Oscar

Oscar agreed to be my model for trying out the new camera! great clarity, am really pleased with it, hope to pop out today and see if I can find some interesting things to take, it will be a change from jazz!

new camera

Thursday night at the Buck .I took some photos with my new little Canon, some better than others, but have learned how to do a video, so watch out folks that should be a laugh.

Jazz

Another great night of music from the Sole Bay Jazz, at the Buck.

Sad news that Phil the Landlord will be having a break from the Sole Bay after next week, for one week, so watch this space.. hoping he changes his mind.

At Last! Hollywood Beckons!

At long last I have managed to download my first attempt at a movie.
This is an Oldie but Goldie from Chris and Ruth's wedding, just as a try-out.
If this works properly I'll be posting some clips of the jazz more often.

Please forgive the camerawork (sheesh).

Sept 9th Jazz at Flixton Buck

Have just heard from Alan that the line up for 9th September will be:-
Tim Densham, reeds.. Alan Cugnoni, banjo and guitar..Neil Kane, drums..Tony Jullings, double bass..and Dick Mayhew (trummy) on trombone.

Looks like a great line up, lots of people on holidays at the moment, but one never knows maybe some more guests may pop in.

Alan does such a great job organising the line up each week.. somehow making the sounds so different with the mix of muscians.

It will as always be a great night at the Flixton Buck, great company and wonderful music, so come along and enjoy.

Jazz

Another great night at the Flixton Buck on Thursday .

The line up being Tim Densham on reeds/Alan Cugnoni, guitar and banjo/ Neil Kane, Drums /the Prof Tony Jullings on double bass/and guests Derek Cubitt on reeds, and Simon Nelson with his cornet and vocal...

A return of Zeb a young trombone player, who we have watched over the years, made another great night..

No photos this week, but will try next week...Thanks to the staff, as always for making it fun, and the lovely friends and fans who make it all worth while for the great musicians, it gives them such good feed back when week after week people turn out to hear the jazz.

Also no line up information for next Thursday at the moment, but watch this space...

I am trying to make the blog a bit better, but at the moment if you are interested in just the jazz, just click on the top banner, but if you want my ordinary chat, just keep with cakes and al!!
