AW, Will the Pratten Park Celebration be a pre-purchased ticket event ? What discount will members receive for the B&W Ball ? Looks like a event not to be missed. |

I know it reads a bit funny, but there is no need for pre-paying for the Pratten Day. We're hardly going to turn people away at the gate. The final member's price hasn't yet been finalised (still working through the budget for the night), but it isn't going to be like $5 or anything. The numbers that have been bandied about give our members a significant headstart. When the final member's price is announced I'll post it here. This is the big one for all Magpie faithful. We're looking at about 650 guests, top shelf entertainment, and more Magpie greats than you can poke a stick at. You'll remember this one for the rest of your days. |

The prices have been announced so I'm sure if you have your money and want to book your table that Tracey will take the booking. We obviously weren't pushing the B&W Ball until after the Season Launch, but now that's out of the way it's all systems go to May 30. We want to sell 800 tickets so no one needs to miss out. Also for all those old enough to remember the 70's, Leo Sayer has been announced as the musical entertainment for the night. He'll be doing a 30min set featuring all of his hits. |

Mate saw the MG's (Original members of the Blues Brothers Band) the other night performing with Guy Sebastian at the Bridge Hotel in Rozelle. The encore song was "Shake Your Tail feather" How good would it have been to have that song being played at the B&W Ball. All the Magpie faithful shaking their Black & White Tail Feather's! :lol: |
