60s Special Part 1

Hi everyone, I’ve got a few special sessions lined up, and the first one is all 60s songs. And we are going to do our first Beach Boys number too! There will be another 60’s set later in the term because I couldn’t fit in all the ones I wanted do. Also look out in the future for other ‘decade’ specials, a crooners night plus a Beatles/Kinks/Stones evening.

The set –

You really got a hold on me, will you still love me tomorrow, what a wonderful world, walk like a man, Venus, tracks of my tears, tainted love, sweet Caroline, SURFING USA, sugar sugar, son of a preacher man, sitting on the dock of the bay, river deep mountain high, proud Mary, people are strange, nights in white satin, Mrs Robinson

Hope to see lots of you there, new members of any standard are always very welcome.

Spooky set and dates to Christmas….

Hello everyone, here is the set for Tuesday, and we are doing some Halloweeny numbers. (It’s a bit early but we are off for actual Halloween.) Some of the links are pretty tenuous but I’m sure that won’t be much of a suprise!

The Adams Family, Spirit in the Sky, House of the Rising Sun/I put a spell on you medley, Monster Mash, People are Strange, She’s not there, Friday I’m in Love, Hotel California (really tenuous this one), Pyscho Killer, Spooky, Ghost Riders in the Sky, Blockbuster, Starman, Goody Two Shoes, Maxwell’s Silver Hammer, Bring me Sunshine (?!?!?)

Unfortunately we’ve recently done Bad Moon Rising, Living Doll and It’s my party (by Lesley GORE) so I didn’t include them….I haven’t done photos this time but if you want a copy of something in advance just drop me a line.

Dates for next term are the 9th and 23rd of November, and the 7th December. We are going back to fortnightly for the time being…..
