The girls will all be travelling up by train for the weekend and it is rumoured that the small town of Alyth is buzzing with curiosity to find out what “Boobs & Brass” is all about – the 600 tickets are already just about sold out!

The proceeds from this concert will be donated to Breast Cancer Campaign with sum of £2500 already being pledged.
