Club night 29 July

It already seems such a long time since the festival, and definitely time for some more music in Newport. Despite Greg O'Leary's forced rest and a few regulars away at a reunion dinner, the hall was still quite full with many familiar faces and some newcomers.

There was plenty to listen to and participate with right from the start through to the end at 11 pm. Highlights for me included newcomer Dennis who performed a couple of familiar numbers, Mark singing one of his freshly penned comedy numbers "I want to sing in the opera", and Sarah and Bernard recently back from their tour of western Victoria performing Dark Eyes and A Whiter Shade of Pale. There was a song about sleep deprivation, poetry, boomwhackers, bush orchestra, blues and Elvis - nobody can say NFF club night is predictable!
