09 Jul 10 - 09:34 PM (#2942724) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Charley Noble Dan- Best of luck with this house concert. I really do wish we didn't have a conflict. Will you be attending Getaway? Cheerily, Charley Noble |

11 Jul 10 - 11:12 AM (#2943431) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: TRUBRIT The hostess is coming late to the thread......sounds like a good crowd and I haven't mentioned it yet to my friends who came to the last gathering. We're thinking light summery food for the pot luck - huge Nicoise salad (w/anchovies for the purists) then some home made egg salad, tuna salad, that type of thing ---- and rolls for people to fix what they want to eat. I'll try and get my ddaughter to come -- she is 'stepparenting' a little boy just about Kiran's age........ Will Nancy King be joining us?? |
11 Jul 10 - 01:02 PM (#2943481) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: SINSULL What would you like the rest of us to provide, Deborah? Desserts? Bread? Cheese? Fresh fruit? Crudite? Soft drinks? Wine? Beer? Let us know. Mary |
11 Jul 10 - 03:31 PM (#2943562) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: GUEST,kendall Come out folks, the food is to die for it's included in the price and Dan is a multi talented performer. |
11 Jul 10 - 10:34 PM (#2943730) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Dan Schatz Well I can walk and chew bubblegum, it's true - though I'm a bit out of practice on the latter.... No, Nancy King (otherwise known as "Kiran's Grandma") won't be with us this time, sadly. Dan |
13 Jul 10 - 12:07 AM (#2944176) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: TRUBRIT Bummer! Sins - you make a suggestion on what you would like to bring and we will build a menu around it ( or HE will - like I can do menus!!!!!!) |

13 Jul 10 - 09:48 AM (#2944324) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: GUEST Blast! We'll be on our way to Muscongus Island, where we have a piping and preaching gig the next morning, followed by a couple days of lollygagging there--a very rare overnight excursion for us farmers, as we have a sucker...er, friend...who has agreed to mind the farm. Here's hoping y'all have a lovely time of it, though! --Cuilionn / "Other Holly" P.S. We're hoping to pull together another on-farm song circle one of these days. You calendar-keepers have any ideas about early September? |
13 Jul 10 - 10:10 AM (#2944338) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: SINSULL Damn, Holly! I was sure we would see you and your fresh chicken friendly eggs. Looking forward to the next song circle. You pick a date that works for you and we'll work around it. Mary |
15 Jul 10 - 06:01 PM (#2945813) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Dan Schatz I'll be sure glad to see and sing with whoever's there. Kendall - any chance I can borrow your 12? Dan |
19 Jul 10 - 01:59 PM (#2947754) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Dan Schatz So, Kendall, about that 12? I won't be able to have mine with me and there's a few songs I'd love to use a 12 for. Especially yours. :) Dan |
19 Jul 10 - 02:17 PM (#2947772) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: SINSULL I will see that he brings it Dan. |

I'll be stopping in Burlington to film an episode of The Songwriter's Notebook, so I'll have my Apollonio 6 with me. See you in 2 weeks! Whee! Dan |
22 Jul 10 - 09:51 PM (#2950321) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Midchuck Drat. That would make a great road trip for the new van.

03 Aug 10 - 05:41 PM (#2957567) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: ranger1 OK, crackers and cheese it is. As for Kendall flirting with Mary, I was wondering why he was calling her a desert and wondering Sahara, Gobi, Sonoran, Kalahari... |

I wasn't home for much of July and braising in the heat, and I'm enjoying the nice autumn weather and not doing anything.

08 Aug 10 - 02:16 PM (#2960671) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: TRUBRIT i thought it went very well -- a goodly number of people, two adorable youngsters (Kiran and Leon) and Jacui's grandson Louis(Lewis - no sure how you spell it) were there......food was good and plentul and music was super... |
08 Aug 10 - 02:42 PM (#2960689) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: SINSULL It was a wonderful evening. Some surprise visitors from the DC area. Two adorable two year olds followint "the big boy", Lewis around. Bountiful food with Deborah convinced there wan't enough. And music, beautiful music. Dan led off with an hour of songs mostly with choruses ranging from trdional folk to The Rose Tatto. He played an assortment of instruments - autoharp, banjo (be still my beating herat), Kendall's twelve string and his own six. Dan has a beutiful voice and simple delivery. He could have gone on for another hour and all would have been pleased to listen. The crowd favorite must have been The Wheels On The Train Go CLACKITY CLACK. And we killed off Puff The Magic Dragon. Later the mention of Helen Scheyer led to a few "over the top" Helen songs, songs of death and goodbye. Everyone participated and it was a very special evening. Even Kendall performed - with Kiran ehtralled. I hope someone got a picture of those eyes. It was magic. Everyone go a hug goodnight from Leon - what a cutie. Some got hugs from the snake population. Jacqui was rescued several times when Morticia got a bit too amorous. LOL You had to be there. Lewis watched longingly as Dan played guitar. He was convinced that he could never play that well until he found out that Dan started at 15. Lewis is 10 and already playing by ear. heh heh Now if we can only keep him away from the electric stuff. It was a beautiful evening. But if Maeve sang I missed it while I was downstairs with Leon and Kiran. I heard Jacqui from there but missed a lot. So TRUBRIT is right. I think it went very well. I was sorry to have t end so early. SINS |
08 Aug 10 - 03:20 PM (#2960706) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: maeve It was indeed very good music from Dan, followed by Kendall's and Jacqui's delightful short set. No, Mary, I didn't sing. I had some songs and poems ready but was so weary I thought it best to drive home while I could do so safely. I left after delivering a cherry tree. The sounds of "Puff" were in the air as I drove away. Thanks for the delightful hospitality, good company and refreshments, and wonderful music. Keep a watch for the re;ease of Dan's new cd/book project. It will be a treasure. m |
08 Aug 10 - 06:53 PM (#2960803) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Dan Schatz I would have loved to hear you sing, Maeve. Next time. Puff and Wheels - hmmm, weren't those the songs you sang, Sins? (And a great version of Brother Can You Spare a Dime, among other things). Dan |

09 Aug 10 - 06:33 AM (#2961005) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: kendall That little blond guy was funny; I was having some congestion and making subtle coughing sounds. He started doing it too! I asked him if he was making fun of me and he nodded his head YES. What a cutie.He gave us all a hug when we left. Kiran gave me a hug too when we left. I was feeling like death taking a crap but I'm glad I went. |
09 Aug 10 - 08:23 AM (#2961046) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: jacqui.c I had a great time - very impressed by Dan's latest song writing effort, which was excellent. My non folkie family also enjoyed themselves - Lewis now has a bar to aim for with his music. Neither Kendall or I were really totally well and had to leave earlier than I would have wished, but we thoroughly enjoyed the time we had. |
09 Aug 10 - 12:22 PM (#2961189) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: Dan Schatz I'm glad you were there too - Kendall, your biggest littlest fan was absolutely entranced by the piece you two did together. Could the folks who ordered a new CD (and received the little sampler in advance) remind me who you are so I can make sure to set copies aside for you? Thanks. And Jacqui, I'm glad you liked the new song. It was only a day old as of Saturday, so I'm still smoothing out the wrinkles. Dan |
09 Aug 10 - 09:50 PM (#2961607) Subject: RE: So Portland song circle with Dan Schatz From: TRUBRIT so glad everyone enjoyed themselves. I always think there won't be enough food!!!!!!!! The cute little blonde came for dinner the next day as my son is home for a flying visit from CA so we had family dinner.......Leon sat at the piano and 'played' it magnificently.....when he finished, he got down, turned to me and said, 'I awesome'. I had to agree! |
