Creedence Clearwater Revival: The Story of John Fogerty ….

… is a performance I enjoyed yesterday evening in the Alma Cafe in Cape Town.

For the first time, the Alma hosted one of Cape Town’s great tribute shows, CCR: The Story of John Fogerty. Featuring the original cast members, Barry Thomson, Richard Tait and Robbie Stemmet (Boulevard Blues) this iconic and highly entertaining show.

An audience of 60 people packed along tables (there is always food in Cape Town) in a space of about 50 sqm which it had to share with the band. Great fun. Nice people all in their fifties and reliving the late sixties and seventies.

It was dark. I did not use a flash (virtually never do) but ISO 3200 and noise in pictures reduced with MacPhun Noiseless Pro. The rest of the processing I did with a variety of software.

Reliving the ‘old times’

Only the staff was young

I put a spell on you …
