Best Foot Forward to take last steps together at Bridge House gig

A night to celebrate the career of Best Foot Forward takes place on Friday, March 23 in the Bridge House Hotel in Tullamore. The gathering has been scheduled to give loyal fans, friends and family a chance to relive the band's glory days as well as to raise money for Offaly Hospice and the Alzheimer's Society of Ireland. Headling the night's celebrations will be The Dubliner's tribute featuring Paul Watchorn and The Clann, new traditional group Geasa and new ballad group Ruaile Buaile. MC for the night is Colin Hughes and the show will end with a massive show from Best Foot Forward featuring Ger, Michael, Ray and Pat.Best Foot Forward were formed after a plan to get together for a night in Banagher. What happened next was the beginning of a musical journey with family and friends that has lasted for years. After just six months together the band released debut CD Foot Notes, which was followed by second album Itchy Feet. After years on the go the band decided last year to wind down and finish on a high at March 23's last hurrah. Tickets for the final gig are on sale from the Bridge House, band members and their families for €12.
