I just wanted to say on behalf of all the BDSN organising team a big thank you for all the efforts that helped to make Thames Festival a big success.

We sounded great on the street and have had some very positive feedback, so happy days.
Some of the photos i’ve seen look great.

If you have any that you can send that would be great.
We also need video footage.

Also you can post a comments here.

I’m sure next year will bring even bigger and better things for all concerned and I hope all of you can stay involved.

Big thanks to the Thames Festival for inviting us to play.
They put on an amazing event.

Thanks to my Dad for singing “Aint no Sunshine” (one of the funniest things ever) If you missed that, you missed the best part of the weekend.

Of Course the biggest thanks goes out to all of you in the Bateria for all the hard work you put in.
Even though we all nearly went unconscious in the rehearsals, we managed to sound as good as a Bloco in Rio, and there are some recordings to prove it which will be available soon.

I’m sure I have forgotten someone and i’m sorry if I have.

However, roll on next year when i’m sire we will all get together again.
Hopefully see you all at the new sessions starting soon all over the place.

Vamos Junto
