After the huge success of the last 'Jurby Alive' event , which raised enough money to pay for the Jurby Kids Xmas party 
, the 2nd one is to be held on January 2nd – just enough time to recover and get some sleep after New Year's Eve at The Bay Port Erin (Ballagroove DJs, more details soon).
Bands for the night are: Smealiean Race, Caution Runners, Jurby Mountain Daredevils and Brian Brough. And we're pretty sure Grant Trash will be spinning some tunes between bands.
It's 'BRING YOUR OWN BEER' and only TWO QUID to get in, so you'll need a good excuse not to go!

The annual 'Evening of Improvised Music' will be held at the Erin Arts Centre on Thursday 19th November 2009 at 7.45 pm
The main performers are: Jon Sanders (Saxophone, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar); George Hughes (Guitar, Bass Guitar); Anglin Buttimore (Piano, Keyboards); Danny Kneale (Drums, Percussion).
For the un-initiated, these evenings involve some of the Islands top musicians playing improvised music, they don't rehearse in advance and have little plan of where the evenings music will go, so its anybodies guess, generally it rolls between Jazz, Rock, Tripped out psych, Blues, Free jazz and anything else that happens to appear on the night.
For more details of what improvised music is all about, have a look at Jon Sanders Website
The night also raises a lot of money for charity, so its well worth it
Also worth supporting to show that there is interest in live music down south and that the Erin Arts Centre should be used for such
