Jimmy Barnes

At @ejie’s for dinner and young @jimmymetherell is on the grill tonight. He’s whipped up a couple of great Kiwi steaks and we can’t wait to dig in.

I’ve been watching a lot of rugby with Teddy. Here he is pretending to be a trophy. He is hilarious. What a great weekend it’s been.

My Granddaughter Ruby Rodgers’ new EP ‘Sixteen’ is out today, and I couldn’t be more proud. The record also features some incredibly talented artists including Jem Cassar-Daley and Jessica Mayboy. Make sure you check it out - it’s available on all steaming platforms, or grab a copy of the limited edition vinyl, here: rubyrodgers.com

One of my favourite songs to sing. This is from The Playroom in Surfers Paradise, 1984. A contender for the upcoming summer shows.

This is Teddy’s dog Matilda, my new best Kiwi friend. She’s a Shnorkiepoo and she is gorgeous.

Jane thinks it’s awful but it’s offal … there must be a Haggis connection here somewhere. Pan Thai Noodles on Dominion Rd.

Enjoying NZ with our Kiwi family. Have a great weekend everyone. The party season has come early this year. #whanau #newzealand

Great time out at the Moto GP on Phillip Island - for the last time. Was nice to meet Diogo Moreira, Johann Zarco, and Aussie Jackie Miller. Thanks to everyone who braved the rain and rocked out with us the whole show.

Now this is treasure. A couple of cases of unwaxed apples straight from Batlow. Crunchy, tasty, smell like apples… these are the real deal, like the good old days 🍎🍎🍎 Thank you David Purcell

A fresh Niçoise salad on a fresh spring day. It’s great to be home by the river. The garden is lush and breathtaking, such a calming place for us to recharge. @ellymaybarnes

Great show in Townsville last night. The band were red hot…. Good to be back on stage after a bit of a break. Thanks to everyone for coming out to Sounds of Rock Music Festival. 📸: Leeroy Todd

Tonight it’s a Scottish dinner. I call it Mince & Tatties, some call this Savoury Mince. You can tell which parts of the meal are cooked by me. No matter what, it’s a favourite of the Scots in this family.

We loved playing ‘Paradise’ last summer. should I keep it on the setlist? Getting ready for Sounds Of Rock in Townsville next Saturday. See you there. For all upcoming tour dates + tickets check out JimmyBarnes.com/tour-dates

We sent off Angry today. Lovely words from his children. He’ll be sadly missed.

Hope you’ve all had a great start to the week after the long weekend. Here’s one of our favourite songs that we posted back when we first stated with the Jane Barnes Band. Have You Ever Seen The Rain by Creedence Clearwater Revival.
