Siren & Strings … plus ….
So
…
after
an
enforced
summer
break
while
Abigail
inconveniently
had
a
heart
attack
followed
by
a
full
on
triple
heart
bypass
…
this
is
the
first
gig
“post
op”
for
the
Siren.
She
has
been
given
permission
by
her
cardiac
rehab
team
and
doctor
to
have
a
go
at
really
opening
up
that
chest
cavity
again!
However
after
very
annoyingly
getting
a
chest
infection
in
early
Nov
–
the
voice
took
a
bit
of
a
beating
from
all
the
coughing
like
a
rabid
dog
with
whooping
cough
…
so
what
better
time
to
invite
a
“guest”
to
help
spread
the load of a full gig …
enter ….
“The
Choir
of
Loretta”
(
http://www.100causes.com/
)
.…
with
guitar
in
hand,
vocals
with
that
added
“je
ne
sais
quoi”,
a
red
feather
boa
and
signature
red
top
hat
-
an
evening
of
truly
fabulous
entertainment
is
in
store.
Neill
may
or
may
not
have
to
wrestle
with
white
feathers
this
time,
the
Space
Vixen
outfit
probably
doesn’t
fit
the
Siren
anymore,
Cruella
may
have
gone
into
retirement
(photographic
evidence
of
all
of
the
above
references
can
be
found
in
one
photo
at
the
bottom
of
the
photo’s
page
on
the Siren & Strings website
) … but just as much verve will be put into the night’s musical delectations!
