Year of the Tracked Vehicle (Corowa 08)

[Keith Webb]

Maurice, a local farmer kindly allowed access to his property and had laid out a 6km track along the banks of the Murray River for all to enjoy. Here's a link to the page.

Our escort Land-Rover (in which soundman Brian Laurence and I were passengers) decided to pull the Stuarts up with a rather brisk stop. The look of incredulity was surely mirrored by me... but not Brian who wound up in a tangled heap of expensive equipment towards the front of the vehicle as he had nothing to grab hold of other than the mic and mixer.



This is how close the stop was. The worst of it was I'd been taking stills and missed it on video.
