Dear Friends of The SAS Band,What a month it's been! Major events for all members of the band.... First of all there was the Mandela concert in Hyde Park - two weeks of intense rehearsal and four hours of high energy performance. It was a great honour for the band to appear at Nelson's 90th birthday celebration. We loved playing with the Soweto Gospel Choir and Amy Winehouse! It was however, very exhausting and we barely had time to dust ourselves off, when it was time to head off to sunny Sweden to the Pite Havsbad Festival (pausing swiftly at The Brook for a quick warm-up). Great fun was had by all, but now it's time for myself and Jamie to set our sights on the upcoming tour with Brian, Roger and Paul. We kick off early September in Russia and finish in Rio in December. It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it. Hope to see you somewhere along the way.
