The GROUP

Our November GROUP meeting was a litle smaller than the previous ones, but no less enthusiatic. If you weren’t there, you missed it!

 (Pause for reflection on that.)

 We had our first outside guests. Harry and Gertrude live next door to Karol and me. We have put on some private living room concerts for them and their family a few times with our other instruments, hammered dulcimer and guitar. First they were amazed at the size of the banana splits served up by The Fleetwood Diner. They stayed for our jam session and sang along with every song they could. It’s not even Thanksgiving Day yet and we were playing Christmas music. We did have a request from the restaurant staff to play Hava Nagila, but nobody knew it.

 Christine and Patsy didn’t make it. They had some kind of lame excuse about Chistine getting married this month. Humph! Just make sure you’re back from the honeymoon in time for the next meeting. Best wishes for the happy couple from GROUP.

 A first for GROUP was a workshop. I presented my famous “How to Use A G String” workshop. If you weren’t there, you missed it! Next meeting I will present a workshop on playing up the neck.

 We are adding music to the song book on the web site all the time. Make sure to visit it often. Next meeting is December 5 at The Fleetwood Diner. Don’t miss it!
