The North Devon Leisure Centre Beer Festival rocked to an evening of toe tapping drumming and traditional tunes played by Captain Banjo's Street Band with a floor show performed by resident fire stick juggler Tim, 22nd Aug. 2009 with fundraising collections being made for the North Devon Children's Hospice.
Since Captain Banjo's Street Band were busy squeezing their melodeons, blowing their whistles and saxophones and strumming their guitars, huge thanks are due to Rose, close supporter of Mark, drummer and Elvis Presley impersonator, who stepped in to be official band photographer for the evening.
And a big hello to (strangely camera shy) street artist 'ZHE155', who was taking some time away from decorating Barnstaple street furniture with tasteful images of the feminine form and his colleague 'Unknown', who were both taking a great interest in Captain Banjo. Could it be that images of Captain Banjo might soon be replacing some of those images of the female form around Barnstaple soon?
To round off the weekend, Captain Banjo's Street Band are planning to head for The Hunters Inn, Heddon Valley, Parracombe, near Barnstaple, North Devon starting around 8 pm for an informal evening of folk tunes and songs with guitar and song master Ian Hudson.
See you there, perhaps :-)
