Publishing song sheets and copyright - 25th June 2025
For some time, the BUMS management committee has been working on a project to publish our song sheets on the website.

At last, we have some good news and can restart the project.
We would like to arrange food before the Coorparoo jam. The club caterers can offer a simple choice like a hamburger and chips for around $20. An alternative is to order some pizzas and sell them on an honour system for $2 a slice (that is we trust you to put money in the pot). We will order pizza at the 2 July jam. Pizzas available from 6.00pm. Jam starts at 6.30pm. If you would prefer something different to pizza, let Max (the MC) or Karen (on the front desk) know your preferences.
