#regs2018 N3 @backworthband again nice to see a band short on players make it to the stage and not give up! Lots of credit to the young man on the top seat who has done a sterling job! Unfortunately this was a piece the band struggled with today. Lots of obvious commitment though

1. @KboroSilverBand
