There was a storm on board a ship when the
Silver Strings performed Saturday night, 30th March 2019.
Every member of the audience in the concert theatre was soaked
with 60s music melodies.
Pictures below are a mixed bag. Not in any order:

Edward Tan
(lead guitarist, one of Singapore's top 60s band, THE JETS)
with Andy and Audie. Edward's a fan too.
No kidding with John Cher. He goes with any beat.
You go off rhythm, he corrects you.

The show in between as members of the audience had temporary relief.
Many seniors, don't forget.

Huge posters of our show everywhere on the ship.

Drummer John Cher and Wife Betsy.
They both ate so much, they had to pay for their meals.
The amplifiers provided are fabulous with
great sound production and stability.
I sing with the Silver Strings for fun and I am not a gambling person. Thank you.

Hi Andy,
It all looks great, but maybe for those of us who weren't there you can give a bit of background. What was the cruise all about, who was there, where did it go and so on.
Best

Andy Young It was a wonderful show, and so enjoyable, especially such rare event on the ship, and I am most grateful and thanks tremendously to get to meet you there too, it's a turning point for Teepees Andy 🥰

Thanks for allowing me space for the post Freda. The TEEPEES have always been a pop success story and I am glad it's now permanently etched in the memory of many more SG pop music fans.
