For those of us who know Steve Etherington this is a fascinating development.
(we are talking about "my man", aren't we?)

Is he going to sing, play the guitar or recall his life on Mars?

The post code for the Riverside Holiday Park is - PO22 9NE
So set your sat navs and we hope to see you there.

And yes Ray, Steve Etherington is the musical director for Butlins and Haven Holidays, he also plays in the house band at Butlins, he is a multi talented musician and singer and he was the M.D. when The Rapiers and Jimmy Jemain done the Ciff show in London a few years ago.
So all in all we are looking at a fantastic night of entertainment.

Tickets can also be purchased by credit/debit card by phoning The Guitar & Amp Shop in Bognor on 01243 868666

In that case it is a fascinating coincidence. There is another Steve Etherington who is also connected with showbiz - he is the manager for John Leyton and other 'sixties' artists (you will remember that John Leyton was backed by The Rapiers for a time). My tongue in cheek comment was made because of the unlikely possibility that he would ever appear on stage and because at one time he worked for a confectionary company!

Well that is a coincidence Ray. It's not a common name, and for both to be in show business and have connections with The Rapiers is a bit uncanny but I assure you they aren't the same person. Although my mate Steve is also a brillient guitarist he is better known for his keyboard playing and vocal work.

We have just been told that we can now sell a limited number of tickets on the door on the night. This will have to be on a cash only basis though, so hope to see a few more of you there.

I just wanted to say thank you to all concerned for a wonderful evening, and very much hope that a large amount of money was raised for cancer research.
