The back story is... About five years ago me and my sisters started up a little singing group called The Girls (original I know), we were quite successful in our local area and we did rather a lot of gigs.
We followed the example of the great girl groups of the past like The Supremes and The Crystal and dressed the same and sang classics as well as the modern clap trap of those days.
This particular set of photos was taken during a Ladies Christmas Lunch at the Vermont Hotel where my aunt was the manager at the time.
I think this was my favourite gig of all time purely because we sang old Christmas songs like ' Have yourself a merry little christmas' and ' Santa Baby'... it was so much fun!
We also did a dew charity gigs with a live band called Moonlight in Vermont singing things like 'Soul Man', 'Hold on I'm Coming' and 'Knock on Wood'.
*sighs wistfully* Those were the days.
Us 'getting ready' for a gig. This was clearly just for apearance sake. as you can see we were already fully dressed.
With our aunt Teresa before the show. Funny story about her actually, she now looks nothing like this and works for David Guest :s
Pretending we hate each other when really we do haha only kidding (or am I?)
A quick costume change for the second half!
I look like I'm singing sweet nothings to the tech guy but I don't even know him.
And that was just one of The Girls many (unpaid) gigs. I'll try and find some more old photos of us singing and if they are flattering enough I'll post them for you all.
