GG Rocks the Newport Metal Masters
Graham's new live band hit the stage to a rapturous welcome at the Newport Hotel on Sunday June 24th as they headlined the SLAM Metal Masters. An enthusiastic Fremantle crowd braved the elements to witness the first live performance since the December 2005 launch of the Ormsby GG Signature guitars.
New to the band was young (19) drummer Tom Ions, who played beyond his years as he powered the rest of the band - Graham, guitarist Saxon Smith and bassist Jim Awram - through a rocking 35-minute set of 7 tracks from Leap Of Face and 2002's Club Voodoo.
Included from the earlier release were crowd favourites Vinnie's Pink Guitar and Dinosaur Bones, the latter segueing into an impromptu jam between Graham, Saxon and Tom as Jim changed a broken string. The band effortlessly swung straight into Raven's Eye Pt.1 before ending the set with the singing harmony lead guitars of Off The Deep End. An unexpected but thoroughly deserved encore found Graham playing the title track from Leap Of Face, finishing off an excellent return to live performance for Graham Greene and The Happy Sinners.

Photos from the SLAM Metal Masters gig can be found in a new gallery in the Photos & Art page of Graham's website, and also on his MySpace page (see address below). Also on MySpace is the voice of the Happy Sinners, Donna Greene. Visit her page to hear her amazing vocals on streaming mp3 tracks.
 

Guitar Heroes:Guitar Fest 2007
One of Graham's duties to perform whilst in Sydney for the Guitar Heroes:Guitar Fest expo and festival will be serving on the judging panel for the GH:GF Best Guitarist Competition, the final of which will be held on Sunday the 7th of October at the Bridge Hotel in Rozelle as part of the closing festivities. The event is jointly sponsored by Crossroad Guitars and Australian Guitar Magazine. October 7th, coincidentally, also happens to be Graham's birthday!

Accompanying Graham on the trip east will be Saxon Smith and Donna Greene, the live rhythm section being filled out in Sydney by Ice Tiger alumni James Pool on drums and special guest bassist Jewels.
