Jazz 18th November

Sorry gentlemen I did not make the best use of my camera on Thursday night, but the music as always was great.. Nice to see Mike again and Dick (trummy) with such great trombone playing.
I have to say thank you to Alan who makes it all come together, and so glad that Phil (our landlord) has decided that we make good customers! Even if I have to take a lot of his strange humour to keep him nice and sweet....(sorry Phil) but it is worth it.

Tim who always manages to play such clear notes, our dear prof. who makes his double bass speak..and Neil who hides away behind his drums..and this week the sound different again with Dick and Mike, nice singing Mike as well...and of course Alan on banjo and guitar, (not at the same time).

So once again thank you for the music and thanks to all our friends who come week after week to appreciate the music and company.
See you on the 25th I hope..I will put the line up next..

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday David, glad you enjoyed our lunch ,,Phil you missed your favourite, but there will be others. Love Mum x

Jazz11th November..

At the risk of saying the same thing again about these musicians.. and those who do look in here will be fed up with hearing it I am sure!
they were really really great on Thursday night at the Buck.
A different line up and a different sound, even Phil (who is not keen on jazz) enjoyed it! and we like to please our landlord!

Alan who does so well, as I have said, in organizing the players here with Derek who is Mr Music man ..
A little song from Roy who as we all know puts everything into giving us a performance ,with Tim on his clarinet, sorry about the lighting looks like he has a halo,well perhaps he deserves one..
Chris giving us more songs with the prof and Ray there with him, Ray you were really on form after your hectic day Ruth said you had, so what can we say but 'thank you for the music' such great fun everyone had.
Here with Francis a little snowman which she too gave away for a youngster, as I did last week..we are soppy us women!

The line up for the 18th Alan has just sent me is:-
Tony on double bass..Neil on drums.. Alan banjo and guitar..
the front line Tim on reeds with guests Mike Leigh ..trumpet and songs (good to have you back) and Dick (trummy) Mayhew on his trombone.

Another good line up and we never know who else may appear, so if you want a good night of jazz, good company and fun join us at the Flixton Buck.

Let us show those who play live music that we appreciate that in this day and age live is best.

The Seagull..

Well not the bird Seagull.. but the theatre, what a great night of music and laughter from
"The Art Deco 'Hot' Orchestra."

Or as we know them the Sole Bay Jazz folk but all dressed up! and what a show.
Simon Denny did a really good job of the singing as usual, and don't you look good Simon ..liking the togs!






Lovely music and singing thanks to one and all, Roy and Janet for taking me and June for getting the ticket, so good to see a lot of the Thursday night folk there and we all did a little PR talking to some of the people who had not seen you and telling them to come on Thursday nights.. because Alan does a huge job of getting it all together, and they all love to play whatever mix it is.

So tonight, hope to see a nice lot at the Buck for more fun and jazz...Look out Phil here we come!

Footwarmers.



A good lunch time yesterday at the Conservative Club here at Beccles with the Footwarmers..

Hope it sounds OK..Whoops just listened to the video, afraid it sounded much better live!! however they had a good time, think the banjo forgot his way for the first time ever..and I will have to improve on my camera work!
