Seth Lakeman,pioneer of putting the "F" word back into Folk, has stopped briefly for a quick photo shoot on the first leg of his new Australian top venue tour, along with his band "The dog nobblers" Seth( 32 ,what! 2nd from the right wearing the hat) said he was pleased to be touring in some of the most prestigious theatres in the world, places like WOLUMLA, JIGADY CREEK,BERMAGUI,MERIMBULA to name but a few of these international gigs, but his arrival along with the "dogs" as they are affectionately known, was marred by the discovery that Seth(32,what!2nd from the right wearing the hat) was being impersonated by what Seth called"a young upstart" from somewhere on the pommy cowpat! apparently this neredowell had been accusing Seth(32, what! 2nd from the right and wearing the hat) of listening to him rehearsing by holding a glass to the wall of some low life dive in the U.K. where Seth(32,what!2nd from the right and wearing the hat) lives when he is "resting" and then recording sound alike covers and flogging them to the unsuspecting public! Seth(32,what!2nd from the right and wearing the hat) undeterred by this small hiccup Seth(32,what!2nd from the right and wearing the hat) said that if this Wombat continued to bother him he would get his mate and cobber G G, DAY-FEE (he isn't cheap!) to whack a couple of rocket launchers his way! or worse still to get the little bugger force fed with Seths(32,what! 2nd from the right and wearing the hat) dads Cornish pasties which are specifically designed to bring a whole new meaning to the word constipation!
Day two and another round of photo shoots for Seth(32, what! 2nd on the left and wearing yet another hat(no flies on this one!) this time with a group of old fishwives from the local port and as Seth,(32, what!2nd on the left) is well used to taking advantage of any port in a storm this situation is a familiar one! as he left for a well earned rest at a dingo dive in Sydney Seth,(2nd on the left) said "I would hope now that the Australian public have seen the"real" me they will get on with buying my records by the billycan full!
