Greg Poppleton plays for Swing Dancers at Redfern RSL

Yesterday afternoon, Greg Poppleton & his 5-piece Bakelite Dance Band played to swing dancers and a full room of 'members & their guests' as they say in RSL-speak, at Redfern RSL Club.

I took a happy snap of the dancers from the back of the stage. The band was playing a couple of instrumental choruses during one of my songs.

The pic captures some of the excitement of the afternoon, I think. That's Dieter Vogt on double bass in the big white shirt.

Hello to Jennifer who came down to the club with a big group of friends to see the band and celebrate her birthday! Jennifer found out about the gig because she is on our mailing list.

Click 'mailing list'on the banner at the top of this page if you'd like to be in the loop, too.

That witches hat in the bottom right of the pic is my 1929 megaphone.

We'll be back at Redfern RSL, 157 Redfern Street, Redfern, right next to Redfern Station, Sunday 29 April, 3 - 6:30pm. Free!
