This picture - taken by Melanie McLaren - gives a good impression of the concert we gave last Saturday at 'the Firkin Crane' (Cork, Ireland).

Eva Novoa is our new piano player in Alice in Dixieland. And we are so happy with her! The picture was taken on our rehearsal yesterday. Teddy and Eva were working on the verse of Who's Sorry now. After rehearsal we had a long talk about repertoire. I think we all have a whole lot of nice ideas. New arrangements will be made, old ones thrown away.. A fresh start.. YEAH! Welcome, Eva!
