Subject: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: My guru always said Date: 02 Nov 05 - 03:25 PM Well, Breezy's scraping the bottom of the barrel here, coz he's asked me to do the 18th November at the Wandering Windward Club. But I took him at his word and I'm looking forward to coming back to my 'old home' club (they're pretty classy Singers there) *grin* I can't be absolutely certain at this stage, due to the Wandering nature of the club, but I think it might be at the Comfort Hotel - then again, it could be at the Duke of Marlborough - who can say? But if you're able to come along I'll be glad to see you there, bring a smile & your voice & let's have a good sing! |

Subject: RE: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: George Papavgeris Date: 03 Nov 05 - 04:49 PM Something tasteful and enchanting, no doubt. But the lady is great, irrespective of clothes. Perhaps I should rephrase that... I am seriously gutted that I can't be there; Hil's voice can do a lot to soothe my disturbed psyche. Skin'em, lass! |

Subject: RE: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: breezy Date: 05 Nov 05 - 05:03 PM Reheasals are going very well. |
Subject: RE: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: My guru always said Date: 06 Nov 05 - 06:58 AM LOL Breezy!! What rehearsals???? But seriously, I'm in the process of deciding which songs to sing, seem to have far too many good ones to choose from. Got a list of Definites & another of Possibles (you can tell I'm an Administrator can't you?). I'm trying to make it a good mix of old favourites and newer ones you may not have heard me sing before (unless you've been to all the Festivasls I have). There's even one song I haven't sung out anywhere yet, but I'm hoping it'll be ready. Good choruses, definitive ballads, tear-jerkers & laughter (there should be something to enjoy in that lot)!! And of course, I'm hoping that Breezy might accompany a few too (Don't let that put you off though, we who know Breezy also know that he can behave very well indeed... at times....). And you never know, there might be a bag of doughnuts as a raffle prize - How can you resist? |

Subject: RE: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: Ross Date: 11 Nov 05 - 04:10 AM Hi Guru - you're slipping down the table somewhat How's the practice going? |
Subject: RE: MGAS gotta Gig St Albans UK, 18th Nov 05 From: My guru always said Date: 11 Nov 05 - 05:04 AM Practise? No chance, hectic at the moment. Did try a new song at Byfleet club last night & I think I'll risk it at St Albans next week. It's got a Fab chorus & I just know that the Windward Chorus-singers will give it some wellie *grin* Come to think of it, at the moment the list of songs is 2/3 choruses. Hmmm... wonder if I should put some of the ballads back in? *only joking* |
