Live Music with The Sole Bay Jazz Band…

Certainly was a good night at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham, with some very talented musicians to entertain us all.

A nice crowd to support the band…We had some favourite music and some new tunes with vocals and audience participation … Hope no one outside wondered who it was with 'no clothes on'..........

Thanks as always for digging deep for the raffle which helps to support the live music each week, and for those who always bring extra prizes thank you, we did have a rather good raffle this week to try and tempt more money from you all! and nice that the prizes were spread about the room. Again thank you to my raffle ticket folders a grand job as always.

Lovely friendly crowd even though there were a few on holiday also lots of sport on TV …which we were kept abreast off thanks to technology! … some with illness, we miss you all so get well soon for those who were to unwell to attend, you missed a good night, even though it was very warm evening …such strange weather we are having this year, but the band played on through the heat, although nice to have the doors open even if a few moths came to attend!.

Heidi as always lovely smiles. Thanks Sole Bay as always great live music. 

Nice of the band to play dear Peter a Happy Birthday …90 years young, been coming to jazz a long time. 

We sadly lost our other Peter Parr and his funeral will be on Tuesday July 19th service starts at 1.20pm at The Gorleston Crem… Some of the Sole Bay Jazz band will be playing him on his way as he had been a loyal fan for over 40 years, also they will play for a while at The Dock Tavern Gorleston at the wake. so if you wish to say a fond farewell to him please do come and join us.

Whilst on the subject of losing people, I am so sorry that another wonderful Denny has been taken from us …Martin has been suffering for a long time with cancer, and a night ago passed away, gone to join his Dad, our dear Keith, it would have been Keith's birthday on the 14th July, maybe some of the Denny family will be able to come along to join us, and have some good memories at his sad time. Because I feel Keith is always there in spirit every week.

A few photos, and Dave have tried to get the idea at your suggestion how did I do?? a bit grainy on one…
