STOP PRESS

Late notice gig at the Highlander, Minster has been confirmed (Saturday 31st July) the pub is now under new management so we'd like to prove live music pays - so if anyone needs a lift from Warden let us know we have some seats available in the tour bus.

Not forgetting our Friday (30th July) gig at The Trafalgar hope to see you there. All those that make both gigs will be presented with a FREE drrinKa badge and keyring!

OWLSTOCK

Owlstock Owlstock took place on Saturday 3rd July in the grounds of Owletts country house in Cobham, Kent and was organised to raise money for the local Elleanor Hospice, drrink! provided the PA, lighting and back line and also played 2 sets to entertain the crowds, the first set as The Damaged Dads, which featured a five piece line up including the legendary Mickey Norman on bass and the second set as the full on drrinK!, 450 locals attended the event and as well as dancing to drrinK!, they were also entertained by a young opera singer called Mathew from the X Factor, the excellent band ‘The Rising’ plus a display from the Eagle Heights Owls, the weather was glorious and the band helped raise over £3500 for the local hospice, all from donations from the locals on the night……….

And so thanks to all the back room boys and gals who built the stage, sorted the parking, made the signage, manned the collection points, made the tea and drank the GUINNESS and also for our friend Chris Spree for organising the event……..

However the highlight of Bony Flair’s night came when drrinK were onstage and a trained gun dog arrived through the crowd with a can of cold Guinness in its mouth.

Thanks once again to our publicist John Perkins for taking the photos there's a selection on site or see them all  on on Picasa
