The fantastic bunch of ladies that make up the fund raising Boobs & Brass Band are getting ready for their full frontal ssault on Whit Friday in a few weeks time.

They are also preparing for a concert in Alyth Parish Church too to help raise funds for their fantastic cancer research causes.

Sold out

The girls will all be travelling up by train for the weekend and it is rumoured that the small town of Alyth is buzzing with curiosity to find out what “Boobs & Brass” is all about – the 600 tickets are already just about sold out!

The proceeds from this concert will be donated to Breast Cancer Campaign with sum of £2500 already being pledged.

After that it's all go for the ground breaking concert with the men of Brighouse & Rastrick in a concert that should possibly be advertised as “Boobs & Balls”!4BR
