Ode to the Jivenaires
After 35
years who would have thought
That a band of that age could still make us rock!
We
clapped and we cheered, we laughed and we sang,
At the Jivenaires Reunion, that last night in May.
On
the guitar and vocals was the Sean Kenny.
The likes of him there aren't very many.
Wee
Pat on the drums
belting it out,
From Elvis the King, to the fantastic
"Wipeout".
From the "Do
Ron Ron" till the end of the night,
Evelyn is still
Boyle's "Miss Dynamite."
From the
U.S. of A. there was Pat on the
Bass
His cockney accent, wasn't it ACE.
The
Kinks, the Beatles and Manfred Mann,
Remembering these songs, Monty was the
MAN.
Ricky,
Christie,
Liam and
Michael too,
Back on the stage singing the ones they once knew.
Danny it was sad
that you could not be there,
But 11 hours of video to watch -- we hope you can
bear!
They played
all the oldies of all the greats ~~
No wonder they came from Scotland and the States!
The
memories and the reminiscences will live long in the mind,
The singing and dancing were one of a kind.
Andrew,
Honor and Vanessa would just like to say,
Thank you all for a fantastic
Day!!!! *
*(All that was missing from the night of
dreams,
Were the three backing singers --- The White
Supremes!)
