I am finally at page 367 of 488 pages of Working Class Man. And I am so inspired by Jimmy Barnes Story he is an example of a Survivor of horrific abuse and has succeeded in pulling his life together Jane you are the best thing that has ever happened for jimmy you are his rock.
My older brother was in Jimmy's form 1 class he showed me his school class photo Elizabeth like any other part of Australia is what you make of it , I don't recall the violence to that level we lived in housing commission homes we had our good and bad times never written a book about it ..
It is not enough to say that Jimmy Barnes is a national treasure. The way his songs encapsulate life as a working person in Australia is genius. His fans come from a broad spectrum of Australia - but when they are at a concert they are one. Jane Barnes is a witty, devoted and intelligent woman who has been the rock behind Jimmy. Yes, Jimmy it's been a hell of a time, but you've got a lot left to contribute. Jimmy Barnes is a true Australian hero.
And for jimmy your second book has helped me understand where I have been and where I am now in life I am a 3rd generation Australian from Scottish and Irish background and after reading both your books it has enabled me to understand my Scottish and Irish background.
Elizabeth was a great place to grow up don’t blame Elizabeth for the road you took. You lived behind me I was in Hambrige Road. I’m Scottish born and loved all the Scots, English, Irish 🏴🏴🏴🏴
