TOPAZ ROCK BAND
Just a little news about what we are up to
these days. Promise we won’t list what we
ate for breakfast...
Saturday July 4
Returning to the Abbotsford Berry Festival hosted in beautiful downtown
Abbotsford. In case you don’t know, it’s raspberry season. It’s a little early this
year, due to the heat wave that is currently hitting the west coast. Super hot on
stage, but another great time for everyone!
Tuesday June 23
Return matinee Snowbird performance at the Hard Rock in Coquitlam BC. Its
another full house complete with pasta buffet. Awesome audience, and a great
meal. We seem to be talking about the food a lot lately...
Friday June 20
Back at Duke’s Pub in Greendale for another weekend of fun and frivolity. Food’s
great, and these starving musicians always enjoy the fundraiser buffets! We
learned “Live and Let Die” for the benefit of the cooking staff who are always
busy prepping the meals .
Thursday May 28
Finals for the Own The Mic Contest at the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam BC.
Congratulations to all the finalists who performed with Topaz. Fantastic energy!
Everybody had a stellar evening! Taking home top prize was Bradley Barkman.
Sunday May 10
Snowbird performance at the Dekker Centre in North Battleford Saskatchewan. Its
a long journey across the prairies, but the audience was warm and receptive. The
evening finished with a standing ovation!
Friday April 17
Cars Stars and Guitars! On the KLB stage at the Classic & Custom Car Show with
Karen Lee Batten. Great event at the Abbotsford Tradex Center. A great variety of
bands and singers playing through three days of the event. A chance to see lots of
cars too...
Saturday April 11
A wild night at Dukes Pub in Greendale. Who knew people still danced on
tables?
Four encores and a great time was had by everyone!
Sunday March 29th
Fort Langley performance of “Snowbird” the tribute to Anne Murray. A warm
welcome from the audience and a wonderful intimate performance! What a
great place Fort Langley is! No wonder everyone would like to live here!
Monday February 23rd
Hard rock Casino in Coquitlam for a SOLD OUT performance of “Snowbird” the
tribute to Anne Murray. A good time was had by all, especially the magic
moment when Ron Irving (composer of the Anne Murray hit “Bluebird”) joined
the band onstage for the encore song “Bluebird”!
Saturday March 19
Topaz hits the Mainstage at the Zoomer Show at Canada Place. Great chance to
showcase some of those Anne Murray tunes that we know and love so well. Vikki
shines on vocals!
