Bridie & the Blues

Saturday Live Dorchester is going from strength to strength as the holidays go by. This week (31 July 2010) there is a musical double bill featuring the B.B.Hall Band playing classic blues, original R&B and Rock ‘n’ Roll from 10am til midday followed by local guitar heroes and singer songwriters, Kipper and Roye with special guest the inimitable Andy Grant.

If you were here last summer you may remember bumping into the stilt walking, giantess and Irish tea lady, Bridie. Her appearance was so popular we have asked her back so look out for more tea trolley roller skating antics in South Street complete with Tom Jones jukebox.

Every week we feature the best in local live musical acts across all styles of music. Bands will perform from lunchtime into the afternoon and there will be an opportunity for people in the community to book the stage to perform in the morning before the main act set up. Add to this some of the finest street theatre performances plus entertainment for the kids and there can be no better place to spend Saturday.

Now in its fourth season, the summer events are growing in stature and popularity thanks to continued funding from the Town Council, DBID, the Chamber of Commerce and West Dorset District Council.

All events are absolutely free so please come and enjoy and spend your Saturdays in Dorchester all summer long.
