Sentimental Jimmy gives Grafton thumbs up

THE DEX may have just received its first celebrity endorsement after Jimmy Barnes shared Lesley Apps's review on his Saraton Theatre show on December 3 to his 65,000 Twitter and 264,000+ Facebook followers.

REVIEW: An evening with Barnesy

Barnes wrote it was "Nice to see people connecting with show!" before posting the story link.

His post on Facebook received more than 1000 likes, 74 comments and 52 shares.

We wondered why there was a sudden influx of traffic to the DEX website from readers outside the Clarence Valley.

Thanks Jimmy.

In the meantime here's  the old Cold Chisel classic about Grafton:
