Tickets are still available for tomorrow's dance

Tickets are still available for tomorrow's dance with 'Steady Edd & The Boogie Men' (expanded line-up including brass section) tomorrow night in Leominster. If you want to book them at the 'pre-booked' rate of £8, ring me (01432 357859) by 5.00pm tomorrow and leave your name and number of tickets required on my answermachine and I'll leave them on the door for you. Otherwise they'll be available for sale at £10 on the door. It should be a good night with lots of great music to dance to. Hope to see you there!

Steady Edd & The Boogie Men - Leominster, 14th December

There's just one week to go to get your tickets for our last dance of this year. The fabulous 'Steady Edd & The Boogie Men' will be playing at The Royal British Legion Club, Leominster on Friday, 14 December - venue details on separate tab above. The band have played several near capacity dances for us in Hereford, and are bringing their 'expanded line-up' to Leominster, with an extra brass section of 2 sax and a trumpet to give more 'oomph and bite' (to quote Edd). They're always great to dance to and create a great atmosphere playing a real mix of music, from boogie-woogie, swing, rock 'n roll, r&b, jazz, etc ... all geared to dancing. As usual, ring Susan on 01432 357859 or email herefordjive@btinternet.com, or get tickets at jive classes around the Herefordshire area. They are £8 in advance or £10 on the door - so don't leave it too late to book. See you there!

Jiveoholics Dance in Hereford TONIGHT

There's still a few tickets available for this dance, so you can turn up on the door - price £10, if not pre-booked. Full details are in my previous post below. It should be a good night, so hopefully see you there.

The Jiveoholics, Sunday 18 November, Hereford

Don't leave it too late to get your tickets to see the fabulous 'Jiveoholics' who play our next dance on Sunday, 18 November at The Richmond Club, Hereford (see separate tab for venue details). The Monmouth based band bill themselves as the hottest jump jive and swing dance in Wales, and their packed dances show this to be true - they sold out for us in Hereford last year - so make sure you get your ticket in time. Ring me on 01432 357859 or email herefordjive@btinternet.com or see Coolmoves Dance Jive teachers at Bartestree, Ludlow, Bishop's Frome, Leominster or Leigh & Bransford. See www.jiveoholics.co.uk for sample tracks and band info. Hope to see you there.
