Mullumbimby's 'Russians' in good voiceA rare piece of cheerful news comes from the unlikely locale of Mullumbimby, a small Australian town in New South Wales where 28 middle-aged bearded Aussies have formed a choir, singing only traditional Russian folk and marching songs. Calling themselves a "fake genuine Russian choir", their stirring rendition of the Song of the Volga Boatmen is something to behold. It is believed to be the first time the name "Mullumbimby" has ever been mentioned on Russian airwaves. A Russian choir was so impressed they made a special take of Waltzing Matilda and sent it to the Aussies. Back in the USSRHopefully the Dustyesky choir will eventually make it to Red Square.
