Llandudno Tour 2006
“Wouldn’t it be great to get
Stipers’ on tour. It would be a laugh.”
…. and the rest is history.
March 2006 marked Stiperstones Brass’ first International
Tour. To Wales!
Just one weekend was spent in Llandudno but I think it is
fair to say that we left our mark. I suspect the old lady knitting in the
hotel next door will not forget the first band practice starting at 9:30 on the
Friday evening.
The main Saturday event was a concert at Queen Elizabeth
Court Masonic Benevolent Home, where the band was enjoyed by a very appreciative
audience. This was only to be topped by playing in Bodnant Gardens Garden
Centre, underneath a canopy which kept the most torrential rainstorm since
Christmas from drowning the band. For some reason, the audience was smaller
and less enthusiastic at this gig!
