It’s hard to believe that it’s nearly time for our Christmas gig, but it’s true!
We’re pretty much sticking to our winning formula from the last few years, with a couple of changes in the rhythm section. Iain “Elf” Ewing will be joining Sue McHugh with his dulcet vocals and you can expect a few duets, as the pair really love singing together! And of course it wouldn’t be a Festive Sextet without Colin “Crimbo” Steele on trumpet. Campbell “Cracker” Normand is on keys, Roy “Rudolph” Percy on double bass and Tom “Tinsel” Gordon on drums. A perfect line-up to kick off the festive season!
Nearly half the available tickets were sold at last Saturday’s show, and the rest have been taken to Far From The Madding Crowd (20 High Street). There are also some on TicketSource for those who can’t get to the bookshop.
As ever, the fun takes place in the Queen Margaret Hall (see the About section for details) and doors open at 7pm for a 7:30pm start, running till around 10pm. Don’t forget the night is BYOB (and glasses, and snacks etc – although the Xmas show’s ticket proce includes a glass of fizz at the interval). So do stock up, or give yourselves time to nip across the road to the supermarket! Tea/coffee is also available at the break.
