Fabulous Sounds of the 60's @ Carina Leagues Club

On Saturday July 28th I went to Carina Leagues Club to see the Fabulous Sounds of the 60's with Darren J ray and the Love Bugs which it was my 14th time seeing the show as well as my 16th and it's my second time seeing the Fabulous Sounds of the 60's show this year and also 3rd time this year too. The show started @ 8pm with greg Newman doing the compere and for the next 2 and half hours did 2 FANTASTIC sets of great songs from the Seekers, The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Glen Campbell, The Bee Gees, the Delltones,Gene Pitney,the Mamas and the Papas, CLiff Richard and others and the Love Bugs always do set of the girl group songs by the Supremes, Dusty Springfield, the crystals,the chiffons and others and in the first set there was an music trivia which this time I won an record which was an Seekers vinyl when I answered the question who was playing drums on Happy jack which i said Keith Moon as well as Hippy allan walking through the audience when they were doing the psychedelia set and Greg Newman dressing up as Charlie Watts, an Japanese guy and even am Guy named Harold Wilson who jokingly the 4th Wilson brother of the Beach boys. this show was the last for Love Bug Nicole who is going to Universal Studios which it's great to see her doing that is worth an opportunity and she will be missed by all who have her seen live whether be with Darren or Abbalive and also she has an great future ahead which I hope she will do well. The show finished @ 10.38pm which the band doing Hey Jude with the Love bugs wearing the Beatles shirt which looked great and after the show said hello to Darren, Scotty, Heidi,Kaitlyn,Geneieve and Nicole and meeting Hannah who is an friend of Heidi's.
