Great fun at Valentine’s sing along

This happy event also commemorated the sad death of Pistols's first donkey, Huckleberry,

A Valentine’s evening at Pistols Saloon in Ramsgate was a huge success and a definite indication that locals simply love music and singing.

The venue was beautifully decorated and there was even a traditional ‘kissing booth’ which led to lots of fun!

Some established local DJs and singers also came to show support for this event organised by the Amateur Karaoke Association (AKA).

Annamarie Esterhuizen and Gerrie Odendaal use the kissing booth.

Founder of AKA, Gerrie Odendaal said this happy event also commemorated the sad death of Pistols’s first donkey, Huckleberry that died on the same date some 13 years ago.

“Huckeberry undoubtedly helped to put Pistols Saloon on the map as a fun place for thousand of visitors, even from abroad!”

Odendaal thanked the owners of Pistols Saloon for staging such a successful event on Valentine’s Day for the community.

AKA has 85 members now and invites all singers to join.
