Hoping to see some of you guys and gals at Jet's 70th birthday party at Weston-super-Mare tomorrow. Maybe we should have some sort of secret sign or somesuch or we won't realise that we might be sitting right next to someone we know from Shadowmusic. Maybe we could all wear badges! A secret handshake perhaps?!
Anyway, I hope to meet some of you there. It should be a really good night.

Watch out for those Mangel Wurzels - pesky little critters!

Here is one of the many photos and videos I took on the day, what a great evening out and an appreciative crowd of like-minded fans to enjoy it. Congratulations to Dave Holbrook for all the organisation and a special thanks to him and Leo's Den for the commemorative CD we each received.

First time seeing these guys and well worth the visit:


THE RAPIERS

Will be posting videos shortly, still going through the material I have. Keep popping back.

The Rapiers suddenly lined up for the pic without any prompting - thanks guys (The Rapiers) and if you want the original let me know.

Here is the first of the video files from Jet's birthday bash in W.S.M. Hope you all enjoy.....



NB: If you can see an HQ button on the video control panel, please use it as this improves the quality of the picture.

Here are the remaining 3 videos suitable for publishing and then some stills to follow. All videos and pics were taken using a simple Fujifilm digital camera that just happens to take videos as well so well chuffed with these results. Hope you all enjoy them.....

SCARLETT O'HARA


DIAMONDS

B.B.
Thank you so much for posting the video clips. Just magic.

Jet, thank you so, so much for continuing to entertain us at the ripe old age of ... - you make an ageing fan in the colonies so very happy. We seldom get to see our guitar heroes and appreciate all your efforts to keep the music we know and love, alive.
Please keep it up!
Congratulations on achieving your milestone and Best Wishes.
JB

Thanks for posting those. I've only just got to see them.

I can't make out who's on keys. Can you enlighten me?

Thanks,

Bob.

Hi Bob

I am not sure of his name but he was Jet's MD for many years I gather.
