COMBINED BANDS DAY in Ballina!

It’s that time of year again, when we get together with our neighbours/fellow regional players from Ballina to share tunes & inspire each other ….

There’ll be a morning of performances by both the Lismore City Concert Band & the Ballina Shire Concert Band, whereby we’ll each be each others’ audience as the other plays a prepared set of impressive tunes … Followed by a shared lunch BBQ … Followed some more by a joint session where we all play together & learn some new tunes from each other.

Although this is not an official performance, the public is welcome to attend, especially friends & family of the bands &/or aspiring players who are thinking of joining a community band.

These annual Combined Band Days are always relaxing enjoyable get-togethers … They provide a great sense of solidarity (as fellow players & community members) & tend to reinforce everyone’s commitment to musical craft.  We look forward to seeing you all there!  😉

 

* Any folks with special dietary needs (such as vego or gluten-free, etc) may wish to bring along their own lunch or ingredients for the BBQ … Otherwise, a general sausage sizzle will be provided for lunch.
