ScuRoo Posted December 5, 2021 Posted December 5, 2021 Yunupingu was born as Tom Djambayang Bakamana Yunupingu on 17 September 1956 in Yirrkala in Arnhem Land, an Aboriginal reserve in the northeastern part of the Northern Territory. He was a member of the Gumatj people, one of sixteen groups of the Yolngu people. His skin name was Gudjuk, but his name was changed to Mandawuy in 1990 when a family member with the same name died, in line with Yolngu custom. He described his names as "Mandawuy" means 'from clay'; Djarrtjuntjun means 'roots of the paperbark tree that still burn and throw off heat after a fire has died down'; Yunupingu depicts a solid rock that, having travelled from freshwater, stands in salty waters, its base deep in the earth. I am Gudjuk the fire kite". 1

Went two-up on the Stelvio. 100 miles up with a lot of lane-splitting. Took Pacific Coast Highway on the way home, all the way from Long Beach to Dana Point, All the beach towns were lit up for Christmas. 44 Degrees through Camp Pendleton. What a fabulous show. Seems it was also the first live-stream concert from the theater. Here it is: 2 1
