Stax of Sax 2 - What a Fantastic Night!
Stax of Sax II at The Limerick - Sth Melbourne
What a great night of saxophones and saxophone players were on show on 4th July!

....plus the heroic rhythm section of Mark Fitzgibbon, Andrew Swann & Howard Cairns.
270 people came through the doors (and many stayed until the last notes were blown) - brilliant for an icy cold Monday night in July!
What a treat of a gig! Mainly mainstream tunes with a New Orleans kind of feel to the night. The audience (and guest artists) were treated to a really wide variety of performances .... solo, duets, trios and the numbers kept growing ... get the picture? With a final blowout of all the artists, the night ended on a huge high!
