What a fantastic evening at St Marys, Ecclesfield. The Proms for the second half went down a treat. The band was on top form which befits a sellout audience. Hoping for two concerts next year. Happy Christmas to all the band. |

Wonderful to see the band over on the Isle of Man this weekend for the Manx Music Festival.
Believe me, you're better staying a few more hours than going on the boat in a gale. Hopefully we'll see you all again next year. |

My family came from Emley. Four brothers - Fred, Albert,
Harry and Owen all played in the band until about the mid 50's. For
the ones with a long enough memory they will remember that Harry and
Albert both won the World Concertina Championship at the Albert Hall in
the late 40's. A long history of Emley music makers! |

Well done everyone at the Areas
this year. We did well. So proud to be a member of this band, there's
nowhere else in the country I'd rather play. There are scores of other
bands would give anything to have what we have. |

Did you have a drummer in
the band in the 1930's by the name of Gardner. If so this would have
been my Grandad.
His first name was Frank,
Thanks, David J Tyas. - We will have a look into this for you Dave! |
