Hi everyone. I get the priveledge of being the first to log a post on the blog, seeing as how Sue (my wife) set it up! I am looking forward to sharing your first National Brass Band Contest experience with you all. I can still clearly remember my first one in Wellington in 1973, and 37 years later I still enjoy the Nationals as much as ever! It is the biggest annual music festival in the country. There are 27 bands attending this year. Multiply that by the number of players and supporters, and that gives you an idea of how many bandspeople are about to decend on central Dunedin! Special best wishes to Jarrah, DJ, Fenella and Madeline for Wednesday.
Kick arse guys!
Cheers, Mike
Yes, great job Sue!
ReplyDeleteWhat an experience it will be for everyone - I remember my first Nationals (in the UK), 1974. Jarrah has seen the pictures (and medals...) looking forward to hearing the results! Slightly jealous not to be there with you. Good luck to all. Mick D
