What a wonderful evening of talent and fun at the Sports Pavilion Ditchingham…
Great music and singing and some really terrific solos…Thank you for giving us a memorable evening…
Lots of fun between the players which of course then penetrates to the audience.
There was so much going on… Ron's great solo it is so good to see how all the band members when one is doing a solo they watch and are proud to be there, Ray with his different take on some of the trumpet jazz and keeping it going well… Tony P who managed to sort of control the chatting bit while the rest made up their minds what to play, with great verve …so added to it all,. Tony J (Happy Birthday Tony) as always fingers making such yummy sounds… Alan on the Banjo/Guitar, and chief raffle shouter! and of course our great drummer Craig giving us some real wellie with those drumsticks…
Simon and Tony gave us the vocals, and I have to say Simon you sang us to a new place, you were great, loved the mix with you and Tony on the trombone…and the lovely songs came across well, and the finish everyone so enjoyed… the music was still going round in my head in the night!
Such a shame that people are inclined to 'chat' rather loud still and do spoil it for a lot of the true listening people, however we cannot have everything, sorry for those who's faces really showed how upset they were that the loud talk upset them… you know who you are… Thank goodness the band were enjoying their playing they hopefully did not take offence. We all chat but some talk loudly through some great jazz music…but it is their loss ! but of course there was a good crowd to support the band and I am sure everyone had a good time. I know I did after having to miss last week, and still, like a lot in the room, suffering from not being well.
Thanks to Jazz Janet who did the raffle again for me, hopefully I can give her a break next week. And I can get back to tormenting everyone…all in the aid of helping the band to play each week for us…
Heidi as always a smiling vision taking care of everyone…
So thanks to one and all, roll on next week…
