A night of memories
Bee Gees tribute band, the Gee Bees, reminded around 150 baby boomers what it felt like to dance until their muscles ached at the Mangawhai Club in the weekend.
Sisters, Laraine Gray and Alison Cox with the tribute band members, John, Tony and Paul
“It was absolutely brilliant, everyone had a fantastic time. The whole show was so professional, they packed the dance floor all night,” says club manager, Wayne Williams.
The tribute band sang two sets, delighting Bee Gees fans with their white disco suits and sparkling grins.
Mangawhai resident, Alison Cox said a highlight for her was when the tribute band diverted from the Bee Gees to perform YMCA and asked the audience to remind them ofthe legendary moves causing one man to lead the way on a table top.
Before the show, fans enjoyed a buffet with mouth watering roasts, a wide variety of seafood, sides and dessert put on by the club caterers.
“Everyone was raving about it, and I know I’ve got sore feet from dancing,” says Alison.
