Whispering jack tribute show @ Carina Leagues Club





On Friday night September 30th I went to see the Whispering jack tribute show @ Carina leagues Club which it was my first time seeing it. i had heard about the show but had never seen it and I remember Sammy Clarke who works @ carina leagues Club telling me about bringing it there when i had my hair shaved for the Shave For A Cure on saturday march 12th this year. the show started with support act name Cliffy who actually performs @ carina Leagues Club did an set of clasic pop/rock hits which he was really good and there was an interval which i had an Apple and Blackcurrant juice to drink. then the Whispering Jack tribute started with Mike Vee who is from Tamworth came on stage which he did an FANTASTIC 2 sets of classic John Farnham songs from the 60's-2000's as well as one of his own songs and everyone was having an great time including myself which during the first set my cousin David sat next to me having an bottle of coke. the band was FANTASTIC including Cliffy on guitar and Coco on background vocals and the show finished @ 11.30pm which he had CD's on sale after the show. People went to say hi to Mike which i met him and got an free poster and a photo with him. it was an FANTASTIC show which i would recommend this show to any one who wants to see an tribute show to john Farnham and I look forward to seeing this show again in the future.
