There's an excellent dance floor at Redfern. And plenty of dancers took advantage of it

Is it congratulations? Or better luck next time?

If you couldn't come on July 15, we hope to see you at Redfern for an afternoon of Swing & Jazz with the 5-piece Greg Poppleton & his Bakelite Dance Band on our next visit, Sunday 9 September, 3pm. FREE

Band plays at Annual Conference Dinner for Crown Prosecutors

The 6-piece Bakelite Dance Band played for dinner and dancing at the Watersedge Restaurant, The Rocks, for the Crown Prosecutors' Annual Conference Dinner

Requirements were that the 6-piece band play very quietly for dinner so that guests could talk, and moderately for the dance set

The Watersedge is a very loud and reverberant room with a glass wall overlooking Sydney Harbour and the Harbour Bridge

However, the 6-piece band achieved the low volume level the client required. And the dance floor filled when dinner was over.

A very successful night which left the client very happy
