Angarrack Xmas Lights Fundraiser

"A warm summer's evening, in a field, on the trailer .... it just doesn't get much better."
Agreed!

And just to prove it ... last week's Xmas Lights fundraiser at Angarrack.
Sure, we had a few power problems initially, but then if you're going to sing stuff like "Ain't
No Stopping Us Now" ("oh yes there is ..... ") what, in all honesty, do you expect.

Eventually the power flowed smoothly, we cranked everything up nice and loud, the band got into
the groove, speaker stacks swaying (somewhat precariously) in unison, car alarms going off at
120bpm, and finally some distant thunder for a little low end rumble. Perfecto!

Ultimately, being a truly all ages "friends and family" evening it ended up with the kids
boogieing around the stage and collecting autographs (if only someone had a pen!) whilst mums,
dads and everyone else danced and partyed well past midnight. Thoroughly enjoyable.

On the recording front, as well as this years recently released studio demo, we've "acquired" a
recent live recording which, whilst ostensibly recorded on the naffest portable cassette
recorder going, actually has a certain organic, raw edge to it maybe you can only get in a live
situation. We've trimmed it down to an 8 minute medley to save on download times .... well worth
a listen. DiscoinKernow Live

Big events still to come over the summer include "Atlantic Reach" this month, the festival in
Camelford in August, as well as various gigs, weddings, parties and the like around and
inbetween.
And for those planning ahead we're taking bookings for 2007.
