Anzac Day 2012: When the second gig of the day starts at 7:30 a.m. PDF Print E-mail
Inez and Barry Buderim Concert Band trombone player, Myron, commented wryly: 'It's a hard life when your second gig of the day starts at 7:30 a.m.'

Anzac Day for the Band kicked off soon after 4:00 a.m. with a moving Dawn Service at the Maroochydore Cenotaph in Cottontree Park. Afterwards Band members enjoyed a sustaining breakfast at the Maroochy RSL Club (thank you Maroochy RSL), before driving to Buderim. There the Band played Australian music, followed by march music for the marchers stepping off from the Woolworths carpark. Members of the Band then scattered. Some packed the BCB trailer to return our equipment to our rehearsal room; but others hurried to other venues to participate in their third gig of the day playing with other Coast bands. A contingent of six joined the Maroochydore High School Band at the 9:00 a.m. service at Cottontree Park.

The BCB Anzac playouts were the last public performances with Inez Durrer as BCB Musical Director. Inez has forged strong bonds with organisors of both Maroochydore and Buderim Anzac ceremonies over the last four years. In the slideshow of the day's events (click here to view slideshow of BCB Anzac Day 2012), several shots capture the warmth of these relationships.
