Benefit gig for the Hawkhurst Cottage Hospital
U-Turn were asked to play at a benefit gig for the Hawkhurst Cottage Hospital organised by the Hawkhurst Bowls Club. A bluesy set was asked for so we formed up as the U-Turn Blues Band. There was a special guest appearance by Van Greg aka The Axeman from Athens for a few numbers.
Also playing were a Country and Western singer and folk duo Milton Hide. All in all it was a really fun night and the audience enjoyed themselves taking to the dance floor.
