Thus ended the first half ... thank you to all our players today.

Our guest artist was Dave Hallam accompanied by Damien Shalfoon on drums and Guy Halpe on double bass and bass guitar. The trio thoroughly entertained us with many jazz renditions. They commenced with 'Day's Of Wine and Roses' and included lots of favourites, 'Angel Eyes', 'One Note Samba', 'Wave',  'Beyond The Sea', 'I Can't Give You Anything But Love', 'till There Was You' to name a few and ended with a medley of sing-a-longs 'White Cliffs Of Dover', 'I'll Be Seeing You' and 'We'll Meet Again'. I hope we do all meet again guys! You all gave us a very polished performance, very enjoyable and we look forward to hearing you again at the club.
