Halloween… Sole Bay Jazz!

Once again a great night of live music from the talented Sole Bay and guests…

There was some serious talent on show again this week, and a really great crowd who sounded like they really enjoyed every minute of it…Thank you all on behalf of the band for your support…

The 'Coven' ladies as always came dressed up for the occasion and again looked the part, I did take some photos before all of them got there, afraid they do not look as good on photos as they did in the flesh so to speak!!!! Thanks to them, nearly all the tables had a candle and some great halloween sweets so thank you ladies you did a great job.

A lovely surprise as well to see our Heidi behind the bar, all back to normal and a lovely smile, cannot believe the baby is 6 months, you look great young lady, and good to have you back.

 I have done a little video will have to see how it looks before I reduce it and put on here, but a few photos to be going on with…

did not get everyone on the photo, bad me!

Roy gave us some good vocals, while Ron -Tim- Trummy- on the front line were as always brilliant…

Tony- Craig-Alan-Ray provided a great back line… such good sounds…

back line looking serious…

The FootWarmers on Sunday …

Well here we go again with a bit of a wobbly video of the Footwarmers Sunday gig at the Beccles Conservative Club.

The music was very good and nice to see a good crowd to support them…A lovely Club, so hope that those coming to see the and hear the music will feel the urge to join, as always with Clubs especially this day and age, if you do not use them you lose them, and we need to support them.

The Band were joined in the second half by Ray Simmons and Chris Capocci, so have done a couple of  videos… stand by to see plenty of the post showing forthcoming events at the Club, but enjoy the fun…

Of course the sound is much better live, but hope you can see they were having fun, which as always makes us as an audience really have a good time.

So thank you all…

More fun video here…Roy likes to tease …enjoy…

Sole Bay Jazz Band…

Yet another great night of live music from the Sole Bay plus friends last night, at the Sports Pavilion Ditchingham.

Lovely to see another good crowd to support these talented musicians, and great to say less loud talking, nice to hear chat, as this is a really friendly place, so thanks everyone, I do understand that I may annoy folk doing the raffle and taking photos, but, the band would not be able to bring such good musicians without it.

Great line up and lots of different jazz, and a few songs from Roy, did love 'Misty'.
Good solos and nice fun between the band which in turn makes us fans enjoy it even more.

Fun video!!

I did try  taking a couple of video's last night of the Sole Bay, but standing up trying to hold a camera still is not good…  should have sat down! so it is very wobbly, however after watching it have decided to put it on here even though it was not a good  effort of mine, the band are having such fun, that I hope it comes across like the fun it was…

Chris is at his best making us all happy…

Sole Bay Jazz plus lots of friends…

This Thursday once again at the Pavilion Sports Centre at Ditchingham …we were treated to another great night of talent and fun… how lucky are we to be able to have such good live music so close to home, with free entry… Even if I do make sure people dig deep for the raffle, as it is what enables the band to keep playing for us…

Once again a great crowd, some new faces among the regular fans,  nice to see.

Kevin…

We always enjoy the talent of our regular musicians…

This week we had the added pleasure of Simon and Kevin

from Dixie Mix and our own Chris with his trombone great voice, and braces!!

And of course what great fun they had and then ensured that we all enjoyed it to the full…

So many thanks to you all a real pleasure for us all…

My only little niggle comes again …and as it is my blog sorry if it offends…with it doesn't really affect us who like to listen, that people talk,  we all do have a chat I know…however we do have a few who constantly talk right through the whole of the night very loudly…and I was most upset last night (as were a lot of folk)  that when the musicians are doing solos. especially when last night the double bass was being played, some people need to just be a bit less rude and keep their talk quiet! It does spoil it for us…

However I do expect a few folk object to me taking photos and videos as I have to go closer to the band, I do apologise for that, but it does not affect those listening like the loud talk does…

Right my little rant is over…  The Band was magnificent what a great night…
