00:15Not every day you get to play in the main street of Quilpie.

00:18They closed off the street, they dumped a whole truckload of red dirt out there

00:23and the kids were having a good time, the line dancers were having a great time

00:27and we were in front of the legendary Brick Hotel

00:31and you really had that sense of community spirit, everybody coming together.

00:43Personally I love the bush, I love country people, country Australia

00:46and I have so much respect for them and these salt of the earth communities

00:51like Quilpie where we played tonight and Adervale and Junder and Thargaminder

00:57and all those towns that have battled through the flooding that happened last year

01:02and the way that they've recovered is a real inspiration to me.

01:06That's the main reason that we want to come back out

01:08is just to let people know that they're not forgotten

01:12and we just want to come out, give you some entertainment, give you a bit of relief

01:16and salute you as well and say thank you for what you do.
