The gig was a sellout - call back for photos, video and the like.
Here's the missive from Jim :
"All
Just wanted to let you all know that we raised £570 on Thursday night.
This will be divided equally between Cure For Parkinsons and St Oswalds Hospice.
Thanks to everyone for helping raise this amount.
Cheers
The Abominable Showmen
---------------------------------------------
All
We just wanted to thank everyone for a great night last night.
We had a brilliant time and we hope you enjoyed yourselves.
I’m not sure exactly how much we have made as I still have some to come in but I’ll let you all know as soon as I find out.
As usual we would like to thank the following…..
Graeme Bell and Tim Hines for setting up and manning the PA,
The Centre For Life for letting us have the room for free and to all the staff for their help,
Tom and Mike for selling shirts and tickets
And especially to all you that came along, bought shirts, tickets, copious amounts of alcohol and helped make it such a brilliant night.
Thanks
Chris, Richie, Stephen and Jim"

Abominable Showmen - Next Gig 26th November 2009
The supported charities for this gig are St. Oswald's Hospice and Cure Parkinsons Trust.
From Jim
"All
Just a quick note to let you know that the SSS band The Abominable Showmen are playing at the Centre For Life on November 26th.
The room will not be as big as it was last time as we will have it partitioned off so the number of tickets will be less than previous gigs (about 120 – 130 I think but I need to confirm this)
I know it’s a few weeks away but let me know if you would like a ticket, they are £4 each, with all profits being donated to charity (to be decided)
As usual we will be selling shirts as well and they will be around £10 each depending on how many orders we receive.
The gig will have an 80’s theme to it (although not all the songs will be from that era) and the T-shirts will reflect this.
Let me know if you want any tickets and if you want shirts please let me know what size.
Thanks
Jim
