Silver Strings Singapore On Cruise Ship Aegean Paradise

Photographs are still streaming in as they arrive on my iPhone.

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:

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.

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.
