happy new year!

Welcome 2010! Even though we are indeed excited about the upcoming year, the old one went out with a bang. Well, ok, maybe it wasn't a bang, but it was a great party. The main event of the evening was a Battle of the Bands, Beatles style. Having received Beatles Rockband for Christmas we thought this was the perfect opportunity to showcase the musical stylings of those mop-topped brits that we all love so much.

The first band up was Pete's Best; featuring Ben, Cameron and Joe.


Next, we heard from Coolness who, unfortunately, was unable to provide a publicity photo for the event. Band members: Robyn, Trapper, Megan and Alison.

Then, the dazzling talents of Soul Sistaz; Susan, Cami and Keira.


Lastly, a crowd favorite, Rocky Loves Nancy. Members of the band include Curtis, Paul, Megan and Alison.


The competition was fierce.





But in the end, we had a victor. And the winner is......






Yes, yes, we brought the trophy home from the first annual Beatles Rockband Battle of the Bands! A special thanks to all contestants.

The evening also consisted of delicious food, great company and a fair amount of the consumption of mocktails.




















Thanks to everyone and Happy New Year!

Rocky Loves Nancy Forever! What a great new year's party and thanks to the Armstrongs for hosting such a fantastic event at the compound. Will we have a reprise competition next year?

Rocky Loves Nancy!!! I remembered so much more about this New Year's party than I did after the last one! Thanks to Curt and Meg for letting us rock out to great food, mocktails, and tunes. As a band we really found our sound. And I say next year we ban the practice of throwing your underwear at the drummer. You know who you are Curt.
