New Years Eve – The Swingmasters @ Altona

Has it really been a year?

Last year I made the trip with my lovely parents over the West Gate Bridge to Altona for I think the 23rd year in a row I’ve worked NYE with them.  (not always at Altona – for many years it was the Ringwood RSL)  It’s always a great night – almost too much fun, can’t possibly be work.

We all survived another night (just !) – I got to do my favorite dances – The Bootscootin’ Boogie, Waltz across Texas, Nutbush – there was even a chicken dance ( I dashed off the floor for that one).

Thanks for another great year Mum ,Dad and Graeme – This year we were joined by Alan Smith on drums and Peter O’Brien (bass).  Missed our dear Friend and long-time Drummer Joe, as he was unwell.

Look forward to NYE 2015 – Hope everyone stays healthy!
