Party night…

A good musical night with The Sole Bay Jazz Band at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham…

A good crowd came along to enjoy the live music and enjoy some food and party fun. Nice to see a nice lot of food being shared as well. 

The band played a nice selection of music and a few Christmas ones as well and Barry gave us a few songs which everyone enjoyed.

Near the end of the evening Ray found his cornet and his santa hat and brought the evening to a fun ending. With Barry on the piano.

I would just like to thank all the band members who come along every week to play for us you make our Thursday nights, so I wish you a very Merry Christmas and see you all on the 9th of January 2020.

I would also like to thank all my friends who look in on here to read about the Jazz and wish you all A Very Happy Christmas and a Healthy new Year. Maybe sometimes you can make a comment !!!!!

Clover and Christine  did a great raffle and thanks to one of our number a lovely hamper was the surprise prize, thanks to everyone who dug really deep and for those who fold the tickets each week.

Thank Emily serving us well behind the bar and always a help to me.

A few were missing due to illness, including our Fudge, but nice to see Terry and Jenny back for the evening.

Thanks Clive for some fun and for the chocs.

On her way out of the Pavilion  Clover found a ring, so if you  lost one last evening if you can contact me on messenger I will pass on to Clover, and she will make sure it is returned to you.

Dixie Mix…

A lovely evening of entertainment at Southwold  Pavilion, Dixie Mix always know how to have fun and make sure the audience has a wonderful evening.

They are so talented and never a dull moment just music and singing the night away. Simon leading the band with his usual sense of humour…Pete…Chris…Kev…Tony…John all such wonderful talented musicians, as always a pleasure to see and hear them.

Nice to see Keith and have a chat as well.

Thanks Richard for taking us, and lovely company Jan and Jazz Janet.

Great scampi and chips as well!

May have to re think about my little camera it does not like taking photos indoors, did a little movie of the only Christmas song they have done!!! but it is too wobbly to put on here! But have managed to salvage a few photos, although Kev and Tony hide behind I did get a few with them on.

Thanks Guys for a great evening and for all the hugs and chat.

Sole Bay Jazz Band…

Another good evening of Jazz and Blues from The Sole Bay Jazz Band at The Sports Pavilion, Ditchingham.

The weather was a very rainy blustery night, so only the die hard fans turned up, however those who were there enjoyed a really good evening of live music, we are so lucky to have these talented musicians coming along each week to play for us, so hope that in the New Year when the band comes back after a break …old and new people who love live music will come along again. The last evening this year is the 19th December 2019…'party night'… and the band returns 9th January 2020.

Tim and Trummy playing so well always a good act together! Ray on piano and a nice giggle when a french tune was played he turned the accordion button on ,very nice! and a little blow with the trumpet at the end.
Our wonderful back liners who play all night long Alan…Tony and Craig how talented are they. then we have Barry who has a really great voice and always finds something different to sing and love that the band all look at the music he provides, and suddenly it all fits together and every one enjoys themselves.

Thanks Christine and Clover for the raffle always a very nice one, and will be even better for the party night…thanks as always to our 'boys' for folding all those tickets, and those who were there last night for digging deep as always.

Our Emily behind the bar always happy and smiling and thanks for your help.

I did manage a couple of photos this week and did not lose them when downloading so that is a relief as always Fudge has some good one on her Sole Bay face book page. Lovely to see her there as not been a well young lady!

I wish all those in poor health who could not get there last evening a fast track to health and come back to join us…

We have lost a few lovely fans  over the past years who now look down from up there, and last week it was a year since our dear Brian went to join them so Chris if you are still looking in, we still miss that Dad of yours.

Sole Bay Jazz Band with guests…

What a great evening of live music from The Sole Bay Jazz Band with guests 
at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham…

I took some really good photos but just lost everything from my camera as computer did a blip! so a bit sad about that, as had some personal ones on there as well …however Fudge does have some photos on the FB page.

Tim in charge with some great playing as always and lots of fun with cheerful antidotes!

Derek managed a good play although could see some pain there! wonderful to still be playing.

Phil always a great guitar playing… lovely solo!

Ray giving the keyboard a thorough work out…

Our super back liners Tony lovely to see you looking up and I took some lovely shots only to lose them, that string bass zinged.

Alan on guitar and Banjo looking like he was enjoying the night.

Craig those lovely old Bassett drums got a good thrashing!

Barry in fine voice as always! I took a good photo now lost in space.

A good crowd just like it used to be before we lost so many friends who I hope were looking down last night as it was a great gig…

Some of the new people last evening were from an appreciation group who were I hope very impressed with the evening, they certainly looked like they enjoyed it …so hope they come again Lynn from the group gave us a song, I had heard her before when she sang at Cool Blue band and she was delightful.

Thanks Clover and Christine for the raffle you had a big evening! thanks of course to our 3 'boys' who fold all the tickets.

A big thank you of course as always to you all digging deep for the raffle as you know that and the bar profits are what keeps these talented musicians coming along each week to play for us.

Emily a busy bar last night and thanks for all your help, that smile is great x

Again sad that no photos so sorry.

Hope to see a good crowd next week, and the week after the 19th will be the last before Christmas, and you can bring goodies for the evening!


Fudge thank you for letting me borrow your photo of band xx
