Guitar Concert 2006

Below are photos and video clips from the concert we held on the 6th September 2005 at Down Thomas Village Hall. An audience of 100 family, friends, and local music enthusiasts gathered to watch the evening performance.

Our third guitar concert was even better than ever, performances were exceptional and we had a professional sound engineer and sound system. As ever, Jon Benney was on drums, learning 15 songs from scratch for the concert! I was able to stay in the audience and watch this year as I left students who were competent to keep together on guitar, bass and singing - fortunate indeed that I didn't get to sing much this year ;0)
