Next Gig Friday 30 July 2010 – Alan’s Last Hurrah
by Webmaster on Jun.17, 2010, under News
It’s been a while we know, but we’ve got a gig planned for Friday 30 July so stick it in your diaries!
We are playing at the annual Picnic in the Paddock charity event at Mill Corner Farm, Mill Lane, Tidmarsh (near the Greyhound Pub).
What more could you want? A picturesque Thames-side setting, drinking a Pimms (or a beer or a glass of wine or whatever!) whilst listening to the area’s favorite band!
Tickets can be purchased on the door for £15 or if you fancy getting them early, £10 if you contact Alison Boyland on 0118 984 5202 or Jenny Cope on 07747 775 900. There will be a Real Ale and Pimms bar too but you’ll have to bring your own picnic and seating.
And it’s for a good cause – all proceeds go to Teenage Cancer Trust. Parking is free and opens at 6:30pm.
The gig will be bittersweet however as it’s Alan’s ‘last hurrah’. Alan has had to move north for family reasons so this is going to be the last time he will sing with the band. Alan has been with the band for three years so it’s the end of a era and it will be a somewhat sad day for all of us. But you can be sure we’ll give him a rocking send off!
We’ve been busy looking for someone to replace Alan and we are happy to say that we’ve found someone! So if you can’t make this gig to say goodbye to Alan, we hope you can make the next gig to say hello to Ed. We’ll let you all know when that happens but in the meantime, keep visiting our website!
Looking forward to seeing you all on the 30th.
