It was another brilliant weekend at Brid Spa - On Friday The Firebirds were on top form. They played to an enthusiastic and energetic audience and had them beggin for more. DJ the Bradford Dude kept up the pace between sets and the whole evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

On Saturday more people turned up, making if one of our busiest nights and it was the turn of Phil Haley and his Comments, who also set a fast pace with many of their classic songs. Lively and entertaining is how we would describe them.........with DJ DA doing a excellent job in keeping the dancers happy with his great music selection - it was another very successful night.

During the weekend we had a drinks raffle, main raffle, a petticoat and skirt raffle and we also sold T shirts with the logo 'Flipside Rock 'n' Roll Weekender 2011' on and we raised a total of £573.38 for the wonderful charity for seriously ill children 'When you wish upon a Star'.

Therefore we should be able to sponsor two children to go to Lapland to see Father Christmas this year. So a big thank you to you all for attending and donating to make this possible.

A special thank you to Richard and May of Razzle Dazzle for donating the petticoat, to Julia for sending the skirt, to John of Yanks for donating a Betty Boop bag and everyone who bought a T shirt as £5 for each one sold was donated to the charity. (We have a few more if anyone is still interested please let us know).

Don't forget next years event is on 22nd & 23rd June at The Whitby Pavillion with The Atlantics and The Bobcats......full details to follow.
