Real Steel went to Barbados on their first tour in 1995, it was a fantastic trip!
Each day we had to walk a mile along the beach to get to the 'pan yard'
 
Toussaint works them very very hard to get the best out of 'his' band
 
The Bajan sunset
 
Our first gig, at the Glitter Bay hotel
 
Bob soon became renowned for his unique style of dancing
 
We hired a Mini Moke for transport which turned out to be invaluable
 
Lucy's dancing was almost as unique as Bob's
 
One gig was at the National Youth Festival in the afternoon sun. We had to be careful not to get sunstroke
 
We were invited on board the Jolly Roger pirate ship to perform
 
This was our first time playing at sea and it made for an interesting time
 
This was the best way to view the island
 
Tracy Bradley, double second player
 
While playing at the International Youth Cricket Festival we met Sir Garfield Sobers
 
We played a lunchtime concert at the Frank Collymore Hall in Bridgetown
 
After the Collymore hall concert in the dressing room
 
Cooling off in the tropical rain at Bombas
 
The view from the hills was great
 
We were invited to play at Bombas Beach Bar
 
It was lucky they provided a marquee
 
Possibly the most exotic place we have ever performed
 
We all went to church and some of the girls performed
 
The Motley Crew after the church performance. Note Toussaint's shiny suit
 
During the second week we were accompanied by a film crew making a documentary about the trip
