Year 2 No 1 - October 1978
The grand gala op this new Club was held in the Park Hotel, Falkirk, on Monday, on Monday, 11th September, 1978. In spite of the night clashing with the local holiday weekend, a large and enthusiastic audience turned up to hear some of the finest playing heard in this area for some time.
Our guests for the evening were the one and only Jim Clelland who provided some real ‘magic,’ both on Scottish and Continental level, and a band fast becoming one of the top teams in Scotland, the Lothian SDB. Just to give our first audience a ‘wee extra’ we also had a team of Scottish Country Dancers from Stirling who rightly so earned a tremendous applause for both spots.
Generous applause was also afforded to some local players and another fine fellow who also turned up for a wee night out – Callum Wilson.
Our guest artistes for next month at the same venue (Monday, 23rd October) will be TV and broadcasting star Jim Johnstone and his Band.
