Sing and drum with TAP

Voices of the Tamar

Join the "Pavarotti", "Dame Nellie Melba" and other TAPsters in some good old fashioned protest singing at venues of ill repute and inconvenience too.

"Voices of the Tamar" is a ten strong band of vocal chords that has performed all over Launceston in off beat locations at airports, politician's doorways, corporate foyers and in front of visiting Prime Ministers. In fact, anywhere there is dissonance caused by the pulp mill, they are there to help.

Down load words of the "Cough Cough" song below. More hits to come. Stand by.

 

Drumming with TAP

Have fun with TAP's drumming group. Led by experienced drummers and musicians, Tappers are joining in the fun to make a lot of syncopated noise with pots and pans. A powerful performance by hundreds at Beaconsfield, George Town and Lindsay Street, Launceston sent a strong message to politicians and others.

Words

Wise man who ain't done no good stands by his house on sea
Wise man who ain't done no good has water to his knees

Another man screams how he hates America
Then lives in his westernized ways
Tasmanian Tamar pulping non fiction
Clearing great holes with its grace

When the last tree has died, the
last rivers dry and the last fish has been caught
will you realize that you cannot eat money
its tastes no good for sure

Wise man don't ask no questions so he stays in his comfortable space.
Wise man ain't got no direction never had one in the first place

When people who care are suddenly popular
Till pop cultures all that it is.
Ask those people to move in their stated direction
They surely will resist

When the last tree has died, the
last rivers dry and the last fish has been caught
will you realize that you cannot eat money
it tastes no good for sure

Wise man stares to the valleys image of smoldering trees
Wise man in all of his glory boosts his economy

Another mans works hard for 62 hours just to keep up with financial strain
Wise man signs on his white Paper
To let GUNNS can begin their campaign


When the last tree has died, the
last rivers dry and the last fish has been caught
will you realize that you cannot eat money
it tastes no good for sure.
