The GSB Play the VE Day 80th Anniversary Event, Gislingham, Suffolk - 11th May 2025
The Gislingham Silver Band is playing at the village's VE Day 80th Anniversary event at the village hall, on a very nice sunny day. Also performing is the Gislingham Variety Club, which sings along with the band on a version of Wish Me Luck. The day before that, the band is also playing, but this time it's for the funeral of former Musical Director, trombonist and flugel-horn player Ron Wright, who died at the age of 94 after an 82-year playing career, of which nearly forty was with the GSB.
