about

'Legend of Stu' is a Jack Flash tall tale about a friend of ours Stuart Garske.
One day an incident happened which evolved Stuart and a RACQ employee.
The RACQ employee came to help out he was not impressed, he was about to embark on a family holiday at the beach.
After the event we got writing & ended up with this song.

lyrics

Verse:
Born in 1987
Was said he came straight down from heaven
Made every movement in reverse
Didn't believe the family curse
Until that fatal day in June
While sipping on a glass of goon
He ignored the warnings of his father
Stuart watch for that gutter

Verse:
Born and raised in the Crows Nest shire
Got his first job when he was ten
He worked as a fire fighter
Saved more lives then any man

Chorus:
What happened to you Stuart our son?
Showed so much promise when you where young
Why do things happen like this?
You we will miss

Verse:
Fifteen he fought in Narm
Fought on the front line gun in arm
Home he came and home he stayed
Tore him down his debt was paid

Chorus:
What happened to you Stuart our son?
Showed so much promise when you where young
Why do things happen like this?
You we will miss
