About Me

TRAVEL UPDATE: jono is currently packing his things and getting ready to head back to australia for 6 weeks - he's looking forward to a hot christmas on the beach!
it's been a crazy busy, and exciting year. 5 months in the USA, 3 months in australia, 2 months in canada, and 2 months in europe!

2007 TRAVEL SUMMARY! the year began (and will end) with jono working with kids on the beach in australia for 'tidal river SUFM' . he went off to the states to work with 'fort pastor' , and then flew back to australia to perform at the commonwealth games in melbourne in march. jono played the didgeridoo and drums for every athlete and team participating in the games, played a feature solo before the gold medal squash matches, and even played for royalty!

after a few weeks holdaying up the coast of australia, jono flew back to north america, where he was stoked to spend some time with friends in ontario, and a few weeks with the folks up at the 'muskoka woods sports resort' . some more shows in the states, and then on to europe to gig with 'tribe2' . september saw jono off to greece to host a documentary on the city of ancient conrith. (have a look at the promo video below). and finally a couple more months in the US touring with fort pastor, and then back to australia for christmas!

check out the short promo for the documentary in greece....
