Wow! I know I keep saying that. But what else can I say? It just keeps getting better. Two words - exciting new talent, and great teamwork - oops that’s 6 words - what the heck.

First of all, thanks to all the regular contributors, for really helping to pull off a great night. The teamwork, was really great, probably because we were all in trouble with Josh for forgetting to tell him we weren't coming to pick him up. But none the less, I think we reached a new level of cohesion and cooperation.

Then, apart from all the regular talents of Simon, Rex, & Daxton, and those of the wonderful Mischa, we were also treated to the fabulous Stamperdown Choir and the exciting new talent of M.J.Numen.

Wasn't M.J. great! That's the most exciting for me. That's my dream, to be a place where talented young performers can come to a great venue with great sound and a great audience and a supportive production team, to make their one and only ever debut (in Newtown)! Imagine if there were a few such people turning up for the first time, every Sunday night. Just imagine the buzz, of how we could help all these anxious artists break through to their destiny. Remember what it was like the first time you performed on stage. It's hard to imagine a more exciting moment in life!

And then imagine how there could be a buzz out there in the community about this place where artists and their mates can go and feel really welcome and supported. We can all only be enriched by the association with such a pool of potential talent.

Still, the key to all this is to have a slick operation which effectively delivers a great service to these performers (and the key to that? plans, and the key to that? meetings and planning).

'Cause there are plenty of places out there where they are going to get a lot more attitude and less support or services than we can give. We have all the ingredients (except for a slick promotional campaign and heaps of capital), we've got the venue, the equipment, and the full support team including MC, DJ, engineer etc, and the friendly faces (that you need when you are a newie).

• Dr Quantum
• The Stamperdown Choir
