And that my friends is exactly what they did! Del's Groove once again were invited back to perform at the Avalon's Yacht Club's Commodore Ball. What I love most about this gig is seeing the same folks year after year. If it's not at the Ball, then New Year's Eve. It' so great to see everyone all dressed up outside of playing a wedding. My favorite part is when the high heels get kicked off for some serious dancing.
Commodore Paul Smith & his lovely wife Kerry were awesome hosts of the evening. After the awards & recognitions were given out, Del's Groove got the party started. We surprised Paul by taking his suggestion to start the evening out with an old tune by Three Dog Night - Celebrate, and with a little word play, we opened the dance floor with Raymond on lead vocals and the dancing started and never ended till the gig was over. This year some of Paul & Kerry's nephew's and their beautiful daughter joined in for the fun. I have to say though, to walk in the main entrance to find the poster with the faces of the yacht clubs members superimposed, well was yet another highlight! In the Twitter world, I managed to get a few shots of Paul tweeted as well.
Once again, thank you to all the members & staff of the Avalon Yacht Club for their warm hospitality, can't wait to see you all New Year's Eve!!
