GUEST,Don Wise Bad song choices at a gig (74* d) RE: Bad song choices at a gig 29 Dec 11


Back in the days of The Garden Gnome Ceilidh Band (the 'big band' including Pete & Chris Coe with Rog Watson as caller) we did a gig in Kendal. Rog had made up a pseudo german dance which required hornpipes. All went well until we played the choral part from Beethoven's 9th - as a hornpipe (Johnny Adams,our bandleader,enjoyed a certain notoriety for his spontaneous tune ideas)....ca.33% disapproved of us misusing the German National Anthem, ca.33% disapproved of us misusing classical music and the rest......loved it.
