Band Turns 10 At Charity Gig

 

22nd February 2008

 

Party band Thick as Thieves will be celebrating a decade in pop by playing an anniversary gig in aid of the city charity Dream-A-Way this month.

The band's belated 10th anniversary concert will be at the Exeter Golf and Country Club in Topsham Road on Friday, February 29.

All the proceeds will go to Dream-A-Way, a charity run by volunteers which provides holidays for seriously ill or disabled people of all ages from across the South West.

The colourful, five-piece band, dressed in costumes and wigs, play pop and rock songs from the 1960s to the present day.
Their set list covers hits by the likes of the Beatles, David Bowie, Queen, Madness, Robbie Williams and the Kaiser Chiefs.

The current line-up of Dave Beer on vocals, Gary McMullen, Dylan Harrison and TT Poprock "on guitar, bass and squawking", and
Terry Salter on drums will be joined on stage by past members.

Doors open at 8pm.
