Bistro L!VE Nottingham get Christmas Started Early

The staff at Bistro L!VE Nottingham gave shoppers in the city centre an early Christmas present last week giving away festive mince pies and pigs in blankets to promote their Christmas Party Nights and Christmas Tribute Nights this year. Dressed in variety of costumes from our ABBA Tribute Night, Take That Tribute Night and Bee Gees Tribute Night to reflect their favourite Bistro L!VE Tribute Band the Bistro L!VE staff tantalized the taste buds of the Nottingham general public with Christmas nibbles specially made by Bistro L!VEs head chef, John Boothroyd. He thought that there was no better way to market Bistro L!VEs Christmas Entertainment but also it was a great for him to get some early practice in for his Bistro L!VEs Christmas Menu for what will be the busiest Christmas period yet. The Nottingham shoppers certainly appreciated all his hard work with the Bistro L!VE staff coming back empty handed!!!!!!!!

Navi - Worlds Number 1 Michael Jackson Tribute, Rocks Bistro L!VE Leicester & Nottingham!

Last night saw Navi, the worlds number 1 Michael Jackson Tribute Act, performing to a standing ovation at Bistro L!VE Nottingham & Bistro L!VE Leicester.

Bistro L!VE were hosting a special tribute night, celebrating the music of Michael Jackson. Both Bistro L!VE venues were treated to an absolutely stunning performance from Navi and his superb backing dancers.

The atmosphere was electric as the audience waited for Navi to hit the stage. Once he did, they weren't dissapointed! There was an immediate rush to the front of the stage as Navi opened up with 'Smooth Criminal'.

Not only that but the Bistro L!VE audience experienced the first ever 'dance off' held at the venues with Navi and his dancers conducting a fantastic (and sometimes hilarious!) dance competition!

Once the show had finished, Navi very kindly posed for nearly 30 minutes with the hugely satisfied customers (see below).

Bistro L!VE, Leicester, Nottingham & Milton Keynes have some further fantastic tribute night's coming up in 2009, with top tributes to Abba, Queen, Amy Winehouse and Take That featuring the outstanding Take That 2.

BISTRO LIVE MILTON KEYNES TRAVEL IN TIME

On Friday 17th July Bistro Live were whisked back to the 70’s with a fantastic Tribute Night, ABBA, with most of the 200 customers dressed in their 70’s gear it really set the atmosphere!

After a superb 3 course meal everyone could not wait for “Abba Revival” to begin. The lights were turned down in the room and turned up on stage, with the loud intro music on walked “Bjorn and Benny” in their white trousers and jackets. The stage filled with smoke and you could hear the voices of “Agnetha and Frida” singing “Waterloo” as there opening song. As the smoke cleared, there they were in their short white dresses and platform boots to kill for and the hour of fantastic songs from Abba began.

Everyone sang along with the songs and danced for the whole performance, however I have to say my highlight of the evening was seeing “Alex” – yes you know who you are! -strutting his stuff on the table dressed in his stylish Gold jacket and wearing his platforms - his performance was great!!

Then on Saturday Bistro Live went to the 90’s with the fantastic energetic band “Now 90’s”. This band really know how to get everyone up and dancing and with “Collette”, lead singer bouncing around full of energy it cannot help but rub off on everyone else.

This band are truly one of a kind and will keep you dancing all night and are back at Bistro Live Milton Keynes on Saturday 15th August.

Congratulation to our quiz winners this weekend – Tracey Jones and Danielle Power – we all hope to see you again soon

BISTRO LIVE HELP ASHLEY HYDE

Bistro Live, Milton Keynes were very honoured to recently host a “Fundraising Evening” for Claire and Jamie for their young son, Ashley who has an extremely rare type of cancer called Neuroblastoma. I am pleased to say that at present Ashley is in remission but unfortunately this type of cancer is highly likely to return within 3-5 years, however there is some good news for Ashley as there is a treatment he can receive in America but Clair and Jamie need to raise £25,000 to get Ashley there.

Clair called Bistro Live after reading about our Fundraising Initiative as she thought this would be a great way to raise some money for Ashley by giving all her friends and family a good fun night out whilst still raising money for Ashley.

60 of their friends and family joined them at Bistro Live on Sunday 28th June for a fun filled evening, the theme; chosen by Ashley was “Hero’s and Villains”. After a wonderful 3 course meal we played fun games, had a quiz based on Hero’s and Villains and a massive raffle, where lots of the prizes were donated by local retailers, we then finished the evening with a Disco.

Bistro Live staff worked hard during the evening selling the raffle tickets and getting everyone to join in the quiz and games by asking for donations and along with a proportion of the ticket price from Bistro Live we managed to raise £412.00 to go to Ashley.

Due to the great success on the evening Clair approached me after and said “what a great night and wanted to arrange another one later in the year – where she would make sure everyone knew what a Brill Night it was” . I am confident that Bistro Live will be giving her an even larger donation after this event.

Since the evening the staff at Bistro Live has requested that we put a sign up about Ashley with a donation container for anyone to put money in as they really want to see him get the treatment he deserves. If you would like to make any direct donation to Ashley please log onto his website www.ashleyhydeappeal.org.uk or contact me at Bistro Live on 0845 3311500
