Short and sweet

Right, well now, again a long time has passed!

Our last gig was at the opening of the Festival of Lights in Motueka. It was a freezing, rainy night and there weren't many people out on the street - understandably! But, although my fingers were so cold I could hardly play guitar and our toes were getting frost bite, we sang on through the pain and those who stood to watch or walked passed under umbrellas, smiled at us. And a smile can warm anyone's heart (perhaps not their extremities though!)

Oh and as a bonus, (well, I thought it was a bonus) Damien O'Connor MP for Tasman, Minister for Tourism and Associate Health Minister, joined us for tea later in the evening.

We have been practising hard and getting some new songs together. Our next gig is at The Playhouse www.playhousecafe.co.nz on Sunday 24th August at 8pm. Bookings are essential and there is a $10 cover charge.

More to come soon...............
