Had a slightly odd evening. The Bray band had been asked to play about 40mins at the Bray European Evening, which is an event out in the court yard in front of the theater and the council buildings, with stalls/stands from most European countries. It was being hosted by Bray Town Council and one of the local TDs (MPs for you non-Irish educated!). It was a fairly last minute booking for the band but the money was good so they agreed to do it. I already have too many other commitments but since it should have been over before SOS I said Id do it on the condition I had to leave at 7:30 regardless. So I get there at 6:30pm, when we've been shouted at to be there by, but feck all others turn up. At 6:45 when we were meant to start there was about 6 of us. But the event was running late, so no worries there. The previous act (a choir) finished at 7 so we started putting our stands on the stage but were told to get off as there were speaches. The Bray Town Council (I assume leader, something in Irish anyway) spoke for ages and wasn't a riviting public speaker. She shut up around 7:15 and then the TD stood up. At that point I gave up and left! I ended up going down to the car park to change as the Mermaid seemed quite full, so I'm hoping there isn't CCTV down there as I had to change t-shirt and trousers before quazar, hoping while doing so that loads of people didn't come into the carpark. They didn't but if there's a camera and my arse appears in the Bray People then oops! So all that for nothing! I assume the rest of them played at some point. At least enough of the band had turned up by then. It doesn't seem to matter how stroppy the commitee get, people still dont do what they're told!
So on to Quazar, both youth groups together. Turns out Bray Wonderers were at home so traffic was crap with all 5 of their fans queuing to park near the bowling alley. Anyway the older group (one I help with) played Quazar v the younger. Despite there being more of the younger, we completely inhialated them! Swapped a few about for the 2nd go but the score was as emphatic!
