White Rock Violins Entertaining; Ms Tracy Lott & Celia Collin
Tracy Lott [right on the screen] playing the violin together with Celia Collin at the ‘Sugar and Spice Cafe’ on Johnston Rd. White Rock BC, Saturday 12 June 2010. Father’s Day is this weekend. The lovely musicians came and entered Sugar & Spice Cafe to have a bite to eat, or was it coffee, to prepare themselves for the concert or performance they would be participating in later in the day.
An event to be held in the White Rock Community Centre, at the White Rock Miramar Plaza. I got the idea of asking Tracy Lott and Celia Collin what they had in their cases they each carried. Tha answer was simply…violin…a fiddle.
What transpired from then on after I had asked them if they would play for the White Rock Reporter, you can view, see and hear, on this uncut Candid Video taken at the occasion…White Rock is truly rocking and this time ‘a classic; was nicely performed.

Closer to noon I discovered the rain or drizzle had ceased and visitors to the Farmers Market walked in comfort and enjoyed the , by now, much warmer winds than we experienced earlier in the day before noon. I am pleased to announce the sponsorship of this ‘Candid Video’ to be Surfside Flooring on Russell Avenue by Johnston Road, White Rock. I promise to find out for us the name of the trio entertaining with instruments and song on this video.
Delightful singing and soothing for the ears.
