Sole Bay Jazz Band Evening…

Yet another great evening of live music with the Sole Bay Jazz Band and Friends, at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham.

Sadly not many people turned out …but as the weather was not good and some people were not well or on holiday it was not a surprise…however those of us who were there were treated to a great night of Jazz and lots of fun. A good line up with Tim…Bill…Barry…Craig…Alan…Tony….

Lots of different music and Barry fitted in very well again with piano and voice, and that voice gets  better each time, Tim likes to try different music and they certainly had us all enjoying the variety. Great drumming from Craig, Tony on that bass always so good, Alan guitar and banjo, Bill he makes such great melodic music, Tim as always knowing all about the composers and having some laughs with us all as well, Barry as I said in his element entertaining us.

Tony put a little video up on FB which shows some of the great playing, the audience showed lots of appreciation  and it was well deserved. So thanks Sole Bay you did good again.

Thank you one and all for again digging deep for the raffle which help with these fine musicians to entertain us each week…Clover you did really well  …thanks to Don and Duncan for the ticket folding.

Emily smiling behind the bar and looking after us all…

Happy Anniversary to Irene and Mike hope you enjoyed your evening.

Really good  sitting in front of the band and last night our dear friend Stella came along so thanks to Rose for bringing her, been a year since she has been able to come along and she sits cheering the band on, never still and loving the music always a joy.

It is such a great friendly evening, and we do miss a lot of dear friends who are looking down each week, and to those who are not able to come along because of ill health we send our best wishes to one and all.

Thanks Fudge good photo on FB. A few of mine here…was so wrapped up in the music did not take many…

Sole Bay Jazz Band…

Thursday evening at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham, rocked with The Sole Bay Jazz Band with friends when they gave us a very enjoyable musical and happy time.

Great playing as always from Tim, and the new Baritone was sooo good…Trummy as always finding  many notes on the Trombone and the Euphonium…Ray tinkling fingers on his piano…and our three intrepid back liners, Alan…Tony and Craig…then we had Barry singing for us which is always a pleasure…

It was Sandy's birthday so she had a 'happy birthday' from the band then one of her favourite songs sung by Barry 'East of the Sun' rather good…

Thanks Clover and Christine for the raffle a good one as always… and for Duncan and Jan folding those tickets… Great to see a good crowd digging deep as always to support the band, so thank you so much.

Good to see Douglas there even at his sad time we will miss Joan. But hope you can find some pleasure coming along to listen to great music.

I love to sit at the front, and this week persuaded Jan and Duncan that it was a good spot and several folk have been saying why don't we sit at what we call the band table, so we had a great night, maybe will book those seats for the future!

Emily smiling away behind the bar, thanks for helping with our little job Em…

Wishing all those who are unwell a quick recovery, so many we miss there, but our love goes out to you all.

A few photos …Fudge has a couple of good ones on her Sole Bay site on Face Book…
