The next jam will be August 23rd at the gazebo in Centennial Park starting at 6:30. I’ve bumped the time up because it gets dark earlier, but if you can’t come until 7, don’t worry, please still come. Suggested donation $1.
We will be playing the same set of songs as in July. I decided to make a few changes as we felt it was a bit heavy on the Johnny Cash. I love Johnny, but I also want to include music to suit the taste of all members. So, we will warm up with:
Clementine, Drunken Sailor & Good Old Hockey Game (all from June).
I’ll add 3 4 new songs:
Happy by NeverShoutNever
Little Red Uke (an adaptation of the Beach Boy song Little Deuce Coupe)
When I’m Cleaning Windows by George Formby (it seems the link didn’t work before, but it shoud now)
Something by the Beatles
We will still play the following from July’s playlist:
CCR’s Proud Mary
Van Morrison’s Brown Eyed Girl
Johnny Cash’s Folsom Prison Blues
Boney M – Rivers of Babylon
Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville
If there is something else you would like to play please suggest it. Or if you would like, you can play it for us.
Loose format of the jam will be:
— quickly discuss any club business
— warm up with some easy 2-3 chord songs
— play the more challenging but not difficult songs
— break for chit chat
— open mike if anyone is interested in sharing a song or skill with us
— play any songs we missed
