On February 19th, members of the Fulham Brass Band featured in an episode of Ant and Dec’s Push the Button and played to the biggest audience we will probably ever achieve (6.57 millon).
The band had been approached to play the programmes’ theme tune. As well as this, we were involved in a game that was entitled, “You do the Maths”. This entailed the contestants selecting members of the band such that their combined ages added up to a given number. To make the game more achievable for the contestants, the band numbers were swelled by some, let’s say, more elderly individuals. That might have accounted for those instruments that were being held upside down during the playing of the theme tune!
It’s not something that we can normally report (and I suspect, for that matter, neither can other brass bands) but love bloomed at one of our extensive programme of Christmas Carol gigs. These included Westfield shopping complex, Parson’s Green, the Elk Bar in Fulham and Somerset House Ice rink. 
Fulham Brass Band competed in their final 3rd section competition on Sunday 28th November at the Leicestershire Brass Band Association Open Competition , held at Burleigh College and Garendon High School, Loughborough, Leicestershire. 
Fulham held their annual Christmas concert at All Saints Church for the second year running on 10th December.
