The set will feature all original tunes, with plenty of opportunities for improvisation in a rock trio setting. Originally billed as Rob Reeves and the Misfits, we will have to come up with another name, as there is already a band called the Misfits! The ball will be held on Saturday Night, 23rd July, at the Mount Nebo Hall in View St, Mount Nebo. It is a fund raiser for the local residents’ association, so come along and have a great night!
