Review of Hipster And The Hot Hot Horns

Thank you for your call last week. Please pass on an enormous thanks to the team at Alive Network and Hipster for their fabulous performance at The Blush Ball 2007. Hipster were on great form and I have never seen a dance floor fill so quickly - they really are fantastic. Thank you for all of your help in booking them and getting them all there on time etc. As always Alive Network is such an efficient set up and takes so much of the hassle out of booking a band. Please pass huge thanks on to them. The Blush Ball was a wonderful evening and much enjoyed by our guests. We are thrilled to announce that the final total is in excess of £207,000, which is significantly more than we hoped to raise. Emily Maitlis was a very glamorous host, Rory Bremner had everyone rolling in their seats and then went on to run a very successful auction. Guests were entertained by a fashion show from Ben de Lisi, an outstanding performance by Jack Savoretti and Kim Medcalf's stunning performance as Sally Bowles from Cabaret. All before Cabaret took the Museum by storm!! Breast Cancer Haven receives no government funding and we rely totally on events such as The Blush Ball and donations to continue funding our vital service and to be able to build new Havens nationwide, so your support really is hugely appreciated. Breast Cancer Haven supports the physical and emotional needs of anyone affected by breast cancer. At what is often a frightening and lonely time, the Haven is a place any patient can visit, free of charge, to receive support, counselling and complementary therapies all under one roof. Our doors are open to anyone affected by breast cancer, whether it be the patient themselves or their friends and loved ones who often need support and information to enable them to cope with the far-reaching effects of this illness. With your support we are one step closer to our aim of opening the third Haven in Leeds by 2008, and ultimately to being able to provide our unique combination of support and therapy to every person in the UK affected by this terrible illness. There are no dates in the diary for 2008's Blush Ball as yet but I will be in touch when I have news. With many thanks again and very best regards to Tony Woolliscroft and Hipster,
