Welcome from Sally & Barry

What happened last
week
Monday's Open Mic' Night
turned out to be the best one to date, fantastic
crowd, fantastic turn out of musicians, what a way
to finish Christmas.
 Tuesday
night New Years Eve with The Three
Amigo's & Free & Co was quieter
than we anticipated, but the people who did turn
out certainly enjoyed
themselves.
Wednesday New Years
Day got up late, back to The Runner to clean
the streamers & poppers from
everywhere.
Thursday, a quiet night no
band, just chilling out and recovering from the
festivities.
Friday night, a good night
with local band Luga who played some really
good covers of The Small Faces, Beatles and other
60's bands, you really should check these lads out
next time.
Saturday was 101 Proof
Steve Earle, The Eagles this band played some of
the best Country Rock you will hear
anywhere.
 Sunday
night The Beer Monsters who are Robin
drums, Huw bass and Paul lead guitar & vocals.
The Monsters are without a doubt the band that can
play any style of music written, and play it well.
Two hours of entertainment for free, better value
can not be had anywhere for that.

The Academy of Sound
Joke of the Week
Two girls are walking along when
they hear... "Psst! Down here!" They both look
down and see a frog sitting beside the road. The
frog says to them, "Hey, if you kiss me I'll turn
into a world famous drummer and make you both rich
and famous!" The two girls looked at each other,
and one of them reached down and grabbed the frog
and stuffed it in her pocket. The other girl said,
"What did you do that for?" The first replied,
"I'm not stupid. I know a talking frog is worth
heaps more than a famous drummer any day!!!"
