I never knew there were two nine thirties on a Sunday? Crawling out of bed, I heard the distinct sound of Snap, Crackle and Pop. Breakfast ? No just my legs preparing to walk to the bathroom. With most days in August being wet and chilly, I wasn't looking forward to a day time gig on someone's lawn in the middle of the country. But what a day it turned out to be. The sun was belting down. The venue was beautiful. The people lovely. The Band note perfect. It was a relaxed and comfortable afternoon for everyone. The band also got fed after the first set. The only problem we had was with the wind in the second half. But I had warned our trumpet player Ted, not to have the quiche. The people sang. The people swayed with the music. The people were happy. We were happy. Cranberry puts on a top show and in any setting, venue and conditions. Quality ...sheer Quality.

It's raining men... and a girl
On a summers night that would have had Noah rushing to build another Ark, Cranberry Flick entertained a very enthusiastic audience to a smorgasbord of fine music. Lovely to see some new faces in the audience. They didn't know what to expect as they were strictly Big Band fans. But the overwhelming opinion after was ' WOW' many said that they were blown away with the show and with the variety of music. Many said that so many memories were brought back of an era they loved. It was a brilliant show, and even though it was still pouring, everyone went home with sunshine in their hearts.
