So its the Sixties all over again at Butlins minehead,we really enjoy being a part of these festivals which are held at various times throughout the year! This weekend from what we could gather,had been very good with a great line up of top acts gracing the many stages within the Butlins complex.We heard some sad news that one of our friends from another band had had a bereavement in the family which meant they had to cancel at very short notice,but after a quick reshuffle everything was back on track.We were due to perform as the last act(headlining so to speak)on at centre stage,but with it being such a late performance time,12.00 midnight,and the fact it was a Sunday night(everyone leaving early due to work commitments Monday morning)we didnt hold much hope of having a large audience.We line checked and got into position............"Ladies and Gentleman...." The curtains opened and....it was packed,with everyone right up to the front of the stage jostling for a better view.We struck up and it was party time,everyone singing and dancing,waving their arms clapping,the atmosphere was nothing short of spectacular,for that window of one hour we could have been the real Beatles!!!!!! All too soon it was over and we left the stage to a crescendo of applause and cheers,what a great night! We really enjoyed ourselves,and cant wait for the next one.
Our deepest sympathies go out to DOZY,BEAKY,MICK AND TITCH.
