			Charity Band Night in memory of Danny Curran 
			
			  
			WHAT a 
			fantastic night in memory of Danny Curran!  A variety of local 
			talent was on shown at The Albert, in Southport on Saturday, 19 
			January 2008 despite the bad weather.  Interestingly the event 
			was delayed due to bad weather, but it did not dampen the spirits as 
			the gig got underway. Taking to the stage first was Damaged Goods, 
			whose singer the event was dedicated to.  Sadly for Damaged 
			Goods, it was also to be the last time the band was to perform and 
			they did a fantastic exit, one that Danny would have been proud of. 
			Then it was Same Old Mondays who took to the stage, swiftly followed 
			by Sons of Mod, the bands had a huge contrast of styles, but both as 
			talented.  Then after a quick bit of food, a charity auction 
			was held and Martin Hovden of the Champion soon got the bids coming 
			in. Ending the night was cjd, Southport's answer to mad cow disease. 
			Their wacky sense of dirty and often offensive humour made 
			interesting viewing of the audiences reactions.  The night 
			raised a staggering £450 pounds for the Southport Kidney Fund and 
			they would like to thank all who donated prizes and everyone who 
			took part.
