Wednesday 27th August 2014
A seven-piece RMA Dance Band was invited to perform at Lakeside on Hayling Island during the evening of 27th August. Led by Dave Clackett (tenor sax and flute) the band included RMACB stalwarts Jon Yates, Steve Tanner, Alan Ham and John Hill. Six vocalists also volunteered to gig with the band that evening all of whom were superbly professional and, in the case of the ladies, stunningly turned out in evening gowns – and the boys also looked great in their DJs! The hall was packed to capacity and there was much dancing of course, particularly during the ‘pops’ sequence to those much-loved favouritesYMCA and Amarillo. In short it was a lively, brilliantly executed gig clearly much enjoyed by all the holiday-makers and locals that evening.
