Outdoor music in Snape Maltings (25/07/2021)

 


This evening we went to see an African band in Snape maltings in Suffolk ( near where I live). It's free summer concert until the end of August. One band a day, Wednesday to Sunday, at 5:30pm start. We were there on Friday too, for opening jazz concert. This evening was a band called " Abel Selaocoe & Chesaba", their sound was really funky African. An Irish guy on the right plays bass and guitar, and he played a tune from Radiohead with African twist. I thought it was excellent too, I looked up to the sky, and birds flying over the stage, warm air and breeze on my skin, thought what a lovely evening it was...

This African music was awesome😍I wanted to dance, but no one was dancing, I hear due to Covid regulations, no dance was allowed, is that true? What about Latitude this weekend? I am sure everyone was dancing there! 🧐


Anyway, I thought this was such an good idea, thanks to Snape Maltings which made this happened. It was so civilised, warm summer evening we were outside listening to music. No  one was getting drunk, just listening to good music and watched performance. They were entertainers too, with good sense of humour getting involved with audience. I smiled all the way rhyming with my body, almost as if their music was communicating with us and our body, which the drummer was saying about music. 


We booked more concerts for next a few weeks, I am really looking forward to them. Snape released more free tickets, if you go on their website under Dome stage, all the bands who are playing are there. And why not this "Dome stage concert" make part of your day/night out? 

My life is good whatever happens, I am grateful being here and enjoy every moment. My 7th cycle of chemo starting this week, I am not looking forward to it, but life is worth fighting for. I am just doing my best everyday. 😊


Anyway, really enjoyed music this evening. Thank you Abel and his friends, for wonderful evening!
