Ceberano

Okay, so I promised this and although the mood to actually write about it has long since left me, briefly, here it is.
The other night Kerry and I went to the Kate Ceberano concert at Burswood. It was a lovely night, if only because I saw Kerry, and despite the smelly geriatric spacker bloke (who smelt so bad his carer felt the need to apologise).
Anyway, there I was watching Ms Ceberano and I couldn't help but be reminded of my Dear Old Aunty, Michelle (who is not old, but is certainly dear).
Here is this woman, who's only 40 (a few years on the DOA) and she's got this fantastic loud-mouthed sass. A remarkable confidence. And it's not hateful, it's hot. She's comfortable and confident. Apart from vintage and confidence, they actually also look a bit alike. Well their hair is the same now at least. And from where I was in the audience it could have my aunt dressed in the fantastic Aurelio Casterella frocks and belting out Pash and Bedroom Eyes.
And I thought two things: Wow, she reminds me of Michelle.
And, wow... if she and Michelle and the Noranda Desperate Housewives were out on a boozy night... I'm pretty certain it would end in gutters, cells, hospital wards, etc. I mean I just get the sense it would be big.

I actually went to her website the other day and noticed her hair is looking a touch like mine, I've moved on from Suzie Q - upgraded to Kate. Thank you very much for the comparison I think she's brilliant. A night out with Kate and the Desperate's would end in a drunken Karoke session somewhere.....

What can I say… Yes, Yes, Yes! Without trying to sound like, “When Harry met Sally” but as a loving girlfriend living interstate, Michelle is definitely one hot bodied sassy woman! As loud and proud she can be to share her opinion, I must say she is a very genuine and honest person.
Michelle singing brings back memories, late nights and early mornings at the Casino.
U2 concert, Vertigo… living it up!
Looking forward to seeing the new hairdo, frocking it up and parting to early hours of the morning.
Love as always,
