BEATLES BAND 'GET BACK' TO OXTED

Top Beatles tribute, Sgt Pepper's Only Dart Board Band will 'Get Back' to Oxted in December after an absence of two years. They will perform again at The Barn Theatre having sold-out there on their previous visit in December 2001.

This year the in-demand Peppers have had a busy summer appearing in many outdoor festival events, the main highlight being the Orange Ashton Court Festival at Bristol supporting Robert Plant, former front man of Led Zeppelin, in front of a 30,000 strong audience. The band also headlined at the Homberg Town Festival in Germany. In May Liverpool's famous Cavern Club was 'taken over' by The Peppers for a weekend. They had appeared previously at Liverpool's Philharmonic Hall but this was their first stint at the Cavern and they went down a storm there. They weren't to know it at the time but a certain Paul McCartney was to appear on the same Cavern stage at a 'secret' gig just five days after the Peppers gigs and just before his King's Dock gig in June.

Promoter Tom Sangster says that the Pepper Band has been together for seven years now without change to their line-up and they just get better and better. "It's like watching a fine wine mature" he says. "As a Beatles tribute band they can't be beaten for sheer entertainment, stage presence and know-how. This all comes from their vast experience as purveyors of tongue in cheek humour which interweaves nicely with the songs in their live sets. Believe me, they will get the place 'jumping'! The Barn is a small theatre but it has an intimacy and atmosphere which is hard to beat. When the Pepper Band played there before it was a fantastic night and they are looking forward to returning."

Tickets for their show at The Barn on Saturday 6th December can be obtained from The Churchill Gallery, High Street, Westerham (Telephone 01959 561811) until 14th November; thereafter from Ibbett Mosely, Station Road East, Oxted (Telephone 01883 712241). If you intend to go, the advice is "Get your tickets quickly".
