A FANTASTIC evening of entertainment takes place on Friday, February 18, when not one but two local bands take to the stage in aid of Primrose Hospice's "Primrose at the Princess" appeal.

Dempsey's Lot will be performing lively Irish music to get people on their feet and dancing and Get the Gist will be playing something for everyone with hits from the 60s right up to the present day.

The event takes place at Bromsgrove Rugby Club, Finstall Road, Bromsgrove, and tickets cost £8, which includes a ploughman's supper.

For tickets, call the Primrose Hospice's fund-raising department on 875444.
