Rough Cut – August 31

Rough Cut – Robyn, Yorkie and Neil

Rough Cut put on a fine show with their brand new in ear monitors which gave them better sound control.

The new concept took a bit of getting used to by the band members, but the audience really appreciated the difference in the sound.

Justin Standley Band – August 17

Justin and Kerran
.

Justin Standley and his band drew a huge crowd and all four vocalists took turns to entertain the crowd.

Michelle Gardiner was invited onstage by Kerran and she sang two songs with the band.

If you get the chance to see this lineup, grab it because Justin’s records do not show what his live show is capable of. A truly memorable evening.
