aint 'group dynamics' FUN?...I'd LOVE to videotape a few sessions/sings and re-run it for certain people to show them exactly how things fell apart when so-and-so changed the mood, or so-and-so did 3 in a row...etc...it is a never-ending problem

and if a few of my DEAR friends knew how much I hate it when they come in, sing a nice song...then proceed to stand at the edge of the circle and gab until someone 'begs' them for another gem!!...folks, if you can't be bothered to LISTEN to others politely, then don't bother to SING for them...(I have been to-- and given --parties where a room was set aside for chatting, and folks who HAD to catch up on the latest gossip were politely, but firmly ,sent there!)
