When will the weather change?!

I'm sure it's not just me that's getting down with it raining day after day, the only decent day we had was Sat 11th Aug so I spent most of that in the Queens Park in Chesterfield at the FreeFest07 gig, personally I'd have put some named bands from Chesterfield on instead of the unknown people they had (Maybe a word with the Organisers of Oakstock for ideas...?) but it was a great day and opefully it will be back next year (along with the Fireworks on Bank Holiday Monday, come on council)

But anyway, Rio 5 were out doing what they do best last night, providing great entertainment for those souls who were brave enough to face the weather, and we thank you for making the journey to The County, Saltergate, Chesterfield.

We were a bit worried as we'd not been advertised and we've heard some stories that The County wasn't that busy now and again, but we shouldn't have been, the Rio 5 grapevine had worked well and a fair sized crowd turned up and enjoyed themselves, there should have bee a couple of wedding parties checking us out but if they were there they didn't make themselves known.

Oh and the best news we got last night was another 5 bookings in the first half of 2008! Yes Rio 5 are now taking bookngs for 2008, Wow, Wow, Wow

Right, time for me to go now, we've got some new tunes to learn (and what tunes, proper cracking fun tunes, I'm really looking forward to adding them into the set) in time for the next brace of gigs at The Grouse Inn (13th Sept) and The Royal Oak (15th Sept)

We'll see you there!
