Little Stevie and the Tail Fins @ Easts Leagues Club

On Friday January 23rd I went to Easts Leagues CLub with my Mum to see Little Stevie and the Tails which it was my second time seeing this band as my first was at Kirra on Saturday June 7th 2014 and my Mum knows Stephen as they worked at Australia Post in the 90's. Dad took us to the club, I had Nachos for dinner while Mum had Salmon Patties and Salad, went inside and use my mobile. The show started @ 7.30pm which they did 4 sets doing classic rock n roll stuff from the 50's and 60's by people like Elvis Presley,Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, Creedence, Bobby Darin,Ricky Nelson, Cliff Richard and many others which in between there were money draws and also had conversations with Stephen. The show finished at 11.30pm which me and mum said goodbye to Stephen, Dad picked us up and came home. It was an FANTASTIC show which everyone had a great time including myself and the band played great and sounding great too doing great songs as well as meeting Nadine who works there as well as Jeff who plays in the band. If you would like to see the band do yourself an favour and SEE IT which it's great hearing great music from an great era as you should enjoy it and Little Stevie will be back at Easts next Friday with his 60's show. so please come and see it which you should enjoy it too.
