Get Sorted Charity Fundraiser Concert

As the Get Sorted fundraiser concert draws nearer, Geoff Barnsley Get Sorted chairman sent round this update last week!

"Hi All,
 
You may remember that I circulated a note about a Charity Fundraiser that we are holding on Friday 11th of November. Attached is a poster promoting the event and below is a little blurb about the acts that are on (not written by me in case you think my ego is getting the better of me). Tickets are going extremely well and we will have a limit in the club so if you are planning to attend please let me know so I can reserve you tickets. They are £5 each or you can reserve a table for 10 at £50. Here is the blurb...
 
For anyone around Sheffield, you may be familiar with some of the artists. Ali Heath Cook is an established female vocalist who has been singing for so many years that she can't remember ! Over the years she has performed both in a solo capacity and in many local bands. Ali is a professional vocal tutor, renowned for her successes with her students, and is a part-owner of the Yellow Arch Studios in Sheffield. Geoff Barnsley is a regular performer in and around Sheffield, his most recent outings being at The Greystones and Trippett's. Together with guitar virtuoso Chillo Angelini he heads up local band 'Vigilante', playing a selection of distinguished material from artists such as Ry Cooder, John Martyn, Dire Straits and Joe Cocker. 'Bluesrites' are father and sons act Danny, Todd and Sam, playing Rhythm'n'Blues classics spanning from the 1950's. We also have a short set from a Blues Brothers Tribute act. 

In addition some of the kids from Get Sorted will be performing a short set to show you what they can do. 

All in all, it should be a cracking night. I look forward to hearing from you, and hope that you can support this worthy cause. 

And as for the significance of the date, well this one "goes up to 11" as Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap once famously said... 

Please let me know if you would like to come as when we hit our limit we will have to stop selling tickets. 

Geoff!"
