Subject: RE: Mudcat Worldwide Singaround - On Zoom Mondays! From: GUEST,David Polacheck Date: 25 Sep 23 - 10:54 AM Do I have a Mudcat name? If so, what is it? If not, how do I get one? I swear I’m legit; my Dad, Charles Polacheck, was an Almanac Singer in his youth. |

Subject: RE: Mudcat Worldwide Singaround - On Zoom Mondays! From: Felipa Date: 25 Sep 23 - 11:36 AM David Polacheck, I don't think you need to email Joe Offer to register for membership on Mudcat; I think you can still do that directly from the Mudcat website by clicking on "membership" and submitting your email addy and a user name. And it is a good idea to register with this site. But you also don't need to be a Mudcat member to participate in Monday zoom singarounds. To be on the email list to receive the codes weekly, you DO have to email Joe Offer. But Joe is travelling at the moment and Gerry Myerson sent out the zoom code this week. You could get this week's code from someone you know who is a regular participant.

Subject: RE: Mudcat Worldwide Singaround-On Zoom Mondays!! From: Joe Offer Date: 22 Dec 23 - 06:44 PM No Mudcat Singaround on December 25 and January 1. We'll be back January 8. As the year comes to an end and we've completed 3-1/2 years of the Mudcat Worldwide Singaround, I'd like to thank all the people who help so much to keep this thing going. It's amazing what they do. David Kidman Casey Casebeer Gerry Myerson Monique Arlene Immerman Gayle Wade Melissa Marosy Noreen Keene Dawn Berg There are several others who help out now and then, but I've tried to list the ones who help out regularly. I thank them all, and I thank everyone who makes this weekly gathering so much fun. It's been such a pleasure to sing with so many Mudcatters online. It's not a perfect way of communication, but it's pretty darn good. -Joe- |

Live long and prosper! |

Subject: RE: Mudcat Worldwide Singaround-On Zoom Mondays!! From: Joe Offer Date: 20 Jan 24 - 12:19 AM Hi, Everybody - I hope you can sing with us on Zoom on Monday every week. Singing starts at noon Los Angeles time, which is 3 PM in New York and 8 PM in London. We sing for 4-5 hours, and always have a good time. There's been a little discussion lately about our policy on between-song conversation and length of performances, and the like. Different singarounds do things differently. We like to emphasize music and not conversation, and we like to keep the session moving along. We have 25-35 singers every week, and the session can get tedious if there's too much conversation. So please help to keep the session moving along - without being rushed. In general, each person's turn is one song or recitation, plus a brief introduction - limited to five minutes but hopefully shorter. But if a ballad or recitation goes a minute or two overtime, I don't think everybody's going to mind. And sorry, but we really don't want participants giving technical instructions to participants. That's what we have cohosts for. I don't want to get all rulesy about this, but the idea is that we want to keep the session moving along and not get bogged down by conversation. Thanks. -Joe- |
