Hi everyone, lots of info for you…..
Firstly, the Surbiton Festival is happening this Saturday. We are very short on numbers so if you can make it please come. Even if you didn’t come to the rehearsal or haven’t played with us for a while!
Here is the set list – Hound Dog, Cecilia (with Kazoo), Country Roads, See You Later Alligator, Every Day, Delilah, King Of The Road, Help, I Wanna Be Like You, Proud Mary, Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head, Dedicated Follower Of Fashion, Five Hundred Miles
We are on at 12pm in the same place as last year (Claremont Gardens – near Waitrose and the Station) – If everyone can be there around half an hour before we go on that would be great. Bring a stand, if you can play standing up do so, if not bring something to sit on. Also bring a couple of pegs to stop your music blowing around. Weather is currently looking OK but keep your fingers crossed….
There is a big car park behind Surbiton Station which should be OK to use if you need parking. Alternatively come by bus or train! Here is a link to the website which has all the info – Surbiton Festival
Secondly, we are back on Tuesday 30th for the next session, and I am returning to my alphabetical odyssey through the songbook. We are up to ‘S’ – here is the set
Space Oddity, Spirit in the Sky, Spooky, Stand By Me, Starman, Streets of London, Stuck in the Middle with You, Stupid Cupid, Subterranean Homesick Blues, Surfing USA, Summer Of 69, Sunny Afternoon, Super Trouper, Sway, Sweet Caroline
And finally, Colin sent me this message –
‘We have had an invite via my daughter Emma to perform 30 minutes of Christmas songs in the front entrance of Waitrose Banstead on Thursday 11th Dec. The exact time to be arranged between 5 – 7 pm’
It sounds fun but unless I get work cancellations it’s going to be a bit difficult for me. But Colin did say he was happy to lead it so it could be a goer! We can discuss on Tuesday and see if there are available numbers. And we will have just done the Christmas session on the 9th so the songs will all be in tip top shape.
I think that’s everything, see you Saturday/Tuesday.
