A shot of an orchestra, complete with double-bass, saxophones, trumpet, drums, accordion and piano, playing in the old PDC building. Their name is partially obscured but the bass drum bears the words, "BB", "Phones", "11 - Feilding, 7902 Palm. Nth.", and it's likely to be Pompey Durie's Orchestra". The Plaza Mall stands where the PDC building used to be.
