Thread Name: In a session do you need the exact tune?
Subject: RE: In a session do you need the exact tune?
Playing music together is one of the most cooperative of human experiences. It has to be if it is work.

You wouldn't always think so when people don't say who they are, ask who anybody else is, say what the tune is and sometimes play it so fast that it still isn't clear what the tune is.

What do those people who think one guitar is enough do when the second guitarist arrives?

We try, I trust in a natural friendly, way to avoid the above - please let us know when we fail.

Brilliant night last Wednesday: Banjo: Chris, Fiddles: Dave B, Ishbel, Kate, Mary Rose Rochford Merritt, Pete, Guitar: Ken Deeks, Guitaron: Phil Robinson, Uke: Julie Bryce, Hammered Dulcimer: Tom, Mandolins & Mandolas: Liam Markham, Kieran Markham, Glynne Davies, Ant, Brian, Percussion: Gordon, Mickey Van Gelder, Squeezers: Ged Gaskell, Rosie Bryce, Joe Brownbridge, Ted Kemp, Whistles: Janet, Steve, Jenn, and Ursula

How much joy can we have in a small room in a pub?

Come on down Dave!
