Hi everyone, here is the set for next Tuesday. I’ve tried to get together a set with a bit of variety but most of them are pretty straight forward sing-a-long numbers bar the odd bit of finger picking or kazooing.

Amarillo, Bad Moon Rising, Five Hundred Miles, Happy Together, I Heard it Through The Grapevine, It Must Be Love, Karma Chameleon, Rhinestone Cowboy, Ring Of Fire, Stuck in the Middle, That’ll be the Day, These Boots are made for Walking, Top of the World, Waterloo, Waterloo Sunset, When I’m 64

We will then do 8 to 10 of the best of these the following Saturday at the concert at Claremont Gardens. Here is a link to the Surbiton Festival website It will be very relaxed and good fun, don’t worry if you haven’t played in public before.

As always, if you can make the gig but not the rehearsal that is totally fine, and vice versa. The more of us the better though!

We are on at 1 45. I was sent an email with the following – ‘the general arrangement is: attend around 30mins in advance of your scheduled time, perform, then allow 5-10mins or so for the next act to get ready before their start time.’

There is parking in the Sainsburys Car Park and Waitrose Car Park but the on street stuff will probably have restrictions so bear that in mind.I think if you go far enough up Balaclava Road or Lovelace Road it eventually becomes free but it might be a bit of a walk!
