The Ramrods 60s Rock n’ Roll Showboat Night
The Ramrods 60s Rock n’ Roll Showboat Night
31st October 2010
Saturday 13th November on the Oliver Cromwell Paddle Wheeler
This Showboat Night is set to be the best ever! After the usual delicious 3-course set dinner, the Paddle Wheeler will be serving up The Ramrods on stage for a 60s Rock n’ Roll night to remember!
The Ramrods span four decades and then a bit - with time off for good behaviour! They appear to have existed forever, or so it seems. The line-up is now Alistair Jones (vocals), Tony Holbrook (rhythm guitar), Graham 'Noddy' Stodart (bass guitar), Peter 'Buck' Jones (drums) and the youngest, Paul Newman (lead guitar)….and four of them are originals from the 'sixties'. The Ramrods in their original conception played their first gig in 1956. Contemporary instruments include a Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster guitars, a Gibson SG and 12 string Yamaha Pacifica, a highly polished Fender Jazz Bass guitar and percussion from mature Premier Royale drums.The Ramrods will be playing numbers from Roy Orbison, The Beatles, Jackie de Shannon, Chuck Berry, Wilson Pickett, Cliff Richard & The Shadows and many others, so come along to enjoy an evening of great food and 60s nostalgia. Dress up in the gear of the time if you like – there will be a prize for the best-dressed couple!
The doors open at 6.30pm for pre-dinner drinks with the best view in the docks. Dinner is served at 7.30pm and the band will be on stage from 8.45pm to 11pm. The well-stocked bar on board will be open right through ‘till 11.30pm.
Guests for this 60s Rock n’ Roll night can be sure of a great evening of food, drink and entertainment. The meal and live show is priced at £21.50pp.
