THE BLACK COUNTRY ACCORDION CLUB

　  

DECEMBER 17th. XMAS PARTY

Party time again and members and visitors turned out in force to enjoy the

festivities. The guest artist was Anton. a local lad renowned for his singing.

Anton’s speciality was his Pavarotti style tribute songs but due to a rather

Xmas congested programme he had to rest his voice and chose to sing popular

songs for us.

Members and guests alike were welcomed with a ‘glass’ of ‘champers’ and many

of them came bearing gifts, (raffle prizes) which enabled us to have a super display

of quality prizes on the raffle table.

Our own John Shelley began the evenings entertainment with a selection of

popular tunes followed by Anton who sang us throught to the interval.

The ‘kitchen staff’ did the club very proud with an excellent table of goodies.

A round of thanks is due to them, as we know that they had spent most of the day

cooking and preparing the food.

After the interval John Mason began his ‘comedy act’ with his pride and joy, his very

own Magieca accordion. Wearing a glistening showman’s top hat he demonstrated

the amazing accordion and earned a great round of applause. John is rapidly getting

the hang of this amazing instrument and raises an awful lot of cash for local charities.

He raised more laughter with his pet ‘ferret’ which was rather naughty.

Barry and Roy, the drummer, then did a rousing spot with a selection of tunes and

sing-alongs. With a nicely warmed up audience Anton was able to finish the evening

off in style. A very pleasant night with varied entertainment, good food and a happy

audience leaving in a festive mood, handshakes and good will all round.

BIRTHDAY PARTY

Monday January 28th.

The club’s Birthday again and we shall have a party. Everyone is invited.

ROMAN VOLOSCHUK

will be here to join in the fun. Food and Frivolity for all will be the

theme for tonight. Roman has been here before and we enjoyed him so much as he is a

great entertainer, a singer with a fine baritone voice and a fine accordionist, and that is the

reason why we have invited him back again.
