As far as I know the people playing for the October 15 gig are
Laura, Barney, Anne, Bonnie, and Ishmael. In addition, these people
plus Bruce and Stuart will play some or all of the November dates. If
this list is incomplete or inaccurate, please let me know.
Schedule
Next week’s meeting, on October 11, will be limited to and
compulsory for the people playing on October 15.
The meetings on October 18 and 25 and November 1 (or substitute), 8
and 15 are limited to people playing the November gigs:
- Friday November 11th 8:00 pm (Bruce will
miss this one) - Saturday November 12th 8:00 pm
- Sunday November 13th 3:00 pm (we’ve
decided to skip this one and go to West Gallery instead.) - Thursday November 17th 8:00 pm (I think
Barney said he’d miss this one.) - Friday November 18th 8:00 pm (Bruce will
miss this one) - Saturday November 19th 8:00 pm (The West
Gallery gig announced for this date has been cancelled, so we’ll be
playing this date.)
Please check your calendars, and let me know if there are any other
scheduling problems.
We agreed that we’ll try to schedule a coaching session with John
Tyson for one of the November gig rehearsals. We’ll organize rides
for John to come to my place rather than trying to organize
beer-drinking in a place separate from the rehearsals.
After November 15, we will resume our regularly scheduled drop-in
sessions.
Longer term, we’re expecting to play the Walk for Hunger on May 7.
The BRS will probably do a Play the Recorder Month event in March some
time. We’ve talked to Kurt Hoffman about playing wallpaper music on
June 21 in Bridgewater, and we’re discussing playing at a Jeremiah
Ingalls event in July.
Playlist for October 15
We decided to drop “Burst forth my tears” on the grounds that it’s
too difficult to sing outdoors. I’m also dropping Five Reasons on the
grounds that we don’t have time to fix the ragged edges that showed up
last night. It’s plenty long enough of a program to drop more stuff
if ragged edges show up.

§ Probably not on the November program either because of being an
inappropriate feeling, or from too late of a date.
Please let me know if you need me to help you print copies to practice.
