Gecko gets an email…..

Posted on April 28, 2013 by KG

‘Hi!
There’s this photo you made:
HERE

So, the thing is that we have a 2-piece blues band here in Budapest and we’re about to release a new EP (online only). And we would love to use that camel. He/She has just that clever look we need for the cover.
This is really just a favour we are asking as it is highly unlikely that we ever will see any money from releasing the record. That means we can’t pay, that’s for sure.

This is us: Frozen Steak

I’m attaching the cover draft that my bandmate made.
Please contact me and let me know if we can use your picture for the cover. Otherwise we’ll have to go to the zoo.
Best regards,

Laszlo Borza
Budapest, Hungary
Their stuff is available online at the link above, and I know we have some blues fans. Well worth a look and a listen.

      About camels in Australia:

      http://camelfarm.com/camels/camels_australia.html

      The pioneers of the Outback found camels to be quite useful, but when railroads, highways, and trucks came along – the working camels were retired – and their offspring became free rangers, who refuse the Welfare Dime and never cast a vote for Labor :!: :mrgreen:

        They do even better than refuse the welfare dime, Ronbo–they eat thornbush, a plant that’s a plague and a nuisance. :grin:

    I think so, Kirly, but then I’m hopelessly biased. ;-)

      Thank you Gecko for your beautiful pictures :!:

      You have encouraged me to buy a camera and try my luck at photography.

      Like at the yearly May Day Demonstrations in Seattle, where the communists are allowed by the Seattle Soviet to run amok downtown and break out the capitalist glass at Wells Fargo and Bank of America. :evil:

    Australian dollars, Carol. I think NZ still uses axe heads and blankets. ;-)
