When I started the monthly Song Circle, I had Barry Finn's party in mind. It was late in the evening when I got up the courage to sing. And the response from people like Susan A-R and Joe Offer was kindly supportive. There have been a number of newbies who have sung in my home knowing that that they were among friends. Last week, a business acquaintance attended, sang for the first time in public in her life and then got all teary saying that she had just fulfilled a lifetime dream. It doesn't get much better than that.
