Tyranna   10 #6 Posted April 1, 2007 Awfully sorry, but it looks like I'm rushed off my feet tonight. Busy with all kinds of sorting out of important things such as finding a job; so it looks like I won't be able to make it.  Have fun, though!

jofo80 Â Â 10 #8 Posted April 1, 2007 I have had a great night tonight, way above what I was expecting. the band that came on after the power cut called Bison were awesome. Had everyone dancing to a bit of Ska/Reggae with a Sheffield accent! Well done to the organisers of this event, it has been fantastic. Things like this are a great way to bring the community together, and I have to say despite the stick Sharrow gets from many of my associates, events like this and the summer Sharrow music festival show what a great community of people live in this area. Thank you for a great night!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
