The Golfer’s friend was an Irishman.
A lover of life, of people, of warm weather and travel plus golf …just some of things they shared in common.
He was also a lover of music – especially ‘Folk Music’ – which he described as a different form of storytelling.
He once told me being able to compere festivals – the National Folk Fest and Port Fairy being a couple – presenting musicians/artists to the ‘world’ was an honour
As was being a broadcaster with Radio Adelaide’s Folk Show for many many years
He was a great believer in community radio as you can hear in this small clip from a longer interview
********.
It was a quiet funeral, simple not overstated. No ‘readings’ just some words from family and friends – music was a little bit of soft fiddle during the photo slide show and……
This song (sung by Ceol – an Irish folk band) played at the end as people were leaving….
……there’s a session in the corner……I don’t want to leave…..I don’t want to go…..can’t stay here and I can’t go home…….one more tune, one more tune is all we want….…give me one more for the road…..
David would’ve loved it
