COLLECTION
With Free Admission and Beer, Lager and Cider from only £2.19 a pint, the money’s got to come from somewhere to help pay the musicians and their travel costs! So towards the end of the entertainment, The Bucketeers will come round with a collection for you to show your appreciation for the band.
SINGING WITH THE BAND / BEING A GUEST OF THE BAND
All Steve’s Guests are personally known to him, and have either appeared in bands or rehearsed with him. They appear only at his personal invitation – so please note these are not Open Mic sessions, and please do not ask members of the band if you can come up and sing.
