & strong onstage performance
And check out their CD "Dance the Night Away", because
it's an absolute must for your R 'n' R collection
You can contact them for your next gig, party or event at:
tel: 03 5338 2183 mob: 0412 810 540
We have more "Two of Us" pikkies & info on our site at:
When we heard that a Rock 'n' Roll band consisting of members
from Victorian Police was going to be playing at the Festival,
have to admit our first thoughts were "so what"...
But boy - these guys are fabulous musicians, & the vocals
by Brian Carbery & Lorena Novoa are outstanding...
Professionalism ???
You should have seen these guys "working the crowd", with a
combination of on-stage pizzazz & moving down amongst
the audience achieving some amazing participation...
Even more important - they're great to dance to... :o)
"Code One" are far more than just a "PR arm" of Victoria Police,
they're very much a talented Rock 'n' Roll outfit...
If you'd like to book "Code One", you can contact them at:
tel: 03 9489 2257
fax: 03 9482 424
Lots & lots of fun 'n' dancin' during the Ararat Festival - so it was time on
the final night to sit around having a quiet drink, a chat & few laughs
And we'll all be back again next year...

FREE INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS
You can talk to us at gorgeous from your computer absolutely FREE
It's just like talking over the telephone - but you don't have to pay
those horrendously expensive international phone call rates
You'll need to install a clever little freeware program called "Skype"
Once you've installed "Skype", search for us under "gorgeous-gear"
in Australia - & you can then speak to us completely FREE
You can even call people who don't have "Skype", or have a computer
Yes, it does cost you a little, but we really do mean "a little" - & it's
also considerably less than those International Phone Cards
eg: Check out the costs of a 30 minute call between Australia & the
following Countries - & the costs are the same in either direction:
USA:
|
US 62 cents
|
 |
New Zealand:
|
NZ 98 cents

Details are on the "Skype" site - under "SkypeOut"
If you have a webcam, we can even "eyeball" while we're talking
with "Skype" video calling - & this is also completely FREE
"Skype's" PRIVATE chat function includes a conference call facility
In the course of our gorgeous business, we make many calls to our
customers right across the world - & as you can probably tell
from all this, we're absolutley rapt with "Skype"
"Skype" is a fabulous utility & so easy to use - it's saving us a "bundle"
“I knew it was over when I downloaded Skype,” Michael Powell, chairman, Federal Communications Commission, explained. “When the inventors of KaZaA are distributing for free a little program that you can use to talk to anybody else, and the quality is fantastic, and it’s free – it’s over. The world will change now inevitably.”
