Thread Name: Are sessions elitist?
Subject: RE: Are sessions elitist?
On the subject of practicing new material at a session--some friends and I have established a monthly session for the very purpose of practicing new material, but it is held in a private home and is invitational, though we continually invite virtually everybody we know. So far a grand total of seven people have ever participated, and usually four or five. The idea behind it is to have at least a couple of other people at chanteyranger's open session who can sing along on the first run-through of songs with more complex choruses or unusual tunes.
