The show started @ 8.15pm with Miss Teresa and her Rhythmares with Dan on guitar, Jon Flynn on Double bass and coojee Timms on drums which they did an 45 minute set doing an mixture of originals and covers with great singing by Teresa, great and Brilliant guitar playing by Dan, great bass playing by Jon and excellent drumming by Coojee and during the set they did an song for Nina whose birthday was yesterday. There was an interval which I had an drink of water and the first of the 2 Swedish bands that came on stage was the Domestic Bumblebees which they did an AWESOME set doing an mixture of original songs as well as covers including an instrumental version of California Sun and during their set another guitarist played an few songs as well as an piano player which sounded so good. There was another interval where I had an drink of water and bought the Harmonica Sam CD which they were selling that night. the last act of the night was Harmonica Sam which he did an AWESOME set doing original songs and covers including an great version of Rocket 88 and the Domestic Bumblebees did the back up which they were AWESOME too as well as Harmonica who not just sang great he played AWESOME harmonica.
