Following on from the very successful annual 'Back To The Sixties' shows since 2008, we now stage a 'fab' afternoon as we said back in the day! Enjoy the amazing sounds from the Pop Pickers - One of the busiest groups in the South, featuring a great line-up of musicians who got together after many decades of playing with a variety of other top musicians across many years. The Pop Pickers are a four piece band established in 2015, having played in excess of 500 gigs around the south coast of England
Brilliant 60s group who appeared on our annual 'Back to the Sixties' show 2024. Following this we had several requests to have them back again - so here they are! Their set-list for this afternoon will naturally be pure Sixties hits of course....guaranteed floor-fillers as usual.
David St John will be singing many great Sixties hits to get you joining in and dancing away - whatever takes your fancy! Interspersed with comedy with plenty of local gags plus jogging the memories of the local dance halls that many will remember- if of a certain age. Taking you back to the days of the Royal Pier, Banister Ballroom, Guildhall, Top Rank Suite, Empire Hall Totton, Imperial Ballroom Eastleigh, Marlands Hall and many more. You can twist, shake, stomp, twitch or just do the hand jive if you are taking a breather when sitting back down.
David can also handle a few requests so let him know any of your favourite singers, groups or songs on the day – maybe your first record ever bought? When you played your vinyl 45s and LPs on the old Dansette record player or just listened to Radio Luxembourg on the transistor radio underneath the bedclothes? Bring back memories of hearing the jukebox in the Checkpoint Cafe by the Bargate or at the Kasbah Coffee Bar on London Road. Feel free to share your own memories on the day on the mike.
Better still - come dressed in your own Sixties gear with prizes for best outfits. Kaftans with beads, bells and flowers in your hair (if any left!) Maybe Afghan coats smelling of Patchouli Oil waving joss-sticks? Plus if you were a Mod - a Rocker or a Mocker? No punch-ups in the car park please!
