Sole Bay Jazz with friends…

What  great night of live music at the Sports Pavilion last evening, and also what a good crowd of people listening to some really talented musicians…

Some really good solos from all the members…A fabulous musical treat, thank you band…

Ron as always when he comes to visit plays with such feeling, Ray on the piano seems to find more notes than there is on the keyboard…Craig with some good drums as always, Alan a duet with Ron was so nice…Alan  well done with the line up as always something different each week, you are appreciated …Tony on his string bass with some magic in his fingers with that big instrument…Tim at the helm playing well as always,  on Clarinet/Sax and that Baritone sounds so good…with Ron and him on the Clarinets and Saxophones giving us some talented magic…How lucky were we all.

Then to top it we had Simon Denny to sing for us, some real moody yummy songs, nice to see you back Simon. Roy and Jenny could have a rest from singing for a change.

Great as well to see some friends from the Norfolk Dixieland Band on a visit to listen.

Thanks to Jazz Janet again for helping me with the raffle, I do appreciate it, I did a little to help last night I hope, I miss chatting to all the folk, and I am sorry if I did not speak to many of you as still unable to see much without my specs! Thanks as well to Colin, Duncan, Don and Jan for the folding of the tickets as they always do, and of course Keith who organises it.and well done to everyone who put their hands in pockets to help with keeping these talented gentlemen coming to play live music for us all on a Thursday night. Sorry you cannot all win a prize…but it is mainly for the band…

Heidi what a great young lady looking after the bar,  making a fantastic job of it and always with a smile, thanks Heidi.

I think we will have to start bringing our own chairs, as some already do, it will soon be better weather and then we can sit outside as well…amazing that we have such talent on our doorstep, and so many people are making the most of it, so thank you all…
