WOW! WHAT A FANTASTIC NIGHT OUT I HAD WITH LUCY AND PAUL.AT THE SANDS VENUE IN BLACKPOOL ON FRIDAY EVENING.THE MEAL WAS ABSOLUTELY FIRST CLASS AS ALWAYS - A THREE COURSE MEAL WAS SERVED WITH THE COURTESY AND CHARM OF THE STAFF, WHO I MUST ADMIT, WERE VERY PLEASANT, AND IN SUCH A BEAUTIFULL PLACE,Y OU COULD NOT HELP BUT THINK,YOU WERE IN A VENUE IN LONDON,OUR CAPITAL CITY. BUT NO - WE WERE IN BREEZY BLACKPOOL ON OUR OWN FYLDE COAST. YOU REALLY HAVE TO SEE THIS PLACE IT IS AMAZING!
NOW FOR THE LIVE SHOW: IT WAS THE KOMMITMENTS SOUL BAND,AND WHAT A BAND,//IT IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE SEEN THEM,BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU,IT WILL NOT BE THE LAST. FROM THE MINUTE THEY CAME ON STAGE,TO THE LAST MINUTE, I COULD NOT KEEP STILL,THE MUSIC WAS JUST MAGIC.
THEY PLAYED SONG AFTER SONG & THE TALENT ON STAGE WAS AMAZING TO SAY THE LEAST. THE THREE GIRL SINGERS WERE AT THEIR BEST ON THE NIGHT AND EACH ONE OF THEM HAD THEIR OWN STYLE OF VOICE.
THE MALE VOCALIST - WHO WAS IN HIS OWN CLASS FOR ME - WAS /SOUL MAGIC. THE MUSICIANS EACH HAD THEIR OWN SPOT OF SOLOS AND EVERYONE OF THEM TREATED THE AUDIENCE TO MUSIC THAT THRILLED US ALL.
OF COURSE,JOHN ON THE TRUMPET WAS FANTASTIC,AS WAS PAUL THE PIANIST,WHO BOTH PLAY AT THE TEA DANCE ON TUESDAY AFTERNOONS EVERY WEEK. BUT TO FINISH IT OFF OF COURSE ALL THE BAND,WERE EXCELLENT.
SO COME ON YOU PEOPLE OF BLACKPOOL: GET DOWN TO THE SANDS VENUE, AND HAVE A TASTE OF NIGHT LIFE IN LONDON, HERE IN YOUR OWN LOCAL AREA, AND BE ENTERTAINED AND DINED,IN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL VENUE.
HANNAH AND HER WONDERFUL STAFF.JUST LIKE BEING AT THE RITZ.ANY AGE GROUP WOULD LOVE THIS EVENT,YOU MUST GIVE IT A TRY,AND BELIEVE ME YOU WILL CERTAINLY NOT BE DISAPPOINTED - I SURELY WASNT.
MANY THANKS TO ALL AT THE SANDS FOR GIVING ME A NIGHT TO REMEMBER.
