Take That, Beatles... and ... Poynton Band!

As the band's concert schedule winds down over Summer its always good to finish on a high, and as usual we managed it with style, playing to thousands at two high profile outdoor events.

Saturday 15th June saw the band as one of the headline acts at the annual Party in the Park organised by Poynton Rotary. Alongside Want U Back (Take That tribute band) the band entertained the 2000 or so people who had come along for an evening of great music, dancing and fun. As usual the band finished off the night with a Last Night of the Proms set, seeing the whole park bobbing up and down to the Sailors Horn Pipe, and singing and flag waving to Rule Brittania and Jerusalem! The event will once again have raised lots of money for worthy causes and we will see you all there again next year!

Just two weeks later the band were out the beautiful surroundings of Nether Alderley in another field! This time performing with the Backbeat Beatles at the Brass & Beatles festival. Several hundred people were there singing and dancing (and running round the field pretending to be fighter pilots as the band played Dambusters!), once again raising money for 4 great causes. It had been mentioned that this may be the last time that this event is to have been held, however, this has been said before and it keeps on coming back... and at the end of the evening the organiser did say that having seen how much everyone enjoyed themselves it may be worth doing again soon!! Hopefully this wonderful fun event will continue for a few years yet!
