ANOTHER BIG WEEKEND IN STORE!

After a couple of weeks of "rest", we're gearing ourselves up for a great weekend - 2 gigs to come, and some good weather to go with it! We've spent the last couple of weeks playing with new choons, and some of them will undoubtedly get an airing in the next few days - obviously not going to say what they are, cos that would spoil the fun - suffice it to say that, in the true D&C style, they will be mainly up tempo, and familiar to most, if not all, of the crowds.

So to this weekend's gigs - Friday sees us at a private gig for AstraZeneca - a nice "loosener" for Saturday, and an opportunity for some of Paul's work colleagues to see what he gets up to in his spare time! Some of them have been threatening to come and see us for ages - let's just hope they are not disappointed! Should be a really good night - it's a leaving party for about 12 people, so I suspect spirits will be high!

Saturday sees the D&C caravan pitching up (for the 3rd successive year) at Hankinson's Field near the Leisure Centre in Congleton for the Round Table's Summer Beer Festival! This is an event that goes from strength to strength and, this year, there will be over 60 ales to sample, and they are expecting 750 or so people on what promises to be a warm and sunny evening so, if you fancy some good beer and great music (2 sets worth!), get yourselves along! The last 2 years have seen a really good atmosphere develop, and the crowds have been fantastic - never being slow to join with singing and dancing - let's hope this year is the same.

To get you in the mood, here's some photos from last year's event, and a map of how to find the "big tent"!
