Dixie Mix

Dixie Mix video Stranger on the Shore…Fingers crossed!

Have just played it through and although I was a bit shaky hope you can hear the sentiments that come through from Pete's playing backed by John Kevin and Tony.

Dixie Mix…

Wow what a great night of music …out 3rd night in a row!

Janet drove  Neville (Pete's Bro) Yvonne and me to see Dixie Mix at Wangford Community Centre… I must say before I tell how really great the night was, the Community Centre and all those who look after it do a really good job and the facility is absolutely such a good venue so thank you to all who manage that and well done for raising all that money for the Church roof.

Now …
those lads who are Dixie Mix always make such an entertaining night, but think they really went over the top last night, considering Simon and some of the others were not feeling good they certainly did not show it.

I am so pleased that we managed to sit nice and close so that Neville and Yvonne could see Pete playing, so they had a good night, as did we. Yvonne wanted to hear Pete play Stranger on the Shore so I did manage to video that will try and put it on here at a later date…

Thank you boys a really great night …a few photos …Hope you can enjoy them …the lights kept changing colour so nice and varied…

The Lowestoft Players…

Last night…Janet ,Elizabeth and James treated me to yet another 80th birthday treat…Thank you so much my lovely family.

What a wonderful evening it was as well…

The Lowestoft Players are a great family of very clever artistic people but I think they outdone even their best last night at The Bethal Theatre.

They were celebrating 50 years of their showbiz magic, and 'The Sound of Musicals' was certainly magic, Congratulations to all of them, what talented people …from the staging the changes of clothes to suit all the many musicals they have performed over the years…the wonderful singing and everything about them was truly magical well done to them all could not have been better than if you saw a West End Show.

Not allowed photos  but every bit of the music scenery and everything else including the happy people that were there…I can assure you it is something everyone should see …brilliant.

Thank you to one and all and the talent of the Lowestoft Players they deserve all the awards that noda have given them.

Sole Bay Jazz Band and friends…

Another good night of live music at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham

with the Sole Bay Jazz Band…

Not a big crowd but those who came along had a really great evening of good jazz music played by talented musicians, so thank you Sole Bay for a very enjoyable evening, not too loud could hear all the different instruments clearly and some rather good tunes…

Hope all those who were unable to come along because of not being well will soon recover. Those who had other things to do you missed a good night!

Thank you Clover and Christine for the raffle and for Don folding the tickets 

with a little bit of help from me!

Happy Birthday to Tony, thank you for all the lovely sounds from that String Bass on a Thursday night…

Cannot believe you are 87 today well done and long may you continue.

Found this little photo of you, amongst a lot of others…

Sorry Tony I thought you said it was the year of the two fat ladies so assumed it was 88, have put it right as you might get the Queens letter on the wrong year!!!!
