Massimo Ballone-Burini enlevé et dépouillé à Castelfidardo - Italie
Contribué par Harley Jones

Le journal local Corriere Adriatico/Ancona faisait un reportage sur ce fait dimanche dernier.
Massimo Ballone-Burini, agé de 58 ans, est le propriétaire de Ballone Burini, célèbre fabrique d'Accordéons.
L'agression eut lieu pendant qu'il stationnait sa voiture dans son garage de retour d'un dîner dans une pizzeria locale.


Trois hommes l'ont ligoté et lui ont recouvert la tête d'un sac plastique. Massimo : "à ce moment, j'étais vraiment effrayé car je ne pouvais plus respirer depuis un moment. Je pensais que j'allais mourir!"

Sa vie fut sauvée lorsque Massimo luta suffisamment pour libérer ses mains et retirer le sac plastique de sa tête. Il a alors pu appeler de l'aide et ses voisins l'on libéré.

Les ravisseurs ont dérobé une somme d'argent conséquente et sa montre en or d'une grande valeur. Par chance il n'a pas été blessé et son Range Rover et sa Porsche n'ont pas été dérobés.

John MacDonald Returns Home to Scotland – Part 2
Contributed by Rob Howard

When John MacDonald, Australian-based Scots accordionist-entertainer, returned to his native Scotland recently, he met up with old friend John Carmichael in Glasgow. The meeting led out to one of Scotland's best jam sessions for a long time…

On a beautiful sunny summer's day in the suburb of Giffnock, accordionist John Carmichael's home and garden were turned into a perfect setting for the best in Scottish Music.

Among the musicians were John Carmichael and John MacDonald on piano accordions, Ivor Britton and Charlie Kirkpatrick  on button accordions, plus the great talents of Marie Fielding on fiddle, Walter Sinton - well known Scottish keyboard player  - also visiting from Australia, and his brother John Sinton  on double bass. The music flowed on into the early evening, much to the delight of the residents of the Glasgow suburb.

John Carmichael and John MacDonald also took the opportunity of recording some Station IDs for Ontario's Radio Station Bluewater Radio 91.3 FM and Andy Mack's(left) ‘Sounds of Scotland’ Show, which is heard live on the Worldwide Internet every week. Andy is a great supporter of Scottish music, and is a great ambassador for Scottish accordion music overseas.

John MacDonald’s latest CD ‘Years Apart’ is available online.
