I really was rushed to be able to get there but so very glad I did, not many there, some people had not seen for ages though which was good, but the band played the best I have heard them for ages…

Gary has a broken leg so Verena stepped in, on the drums … very well done young lady some really good playing very impressed… EVERYONE played so well but must of course mention Henry who is improving so well such a melodic saxophone played with real feeling…

Sole Bay Jazz Band fun night…

Some really good fun and laughs with The Sole Bay Jazz Band last evening…the audience showing appreciation with all that applause.

Tim nice to see him taking charge and everyone getting a play so glad that it was a very upbeat night of music…Loved the nice bright shirts as well!

Love to see the laughs between Tim, Chris and Derek have not seen Derek smile so much for ages, and playing well even if he made us jump sometimes with high notes ha ha…

Great string bass as always from our Tony, Craig great drumming good to see you back… Alan on guitar and banjo and Ray on piano, some great singing from Chris, always everything put into it…and Jenny gave us a couple of numbers great to hear her again. Sorry photo did not come out well of Jenny so she would not thank me for putting it on. Fudge has a good one on FB.

I did not write a blog last week I do not miss many weeks…(mainly because of real life… supporting some dear friends who were sorting out a funeral and yesterday we said farewell to a dear neighbour,)  so from sad to happy as the band gelled and really cheered everyone up… it was a really good old happy upbeat band of the past. So thanks Sole Bay and friends a 'blast from the past'.

Thanks to Christine and Clover for the raffle well done to all you who dig deep who with Jon's support we get to have live music each week. of course to our 'boys' who faithfully fold all the tickets.

Thanks young Emily smiling as always and nice to have you back…

A few missing who were not well so we wish you a 'get well soon' but a better crowd this week

A rather enjoyable evening at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham, with the Sole Bay Jazz Band and guests…

Some very good music and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves in the band, nice vocals from Barry as always…

Nice to see Dave out of retirement to play the drums for us as well. Well done gentlemen nice choices.

A good crowd but still empty chairs, but maybe holidays… But also a few newcomers which are very welcome I always say how lucky we are to have such great live music. Thank you for everyone digging deep again for the raffle to help keeping these talented musicians coming to play for us every Thursday evening.

Thanks to 'Our Boys' for folding the raffle tickets… Christine and Clover again collecting the money and getting which I always think are really good prizes for the lucky ones. No entrance fee means the raffle is very important.
