Newsletter

The Orange Street newsletter, 7th December 2005.

November Gigs

Three gigs since the last newsletter. First up was a very successful fundraiser for the Silly Arses Scooter Club, another visit to Mr Kyps in Poole, and finally the Red Lion in Totton. Three great nights, no doubt we will be back at all venues at some point next year (we are already booked at The Red Lion for 2006).

Upcoming Gigs

Only two gigs booked for the rest of this month.

Saturday 23rd December, The ORANGE STREET CHRISTMAS PARTY, The Empire Hall, Totton.

Thursday 29th December, Jumpin' Jaks, Bournemouth.

New band members needed

We are still looking for a bass player and keyboard player. If there is anyone out there interested (or you know someone who might be), please contact Lee on 07887 531 959 to arrange an audition.

The Orange Street Christmas Party

Tickets are still available for this event, but they are selling fast. Over 220 tickets have already been sold, you have less than two weeks to get yours if you haven't already. There will be a top quality support band (The Hi Watts), us and then for those who are interested, The Red Lion will have more Ska/Reggae as well with a DJ playing until 2am. Contact Lee for tickets on 07887 531 959 (Ł5 in advance, Ł6.50 on the door).

Thanks and Congratulations

Thanks again and congratulations to Richie (our ever present stand in keyboard player) who has now officially joined Bad Manners. Thanks also to Nutty Boy for pictures from our gig at Mr Kyps.
