6Youngest fan.jpg - 148.85 K     Well after Paris what can you do??? Some of the BGN staff headed over to the Roslindale Farmers Market to check out The Beachcombovers play there. it was fun!! And guess hwat? we got some dmamned good Farmers markets here too! Capt'n Tommy White was in great form playing some excellent lead surf guitar. Beachcombovers are mostly intrumental but they did dso a cover of The Axes Big Noise...surf style. They also did the Batman theme with some cute youg girls singing background vocals for the chorus and the Hawaii 5-O theme...some great fun was had by all...even the little bebes (as they say in France) as you can see by the little guy with his cart, he was in AWE I tell you!! The Beachcombovers were fun and people were dancing and smiling and you gotta check 'em out at their next gig, we'll keep you informed and make sure yopu know when they are playing in town...but you CAN head over to the Roslindale Farmers Market in Roslindale Village to check 'em out there too.
