12 Sep 11 - 10:53 PM (#3222289) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Genie Why does the schedule say "LATE NIGHT MUSIC in RETREAT CENTER, NATURE CENTER, and EHLERS HALL" with no mention of the Peace Cabin? Aren't we gonna stay up all night jammin' and singin' in the Peace Cabin this year like normal? Genie |

13 Sep 11 - 08:46 AM (#3222447) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Nancy King I posted to this thread yesterday, but my post seems to have disappeared. Dunno why. The news about the schedule was also in the "Program Suggestions" thread. Anyhow, we're pretty pleased with the schedule, and hope you are, too. Take a good look -- if you are a workshop leader and we have you in two places at once, let us know NOW and we'll fix it. If you just want to BE in two (or more) places at once, well, welcome to the club. Better too much that too little, right? Once again, we were unable to arrange a cloning workshop. Sorry. If you haven't yet registered, do it NOW, please. Looking forward to seeing you all there! |

13 Sep 11 - 01:48 PM (#3222641) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Genie Yeah, CB, there will be a "This Is Us" Mudcat CDs release at Getaway, but I don't know what form it will take. A session where excerpts from the CDs are played? (That could take quite a while.) An announcement at the Saturday night concert, along with a display of the CDs in the CD sales area? Posters? Maybe Bradfordian or michaelr will fill us in. |

13 Sep 11 - 05:46 PM (#3222753) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: CupOfTea What a fabulous time this looks to be. It's breaking my heart that I can't go this year. The economics of being downsized & a splurge in going to OLD SONGS just before getting the chop, not knowing I wouldn't be able to do both, and make a choice just sucks bilgewater. I SO wanted a reprise of Sally Rogers' Music Theory session that was so densely packed with "aha!" moments last year, I can't remember them all, even from my notes. John Roberts & David Jones doing music hall songs- way too much fun (though it might not quite match the time the two of them did that workshop with Heather Wood-in a Viking helmet- at Fox Valley) A day of ballads... gahhhhhh I want to be there!!!! Last year was my first time attending, after hearing about it for years, and it far surpassed the expectations of fun. That was in spite of a very costly car repair/rental incident that got me there quite late. I'm going to have to put myself on the list of people who have steely determination to attend Getaway 2012.

13 Sep 11 - 09:07 PM (#3222852) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: dick greenhaus Re "This is Us". It would be nice if folks that want to buy a set would let me know, so that I'd have some idea of how many to bring? I'm getting too old to lug CDs back and forth. |

13 Sep 11 - 09:10 PM (#3222854) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: ClaireBear Maybe we should start a thread for that, Dick. (And I'd like one, please!) |

13 Sep 11 - 11:23 PM (#3222887) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Severn It looks like I go last on Sunday's schedule, co-leading a humorous songs workshop, up against Farewell Songs and Lullabyes. I guess that makes it a choice for you all of Leave Them, Leave Them Laughing and Leave Consciousness Altogether. Three great ways to go out. Wish I could be at them all, but I'll try to provide some relief for fatigue and tearful farewells while they stay busy providing relief from Roger and I. There'll probably also be a traditional Love Them And Leave Them Workshop going on behind the bushes somewhere, and maybe a Lever Brothers, Lever tradional clean nautical farewell songs jam down by the water, as well. Take your chance at your chants wherever you will and you shouldn't be able to go wrong. I understand they were going to offer my co-host the Lullabyes slot and call the workshop "Roger-Over and Out", but I'm glad to be working with him and his vast repetoire of funny stuff instead. See you all there! |

14 Sep 11 - 12:35 AM (#3222906) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Genie Dick, I definitely want to buy at least one full set. I may want more, but I'm not sure how many I can fit into my airplane luggage. Genie |

22 Sep 11 - 11:02 AM (#3227172) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Linda Goodman Zebooker Wonderful schedule. It looks like a great mix of technical tips and topic songs. It's heartening to see Jesse Greer on there as a co-leader. I see him around town as a grown-up few times a year, but I always remember Jesse as that young kid who played Risk and Dungeons & Dragons with my son at my first few Getaways in the early 2000's. I love the idea of the all-day Ballad workshop. Those songs will be getting the breathing room they really need. I too wish I could see Sally Rogers' Theory Workshop again. I also still have my notes from last year. Sing well, kids. Looking forward to being there next year. |

27 Sep 11 - 10:41 PM (#3230304) Subject: RE: 2011 Getaway Schedule Up From: Martha Burns Well, we can always do both. That WOULD be odd, wouldn't it, to be singing about clothing without wearing any, ourselves. |

I bought his book at Old Songs thinking I'd get an autograph at Getaway. Next year for both of us, I hope!
