End of October News
Well, another month has gone and it’s been a really busy one for us. Just before we returned to the UK for our ten day tour on the 8th, we were involved in helping Bar Carmen with their charity event for the Laura appeal. It was a great night and Wendy and Harry at the bar have every reason to be really happy with the result. Over 800 euros was raised and the night was a big success. We featured in the event and it was great to work alongside Ricky Valance again. Paul Falcon was also there and we were please to be able to do the sound support for both of them. The FULL MONTY (well, it was close) and the Jazz ladies (of which Fiona was one of the great dancers on the night) made the event really special and we all had a great time.
In the UK, we completed thirteen gigs in ten days which was a bit of a challenge!! Then, it was back to Spain to formally launch the new name of our act. Since then, we have been able to use the new posters and set out a marketing strategy for the show which is very exciting.
Over the weekend of 23rd – 25th October, we were booked to be at the “This is Spain” exhibition at Hotel La Zenia. We found ourselves helping with the sound for the other acts including Flamenco dance, childrens dance groups and others. It was great fun and we enjoyed meeting everyone at the event.
We have a busy weekend to close the month with Thursdays gig at Bar Carmen, Friday at Championes bar (for the first time) and Saturday at one of our favourite regular venues, Casa Nicolas Restaurant (for Halloween). Fiona is threatening to wear her Halloween costume for this one!!
The beginning of November will see us busy as we lead up to our 30 day tour of the UK starting on the 18th. We have two hectic weekends in Spain before leaving and then the prospect of fifty one (yes 51) gigs in thirty days whilst in the UK!! When we return on 18th December, it will be staight into the Christmas season in Spain which we are really excited about.
More about all of this in the next posting (which may be late as we will be away from the computers at the end of November).
We are going to introduce a new “Products” page to the website as soon as possible. This will list all of our CDs and other products that can be ordered. We have also launched our International perfume business in association with one of the biggest producers of quality fragrances in the World, FM. You can find out more about this at either www.perfumes2you.com or www.perfumes2you.co.uk
So everyone – keep smiling and Hang Loose!
