Rock With Laughter Concert info

9th - Rock with Laughter Concert

The gate opens at 5pm with showtime at 7.30pm. The Master of Ceremonies is one of Britain’s most familiar comic faces, the ubiquitous Lenny Heny and helping him to keep the smiles on your faces will be Jasper Carrott. For those who like something alternative there’s the anarchic Jo Brand.

The musical delights will come from 'The Manfreds' featuring the original pin-up singers Paul Jones and Mike d’Abo (5-4-3-2-1, Mighty Quinn, Pretty Flamingo), the sultry Elkie Brooks with her band, plus The Blockheads (Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick, Sex & Drugs & Rock ‘n’ Roll, Reasons To Be Cheerful) along with comic-singer and Buzzcocks team leader Phill Jupitus.

To end the night The Bootleg Beatles complete with their orchestra will be
re-creating the sounds of the Fab Four.

This is a show with something for everyone. So bring your picnic and join us to rock with laughter...
