The Ever Important - Material! Material! Material!

By material I mean the specially selected songs and content that will maintain the pace of your show and please your audience. These days it doesn’t really matter if you use pre-recorded orchestrations (as in Karaoke) to format the program, have the finest of musicians behind you or just a soloist giving you the accompaniment. What matters is what you use to entertain the people in front of you. The Material!

When: Sunday December 2nd
Where: The Fraternity Club, Fairy Meadow.
Time: 2pm to 9pm
