Terrific show Saturday night with Greg Andrew and his Elton John Experience show at RSL Club Southport.
The crowd really got into hearing the timeless classics of Elton John, singing along and dancing in front of the stage. And if you didn't know any better and happened to just walk into the showroom, you would have thought you were watching the real Sir Elton on stage such is the uncanny resemblance of Greg Andrew to the music superstar.

Some photos from Thursday night's fun time party at the Pan Pacific Masters Games here on the Gold Coast where the Hot Potato Band provided the entertainment. I first saw these guys in early 2016 at Surfers Live and was impressed then but last night I was totally blown away by their sound and performance - they were fantastic. And they know how to involve the audience and make them part of the show.
"Although difficult to describe their genre, HPB continues to compile their arsenal of songs inspired by Pop, Funk, Ska, Reggae and bound by the classic sounds of New Orleans brass bands.
The bands unique sound is built on the backs of three drummers and a sousaphone, along with an array of horns covering catchy chorus lines and providing a layered harmonic cloud for Ben (vocalist) to float above. They are a band never to shy from a good time."

Now this show took me back to my surfing days at Bondi Beach and the music I grew up with. Great show put on by The Beach Boyz at South Tweed Sports Club. The first strum on the guitar had hardly been struck and the dance floor in front of the stage was full - and they were doing the twist, mashed potato, the swim, the monkey, the watusi to name just some of the old dance moves on display.
Great night, highly recommend, will certainly catch these guys again in the not too distant future

Rebecca O'Connor as Tina Turner is SIMPLY THE BEST. There are not enough superlatives to describe this show. If Tina Turner had a twin sister her name would be Rebecca O'Connor.
This was a show that had everything - great music, lots of energy, full-on audience participation - BUT, if you didn't know better you would have thought you were watching Tina Turner on stage.
Endorsed by both Tina Turner and Mick Fleetwood, you very quickly understand why this is so the moment Rebecca takes the stage.

Some photos from Monday night's fun time party at the Pan Pacific Masters Games here on the Gold Coast where Captain WOW entertained around 1500 competitors after a day of competition. Nick, Courtney, Shonay Raynham, and Jodie really had the crowd on their feet singing and dancing to songs participants at the Games grew up with.

Great show last night with The Beatlegs at CSI Club Southport. These guys are the real deal, full of life and laughter on stage - and they had the full house on the dance floor from the first strum of the first song.
Listening to songs like "Hey Jude" and "She Loves You, Yea, Yea Yea" was great but the standout song for me again was "A Day In The Life".
This was the third time I have seen this group in the past three years and definitely look forward to seeing them again when next they are in town.

Great dinner show at the Surfers Paradise Golf Club with music provided by The Australian Eagles Show. The group had the full house out of their seats and dancing all night long!
What a great night of nostalgia, was able to sit back and listen to some terrific tunes from the very early 70's from one of my favourite bands, The Eagles. This group were a joy to watch and reminded me of the various compilation tapes I once made all those years ago from my vinyl records.

What an energetic and entertaining show this morning. Paul Hayman certainly knows how to turn it on and what better place to do it than in a close to capacity auditorium known as the Twin Towns Showroom. You know you have a success on your hands when the audience are singing along and clapping their hands reminiscing as the songs of yesteryear are being performed on stage with choreographed dance moves by Kylie Hayman-Wall.
A privilege to again have the opportunity to 'shoot' Paul and his "Not Strictly Ballroom" show. And how lucky is Paul to have his talented wife Kylie on stage dancing with him.

Terrific evening listening to hits made famous by the legendary Stevie Nicks being performed by Lisa West and her band. Cabarita Beach Sports Club might be a small club but Lisa and the guys had the audience up and out of their seats dancing and singing along so some of the greatest tunes of our time. Look forward to catching this show again soon.

Fun night of music, fun and laughter at the "Tom Jones & The Divas Show".

What a thoroughly entertaining show, Kerry James and Joey Ace brought to the stage of the Twin Towns Showroom some of the great music of yesteryear including songs from Dean Martin, Dusty Springfield, Johnny Cash, Bette Midler, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton, Elvis Presley, Tina Turner, Sonny & Cher, Tom Jones, Liza Minelli to name a few.
Fourteen costume changes certainly impressed the 800+ strong audience and helped bring alive the music of some of the most loved musicians of all time.

Sold out show, not bad for your first visit to arguably the best club venue in South East Queensland.
The audience totally got into the music singing along to the early hits of the 60's and 70's and then rocking along to the sounds of the disco years on the dance floor and where ever they could find some space to move in the packed auditorium.
Outstanding Buddy Holly show Saturday night put on by Gold Coast Entertainment Network featured the talent of Christopher Knight and his The Australian Buddy Holly Show. Playing to a sold out house, the audience got into the groove early and took to the dance floor from the first song.

What a night listening to Tim Gaze and The Echoes playing the music of Eric "Slowhand" Clapton at Club Burleigh. This was simple music, stripped back music, no fancy costume changes - this was the way Blues and Rock are meant to be played, au naturale - raw and plain. And boy did those of us present get treated to some great guitar playing by one of the best in the business, ably backed by some great musicians. For someone who grew up with the music of The Yardbirds, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and the Dominoes it was so Wonderful Tonight! Slowhand - The Music Of Eric Clapton performed by Tim Gaze

Went down to see Paul Hayman present his '50 Years of Legends' show and boy, what a show this is - great songs from yesteryear performed by a great singer who is more than ably supported by Kylie Wall with some astounding dance moves. The audience of 600+ were well and truly entertained listening to Paul's great voice recreate the music of Bill Hayley, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Dean Martin, Johnny Cash and Sammy Davis Jnr to name but a few.

7,000 revellers turned up for the closing ceremony night of entertainment at the Pan Pacific Masters Games here on the Gold Coast. Getting the party going were Madison Kat, one of the Gold Coast's premier party bands and they had the house rocking and rolling into the early hours of the morning.

Saturday night saw my wife and I hop on down to Surfers Paradise RSL to catch "The Dynamics" featuring Izzy (Isobel Hall) and Wazza (Warren Thomas). Was great being able to catch them performing in a club that actually had lighting which really made a difference when it came to taking photos - I counted ten spots.
Thoroughly enjoyable night of music, great vocals, fine guitarmanship (is there such a word? well there is now!). Covering Aus Rock, Classic Rock, Country and Modern Rock, was really fun, bopping along to tunes we had grown up with.
A bonus on the night was when Jonathan Everett-Jones took to the stage and joined in on some tunes with his legendary harp playing - the same Jonathan Everett-Jones who in years gone by played with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Alexis Korner and Supertramp amongst others including Joe Cocker and his Grease Band back in the 60's.

Went down to South Tweed Sports club to see Wayne Vitale in his new "The David Bowie Show". Supported by the musicians from The Killer Queen band, Wayne was smoking hot with his performance, and he had the audience dancing along in front of the stage - would be fair to say the crowd took the hint when Wayne played the song "Let's Dance".
This was a terrific show and Wayne did a superb job as Bowie.

Great show with The Soul Men at the VIVA Surfers Paradise festival. These guys brought the Blues Brothers Tribute show to the Gold Coast and had the 500+ crowd singing and bopping along to the songs of that great movie and had the crowd begging for more - two hours of total entertainment. Well done Jake and Elwood.

What an incredible afternoon of live music at Nerang RSL with the incomparable Mental As Anything rocking the house of over 500+ punters. First saw this group back in 1976 in Sydney when I was completing my BA Dip Ed - and boy, did I get an education from these guys back then! And today, 43 years later, I was up there with the best of them moving to hypnotic sounds of Greedy Smith and his great band.
Opening for the Mentals was Gold Coast local Nick Waters who most certainly got the huge crowd into the mood for when Mental As Anything took to the stage.
"A popular urban myth concerns a group of art students who passed themselves off as a band in order to con the local publican into giving them a gig in exchange for free beer. The deception worked better than intended, and the group came to be known as Mental as Anything. Nearly two decades later, they are still irritating the public with their highly listenable, idiosyncratic brand of garage pop. A self-explanatory single to reflect their success, The Nips Are Getting Bigger, rose through the charts as did their fundamental understanding of the old adage that 'for every action there is a reaction'. Ahead lay a very lengthy pub crawl which only the accomplished could survive."
A big shout out to Nerang RSL for a truly memorable afternoon of live music on the Gold Coast.
