‘Night Fever’ Fills The Air At The Bandstand
13 June 2007
Continuing the packed concert season at Eastbourne’s Bandstand this summer, the Bee Gees tribute band make a welcome return on 22 June for an evening of ‘Jive Talking’.
Featuring some of the Bee Gees most legendary tunes including Stayin’ Alive, Tragedy and How Deep is Your Love, the unmistakable sounds of the famous brothers Gibb will fill the air from 8pm.
Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Economy, Tourism & Environment, Councillor Steve Wallis said “The tribute season goes from strength to strength! The Bee Gees hits range across decades meaning they appeal to a huge audience, whether its 60’s soul, 70’s disco, 80’s pop or recent covers from Steps ‘Tragedy’ to Take That’s version of ‘How Deep is Your Love’. This really is one for all the family!”
To accommodate all music tastes, the Bandstand’s varied programme will be featuring performances with an Afternoon on Broadway from Wealden Brass on 16 June and a traditional Sunday afternoon concert from the Heathfield Silver Band on 17 June. The Hustlers get the seafront rocking this Saturday evening for Rock n Roll night and the Crawley Millennium Concert Band close the weekend with Sunday Night on the Proms.
The Concert Band of the Royal British Legion of Little Common keep the musical flavours flowing into the week with a Wednesday night 1812 Fireworks Concert on 20 June followed a swinging Big Band night with the Swinging Little Big Band on 21 June.
The tribute nights which are organised by Eastbourne Borough Council run every Friday through till 7 September with doors opening from 7pm and concert start at 8pm with advance tickets £5.50 or £6.50 on the door – book early to avoid disappointment.
