Well done to Kontaani - well played!
It was touch and go with the weather on Saturday and as we couldn't all fit on the stage we were at the mercy of the elements.
During a break in the drizzle we decided to go for it and risk playing before the next down pour.
We were so lucky, we set up fast in amongst the audience and played 5 numbers which were very well received! We ended on a high and much to our delight, to raucous applause and requests for 'more'!
Our colourful backdrop was the end of a huge rainbow which appeared while we were playing - beautiful!
We did have one criticism - we didn't play for long enough! Can't be bad if thats the only one!
We went down a storm and have been asked to do another local gig next year by which time we will be even better and have more rhythms in our repertoire.
The other bands were superb and I for one had a fabulous time throwing some mad shapes on the car park dance floor - just hope the tarmac is still intact!
Thank you to Sheila and Karen for inviting us to play and to a wonderful encouraging audience - we had a great night!
