Subject: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: GutBucketeer Date: 23 Feb 00 - 01:23 AM Just re-posting the time and date for the next Hearme Sing.
Sunday Feb. 27 at 7:30 pm EST in the newest Mudcat Hearme room (see Jon's site)
Newest Mudcat Hearme
See the discussion in the "Regular Hearme time, When ?" thread.
Topic: Weather Songs! good, bad, unusual, turbulent, etc. Does anyone have an El Nino song? I hear its wrecking havoc in Texas again this year. For anyone that remembers Woodstock (the first one) please no rain chants. Should be easire to connect than last week. Think about topics and times for the following week. Would Alison, or any of the others away from the U.S. East Coast like to set a time?

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: GutBucketeer Date: 23 Feb 00 - 01:30 AM I'd also like to make an additional request. At any Hearme Sing the standing topic is: Songs From the Mudcat Songbook! We can see the songs in print, but haven't HEARD them!!! How can the folk process work without a performance of these wonderful efforts. So, if you have made a contribution to the Mudcat Songbook: Please sing/play it for us!!!! JAB |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: harpgirl Date: 23 Feb 00 - 08:05 AM ...guess what JAB? Marty Schuman's daughter of the "Folklorries" wrote a song called "El Nino!" I'll see if I can get the song from her before Sunday...ah heck, she probably won't let me sing it... |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Susan A-R Date: 26 Feb 00 - 11:20 PM I know that this is probably answered elsewhere (and you can blue clicky me there, that'd be fine) but what do I need to d, technically, in order to participate in the hearme sings? Susan A-R |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: GutBucketeer Date: 26 Feb 00 - 11:39 PM The first thread about Hearme goes into what you need pretty extensively. It's here: Basically, you must have a Windows PC. It must have Microsoft Internet Exporer Version 3.02 or greater installed on it (you don't have to use IE, i use Netscape for Example, but HearMe uses some of its components) You need a Microphone and sound card. Hope to see you there. |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: wysiwyg Date: 27 Feb 00 - 11:03 PM Highly recommend this experience to any who have never been in this. Like huddling around a radio in the long ago, willing to stand any tech problems to be with each other, so nice. Thanks to all of you for including me, mic-less and all. Technology is up to Hardiman, I'll hook up when I can! |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: WyoWoman Date: 27 Feb 00 - 11:56 PM Well, RATZ. I got in for a few minutes, then my server kept crashing. I think it's more the ISP than anything having to do with my computer. I did experience enough of it to know what a kick it will be. I have the microphone and am good to go, if I can get online and stay that way. Sorry I missed most of the party... WW |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: alison Date: 28 Feb 00 - 12:02 AM Party still going...... unfortunatly my mic won't let the others hear me..... slainte alison |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: katlaughing Date: 28 Feb 00 - 12:32 AM Wow, it was wonderful. Got to hear Allan C and Don Meixner, both for the first time. First rate, all of you! Thanks. WW, sorry we didn't get to hear you. Oh, and several were new listeners without mics available this time, including Micca, Sabra, Sorcha, Clifton53(for just a few minutes), and others. You all get some mics going, okay. We want to HearYou, too! Oh, and momnpop's son Ryan sang and Sorcha's daughter added some text comments, too. I sang:
Colorado Trail and, I read:
To Camp Out Right by my grandfather Thanks for the fun and memories, everyone! kat |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Jon Freeman Date: 28 Feb 00 - 01:26 AM WW - heard you talking wish I had got to hear you singing. I have had a great night - nicely roounded of by a couple of fiddle tunes played by Jeri - Planxty Irwiine and Lord whatever his name is Itchy something. Jon |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Sorcha Date: 28 Feb 00 - 01:31 AM yo kat, picked up on the fact that part of the time Sorcha was not Sorcha, but Caitlín, eh? At least, Sorcha is not katlaughing! |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Jeri Date: 28 Feb 00 - 02:11 AM Jon, "Lord Itchy?" LOL! (Inchiquin) I sang a bunch o' songs - actually croaked the majority of them. I believe momnopp's son's name is Dylan. What a fine singer he is - I hope to hear more from him. I'm enjoying these sings more each time!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: GUEST,micca at work Date: 28 Feb 00 - 07:00 AM If(when) I acquire a working mic there is still a drawback to full participation, 130 am is not a good time to be singing, with Aud(my SO) asleep. i colud find myself getting the Cleigh treatment (having a dynamite enema) or definitly getting blown up in some forrm. I will think about this and see if I can think of a solution.. |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: katlaughing Date: 28 Feb 00 - 07:45 AM Micca, we have asked before about setting up different times to accomodate UK and/or Australia time. Let us know of a good time for you and let's see what we can do. Momnpop, sorry I got Dylan's name wrong when writing here. Thanks, Jeri, sorry, too that I missed your fiddling. kat |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: momnopp Date: 28 Feb 00 - 08:33 AM Kat, fear not. Jeri, thanks for setting her straight ;-) yes, it's Dylan. He's 10 and has quite the personality! He joined the chorus this year and has had a blast with it. I'm so pleased that he's gravitated towards singing; one of my greatest pleasures in life. I really enjoy these sings and I love to tell people what I do on a Sunday evening on the computer. . . You all are a terrific bunch, thanks for being just how you are. Love, JudyO |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: katlaughing Date: 28 Feb 00 - 08:38 AM Well, jeez, as PeterT says, "proffreed"! Sorry, Judy, my fingers get ahead of themselves...got your name messed up to, momnopp, sorry.:-) |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Allan C. Date: 28 Feb 00 - 09:12 AM Last night was my first time on the Hearme thing. As it was I tuned in late. So I wasn't aware that kat had already done "Colorado Trail", but it was one of the four I did. Here's the list:
Navajo Trail - by Marjorie Elliot. I grew up singing this together with a 45RPM record I had of Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers. It is a really nice song!
Even Such Is Time - by Sir Walter Raleigh
Colorado Trail - Collected by Carl Sandburg with an additional verse added by Lee Hays The Oregon Trail - by K.W. Todd (I would be glad to share info on where to get a recording of this song as performed by Tania Opland. Just send me a note.) This was a really fun thing to do on a Sunday night. Not quite like being there in person; but it was great to hear such a fine collection of such talented people. Even the people who didn't have microphones seemed to enjoy listening. So if you haven't tuned in before, I urge you to give the next one a try. |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Uncle_DaveO Date: 28 Feb 00 - 09:44 AM I had a ball! I hope EVERYBODY enjoyed it as much as I did. I sang "It Blowed Away" with banjo "The Frozen Logger" with banjo "The Sweet Little Window" with guitar "Beans, Bacon & Gravy" with banjo "No More Beer" with banjo "The Pig" a cappella
Okay, so what do we do next week?

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: katlaughing Date: 28 Feb 00 - 11:53 AM Flowers of springtime? We had a wonderful thread last year about what everyone was planting in their gardens, should offer up some inspiration, click here |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Jeri Date: 28 Feb 00 - 12:49 PM Kat, how about "How Does Your Garden Grow?" (Just so we can work in herbs and veggies, too.) Funny thing, the weather's been getting warmer here, and the snow is disappearing - everybody I know who grows things has been talking about gardening. I'm willing to start earlier on Sun. If we started at 3PM Mudcat time, it would be 8PM in the UK. Of course, that would be some ridiculous hour in OZ... |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Micca Date: 28 Feb 00 - 01:21 PM I am wondering if a pre recorded tape would be permitted? then there need be no extraneous noise. I know it isn't strictly Kosher and against the spirit of the live session but if my love is weilding a leg of lamb( see Song Challendge 11) I will not sing......***BG**** |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: katlaughing Date: 28 Feb 00 - 03:10 PM I could certainly start earlier, too. I think Oz would be about 6am, the next day, though, so....I ahd suggested maybe alternating this each week, so that everyone gets a chance at a decent hour: US-UK-US-OZ??? Micca, that may be a good solution, I don't think it would be a problem with anyone, at least not me. Although, I think we should be able to accomodate your times in the UK and those is OZ, too. Jeri, I love it, that would be a great topic. It has been like that here, too. My irises tried to come two weeks ago and they are never up until April or May here, usually!!! Weird and kinda scary!! kat |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: DonMeixner Date: 28 Feb 00 - 07:01 PM I sang The Mother's Kiss, Can't help But Wonder Where I'm Bound, Untitled by Si Kahn (Melody maybe my own.) Don |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: Bill D Date: 29 Feb 00 - 07:55 PM so...are the archives up yet?..Oh..right...*sigh*...well, mebbe next time..but I have a local sing and 3 days of a Woodworking show to do this weekend, too....(P.S...'themes' are neat...they help you focus your mind, and perhaps HearMe sings could be worked out so that different time zones could have 'comfortable' times, and join the others when staying up late is not such a hassle!) |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: GutBucketeer Date: 29 Feb 00 - 11:01 PM Bill: That's a great Idea (hand hits head)!!!! People can start the sing at anytime on Sunday!!! It's not like we would be showing up while the host is still in the shower, the newspapers are on the couch, and the dishes are in the sink. The virtual song room is always spotless and ready for company! So If anyone wants to get going before 7:30 EST more power too them. Just announce when you will be starting in the list! JAB |
|
Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: wysiwyg Date: 01 Mar 00 - 09:16 PM I THINK the link into HearMe at the top of this thread's postings will take us to Mbo... |

Subject: RE: Event: Hearme Sing Sunday 2/27 7:30 From: MMario Date: 01 Mar 00 - 09:21 PM yes it will....if he ever decides to SING!!!!! on now.... |
