We are always very happy to see new people on our friendly forum. The boards are beautifully moderated by Karen Swanson, so you are always guaranteed a very warm welcome.



Second Life

Clayton had a lot of fun playing SL Woodstock on 17th August.

Although the time was 7pm in Second Life, it was actually 3am in real life! So there was a LOT of coffee on the go. This didn't stop us from having a fantastic time though. We were so impressed with those of you that stayed awake to come and support us.

The early morning partying didn't stop the audience from having fun, wearing party hats and waving sparklers provided by Mazzie in honour of Ricks birthday! With only the occasional cry of 'Anyone got any ProPlus?' from Ian! LOL!



Road To Elmersville

We have got together with Karen Swanson to create a MySpace page dedicated to the Elmer family, their history and the story of Elmersville.

Please visit The new Elmersville myspace page to read the story, look at the wonderful pictures and leave a comment

The CD is still for sale from the Clayton website with proceeds going to the Salvation Army. You can read about why the Salvation Army was chosen on the Elmersville page.

Because this CD was made under the name Callaghan we are continuing to sell it under that name while stocks last. We feel a strong commitment to the Elmer family and to the Salvation Army and feel it would not be in their best interest to discontinue sales of Elmersville.

Please note that the vocal performance on the songs of this CD are by Georgina Callaghan



Lindsay Armaou - (vocals/co-writer)

Rick Mitra - (bass/co-writer/producer) Lulu, Marti Pellow

John Peppard - (guitars/co-writer) Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood

Geoff Dunn - (drums/co-writer) Van Morrison, Incognito
