A special music evening put on by John Jeffrey in celebration of his 'big' birthday.
There was a good turnout of family, friends and musicians to help celebrate. The performers were John himself, Fraser Littlewood, Mike Jessop, Maurice Baker, Gerry Beldon and family, Beeswing, Phil Graham & David Pratt (two thirds of Tri), Shearwater, ourselves and finally Acoustica. Solo performers were given two songs with duos, etc being given 18-minute slots... with a little more for the last act of the night. John managed to keep most of the performers to their time allocations, and Acoustica finished the evening in style and pretty much bang on time... well done!
We played 'Back Home To You' (Allan Taylor), 'Passin Thru' (Johnny Cash & Randy Scruggs), our latest song 'When' (jiva) finishing off with 'One More Song' (jiva). Again we had the whole room joining in with the choruses and the men versus women competition for 'One More Song' was great fun. Thanks to everyone who joined in.
John does a great job organising these events and promoting live music - hats off to you, John... what you're doing is very much appreciated and you deserve an extra round of applause.
