       BEHIND 
        THE SCENES WITH KEITH URBAN  
      So you've 
        always wanted to know what goes into making of a video clip - an essential 
        marketing tool in the huge international country music market. 
         
        Well, we have an exclusive behind the scenes footage of the filming of 
        expatriate Australasian Keith Urban's fifth #1 U.S. hit Days Go By. 
         
        You meet Keith's mum - head of his million-dollar fan club - as she ensures 
        her guitar slinger son matches his music and image. 
         
        And that means getting his hair right - check out Keith's genetic dam 
        that overflowed into his feisty follicles. 
         
        Oh, the music's pretty good on Days Go By - one of the highlights 
        of Episode #4 of Nu Country TV Series #3 on Saturday January 29 at 8 p 
        m on C 31 and repeated on Tuesday February 2 at 3 p m. 
         
        The song is the eighth #5 hit for Urban, 37, who makes a triumphant tour 
        of Australia that peaks at St Kilda Palais on Saturday February 26. 
         
        That's great news for cashed up country fans to catch Shotgun Willie Nelson 
        71 and making his sixth Australian tour - at Myer Music Bowl - Sunday 
        February 27. 
         
        Chart topping Redneck Woman Gretchen Wilson, 32, also performs the venue 
        that once hosted Merle Haggard and Bob Dylan - on the Sabbath.

          Urban's

            with the Notorious Cherry Bombs. 
             
            Keith cut Crowell song Making Memories Of Us, huge selling 
            fifth album Be Here. 
             
            "They were recording across the hall from us," Urban says. 
            "I'd already been pitched the song, and I loved it, obviously." 
             
            But here the band performs the satirical Crowell-Vince Gill co-write 
            It's Hard To Kiss The Lips At Night That Chew Your Ass Out All

        STEVE FORDE FINDS ANOTHER MAN  
      
         
            | 
           
             Don't 
              accuse former rodeo rider Steve Forde of making easy bucks out of 
              his hard bucks.  
               
              The latter day Grenfell farmer has the broken bones and bruises 
              to show for his life in the saddle.  
               
              Steve, now 27, was raised on a Cowra farm and mixed music with bull 
              riding and bareback bronc work before following his dream to Texas 
              in 1998.  
               
              There he bought a 63 Dodge Polara that enabled him to travel and 
              enjoy his twin pursuits from the Lone Star state to Colorado and 
              Canada.  
               
              Forde turned his hand to fencing in famed West Texas panhandle city 
              Lubbock between gigs and rodeos.

       ROYDEN 
        DONOHUE - NYNGAN  
      Royden Donohue 
        had made four independent albums at the ripe old age of 25. 
         
        The Nyngan born balladeer performs a video of his song We're Gone 
        from one of four albums that include Heartbreaker, Rope the Moon, Solitary 
        Man and Kentucky Rain.

        with veteran bush balladeer Brian Young. 
         
        Donohue's songs are a feature of the fascinating story of Young who has 
        nurtured the careers of many Australian artists including Troy Cassar-Daley, 
        Travis Collins and Beccy Cole.

        PAUL HICKS TRIBUTE 
      And we wish 
        our best to former host Paul Hicks who returned to live on the family 
        farm at Oxley near Wangaratta last year after his dad died after a stroke. 
         
        Paul suffered a double whammy when his mother passed away from cancer 
        while he was touring Tamworth to promote his debut solo disc Kettle 
        Of Fish. 
         
        Our condolences go out to Paul, his three brothers, sister and other surviving 
        family members.
