Sole Bay Jazz Band…

A rather nice evening of live music at The Sports Pavilion Ditchingham with the Sole Bay Jazz Band… a pleasant time with five talented musicians, nice lot of different music and they all looked like they enjoyed themselves, as we who were there did.

Sadly only a few turned out to watch the live music, but of course football may have kept some away… BUT you know if you do not support groups of all types of music they will fade away, so hopefully next week a few more live music fans will attend.

Good raffle as always thanks Clover and Christine… and the boys for the ticket folding.

Emily is getting used to us now and nice and cheerful as well. Thanks for your help..

Photos not great again however Fudge has a good one on FB.

Sole Bay Jazz Band evening…

Last evening the Sole Bay Jazz Band once again played for us a rather good night of Jazz, and Barry gave us some smooth vocals…I had a bad head so maybe did not appreciate as much as I usually do, and we had some loud talkers who rather spoilt it but of course it is a club so must expect that. But as always some great playing from all…

Not so many folk there, but then it was a lovely evening of sunshine so maybe it stopped a few from coming along, also illness and holidays, hope things pick up for the band as we are so lucky to have such talented musicians to play live for us every week, and they do appreciate that your raffle money helps too.

Not sure if should say this but as I have been (I hope) promoting the band for many years and I am sure Alan would not mind…If there are any young musicians out there who look in here, or on the Face Book Sole Bay Band post that Fudge does… maybe come along and see what goes on, after all it might be good to have a few younger players to learn and have a little play with these great musicians.

Thanks to Clover and Christine for the raffle another really nice one.

Lovely Emily getting used to us all now …nice smile and thanks for your help Emily. Jon seems nice and happy he does not have to step in!!

Thanks Don and Jan who helped with the ticket folding, and Mavis and Peter for the yummy fruit…

A few photos…… Nice Canary Yellow shirt Derek ……Fudge got some great shots on her FB page.
