Overseas travel to Avenches

In the summer of 2010, the band spent a week in Avenches, Switzerland Taking part in the Aventicum Musical Parade. With the opportunity to play with the other great bands from around the world, it was a trip we all enjoyed greatly.

A couple of days of rehearsals, and the show was upon us. The great atmosphere that the large stone amphitheatre provided brought a huge "Je ne sais quoi" to the whole occasion.

The highlight had to be the extended drum kit solo by Musician Neil Brocklehurst which brought the house down each and every night!
