Slow Session Tomorrow Night...

Dear Friends, Thanks to those of you who came out to the Guilderland Library yesterday to support us and fight for chairs with the elderly...we had a great time. A friend of ours even hosted an after-party for us! So, our elbows are warmed up, but our fingers are tired! Anyone want to come out to Old Songs and play some tunes? This Wednesday, March 12, 7:30 PM at the Old Songs Community Arts Center, 37 South Main, Voorheesville!

Here's our list of session sets. We'll go through them first at a nice, reasonable pace: The Mountain Road (DMaj) Swinging on a Gate (GMaj) Merry Blacksmith (DMaj) (Reels)
Tobins (D) Morrison's Jig (Emin) Kesh Jig (G) Brendan Tonra's (D) (Jigs)
Father Kelly's (G) Speed the Plough (D) (Reels)
Swallowtail Jig (Emin) Gallagher's Frolics (Emin) Mist Covered Mountain (Amin) Kesh Jig Father O'Flynn's Blackthorn Stick (G) (Jigs)
Banshee (G) Silver Spear (D) Cooley's Reel (Emin) Come West Along the Road (G) (Reels)
Her Long Golden Hair Flowing Down Her Back (Amin) (slow tune)
Inisheer (G) (waltz)
The Peacock's Feather hornpipes (Dmin & G?)

We'll start the evening off with those, and then move to some other stuff -- maybe some new sets. We had some suggestions, and I just have to get a second to look them over and work them up. Elaine, if you come, would you bring sheet music for your tune?

See you all very soon!
