THE LINK REPORT

Excitement in the valley this week with local musicians joining in the celebration of the life of Dolly Parton.

The Woronora Country and Western, Yodelling, Square Dancing and Banjo Society will host its very own Dollyfest at Woronora RSL Club on 12 September. Society President Cletus D Lynedans said the lineup would be impressive and pay homage to the late Queen of Country Music.

“We love both kinds of music here in Woronora, country AND western, and Dolly was our idol,” said an emotional Lynedans. “We are going to call it “I Beg Your Parton - Woronora Salutes Dolly”.

A range of Woronora’s best country artists will perform their own songs inspired by Dolly’s greatest hits.

Willie Haggard will perform his classic JOE LEAN, about a Woronora local who had one leg and couldn’t stand straight at the club bar.

Loretta Scruggs will perform her beloved ballad about missing the Woronora bus and having to leg it to Sutherland, WALKING 965.

Also on the card will be our very own Buster Cousin performing his homage to one man’s affection for his domesticated ruminant mammal, MY GOAT OF MANY LOVERS.

And any country music celebration would not be complete without Dwight Cash’s immortal classic about being banned more times than anyone else from Woronora RSL Club, HERE YOU! DON’T COME AGAIN.

Club Media and Communications Manager Murray Link said he was happy to support the festival, even though it was not the rock and roll usually enjoyed at the Club.

“I don’t like country music personally, I’m not going to say why”, said a reflective Link. “I don’t want to denigrate people who do, and for those who listen to country music, denigrate means ‘put down’.

The Dollyfest will also include local jug band The Mullet Rustlers, a boot-scooting demonstration, moonshine tasting, and a yodelling competition.

The slogan for the festival will be launched at Woronora RSL Club tomorrow night as part of Thirsty Thursday celebrations but has already leaked to the media as “I BEG YOUR PARTON - COME FOR THE MUSIC, STAY BECAUSE YOU’RE TOO PI**ED TO DRIVE HOME”.
