Spectacular event in itself. Andrews Supper Club Nights.
You turn up to the North Tamworth Bowling Club. Pay your $18.00 door charge, and sit down to watch a night of wonderment unfold, and when you leave you know you've just witnessed something quite unique. You have truly been entertained.
ost of the time there are seasoned performers who've travelled the world, and who have just called into Tamworth on the way to some other far away place. These guys and gals all have something different to offer. Sultry Jazz, swing, bit of classical, cajun, celtic and sometimes pure unadulterated FOLK. I'm not a FOLK girl at heart I have to admit, but there IS something for everyone.
Andrew also offers the opportunity for the young talent he's seen on the main street of Tamworth - they've usually been busting their guts in the heat all day long, to make some money, or sales or possibly to "get noticed". Well they get a chance to strut their stuff, and they're always given a huge round of applause - because they're usually A MAZ ING!!
It's all good.
The musicians I had on my night.. I just don't know their names. but they'd never played with me and we didn't know what would happen.... but it was lots of fun.
On this particular night I played Louisiana Saturday Night and Panhandle Rag. Yay. Everyone liked it, and even the musos had some fun.
A few nights later Mark and Tami got up and jammed with a fine lineup of musos. It started out as one person, and built up to an 11 piece band by the end of the song..
Thanks for fun Andrew.
A treasure having you there Marian! As always!

And to help out we had Chris Rogers (Mildura Soundtrap) on Dobro; Arlene Fletcher (Turkish Delight) on Double Bass, Carl Pannuzzo (Totally Gourdgeous & Pot'nKettle) and Ronnie Rindo on Drums; and I got to Fiddle about! What a fellowship with Matt Zarb & the youth & young 40 year olds, lol. Much love from the tall one. See
