Spread a little happiness

Another fantastic gig at the Risley Park. The venue had forgotten to put the dance floor down.. but our audiences are very brave...and risked axminster carpet burns to boogy the night away. From waltzes to jive...everyone had a great time..New numbers trialled for first time...and you could sense the concentration in the orchestra pit...Fever and It had to be you...greatly pleased the crowd. One lady sat at a table...smiled all night. It was either the vodka, or the happiness we were spreading. More music to come at our Xmas extravaganza on Dec 19th. Live music. Sarnies...chips and mince pies...all for £5. Book your tickets asp as they are sure to.go faster than Santa's sleigh over Syria.

Playing in the Park

Wow.Wow.Wow. Tonight's gig at the Risley Park ..was a real gamble. A new band..a new venue ..but hearts sank, as 15 minutes before the start of the dance...only 4 people in the audience...but the show must go on....but by 8pm we had a full house. Almost as if a coach party had turned up! The crowd were buzzing and the band on fire. From Jersey bounce to the finale of Valerie...the audience savored every last note. No dance floor...but people danced. The whole band were drenched with sweat, as they played their hearts out to a wonderful bunch of music lovers. Lots of lovely compliments at the end...with one recurring question...when will we be back....well just like Schwarzenegger...we will be...and very soon. Watch this space....now where's my motorcycle and Sun glasses...asta la Vista Cranberry Flick.

Very excited to be back in rehearsal next week with Cranberry Flick. We were going to be playing at the Sausage in Cider festival, but have withdrawn our Bratwurst, as they seem to be having a few communication problems. Our next gig will be on Aug 22nd at The Risley Park. We have new numbers to try. Old numbers to tweak..and a browse round Fugue Music in breaks. Musicians rehearsing in a music shop!!! Its like an Aladins cave of musical wonders...the only next best thing would be to rehearse in a pub....oh we are.  Coming soon to the Vernon Arms Spondon. Watch this space..you will be warmly welcomed to watch how we put a show together. You will be warmly welcomed to buy us drinks. You will be hugged if you buy a CD.
