  3. Armistice Day Parade - Earlstown

    Thank to all those who turned out on Sunday last (11th) to travel to Earlstown for the parade organised by the Netwon Le Willows Sea Cadets.
    I don't think that we played really well. "But I think we may have got away with it". Obviously we need to get back to rehearsing playing on the march don't you think.
    Congratulations to Cai and Nathan who did very well considering this was their first parade. We definitely need some new drummers so if you have any friends who you think might like to take up the sticks then mention it to them. Recommendation is the best form of recruitment.

  4. Competition?

    In the vain hope that people might use the site for a discussion on entering the concert band competition (Gareth being optimistic?) I've set up this article for that purpose, and copied Natalie's post to the comments. If anyone has an opinion stick in the comments to this article.

    Yeah. :-)

    • Faster? Like what? You just want to see the cornet players go all red in the face, don't you?

      Gareth 05/11/2007

    • I think that choice sounds good. Any possibility of playing something a little faster which shows us off a bit too?

      Helena 03/11/2007

    • We're going to the competition :-)

    • The TYMBA Concert Band Contest is on Sunday 24th February 2008 at the Artrix Theatre, Bromsgrove, Worcs.
      15 Bands will be taking part.
      Music surely must include: Mr Cellophane (Full); Gabriel's Oboe, BOB, All that Jazz?

    • So... when and where is the competition???

      Wanda 30/10/2007

    • Never many comments unfortunately. :-(
      So, what music should we play folks? (Not that I'm determined to get people to use the site or anything ;-)

      Gareth 30/10/2007

    • Not many comment, eh?
      Never mind as it appears our entry to the competition has been accepted.

      Jeffrey 30/10/2007

    • No way Gareth. If anyone has to spectate it will have to be me. I'm sure someone could play the EB Bass just this once. Best players first

      Jeffrey 25/10/2007

    • Yeah, I reckon we should. Even if we get splattered into the floor, competitions are always a bit of fun. And we haven't done any in AGES. :-(
      Only 4 over 25s though and Nick would count as one being the conductor. I may have to spectate.

      Gareth 25/10/2007

    • So are we going to the TYMBA concert band competition? I think we should!!

  5. Thanks

    Thanks to you all for turning out for the concert at Bodelwyddan Church last night (Thursday 11th Oct)It looks as though we have raised over £400 for the Ronald McDonald House at Alder Hey. I think that everyone that attended enjoyed the music and on the whole I think that we played well. (Hey, what's a few bum notes among friends eh, MR SIMON JOHNSON)
    I was very pleased with your turnout and I trying to arrange some more bookings for the band.
    Thanks again.
