Coffee Day 18th April 2011

A Coffee Day and a half! 25 members turned-up for a fantastic day of music with so much variety of styles of play and instruments to choose from. There was plenty of jam sessions up to 6 keyboards to choose from and even an electric guitar on hand! Members had the opportunity to see the brand new Korg Pa3X arranger keyboard for the first time in NZ courtesy of the Roger Smith and the Music Planet music stores.

Thank you Peter for being such a wonderful host and thanks to everybody for all the wonderful eats available for the luncheon banquet and sharing the music - we are blest in the Club with such a surfeit of superb musicians.
