09 Sep 10 - 06:59 PM (#2983503) Subject: Castlebay House Concert at SINSULL's From: SINSULL This was listed on the perma-thread but deserves a thread of its own. And I want to get out the word on our new format. Saturday October 23rd Doors open at 7PM Music starts 7:30 PM or there abouts. This has been a tough year and some of you know I came very close to having to sell my house. We tried to get more interest in the pot luck but Jacqui, TRUBRIT and I carried the burden. I simply cn't afford to feed 20 people at a concert and ten for breakfast. Add in the cost of paper, plastic and wear and tear on my house and... So: Sad but true, we will open at 7PM. Bring wine and desserts. There will be two 45 minute "ACTS". Between them, there will be desserts and coffee or tea while you peruse the CD and book table. Later, a song circle for anyone who chooses to participate. The last three have been amazing. AM, I will serve coffee. If our performers stay over there will be breakfast at Rudy's. Join us if you like but there will be separate tabs.I will of course cover our performers. Maybe, if Obama is successful, we can resume the old format but for now it is austerity budget - first rate entertainment and good company. So who's in for Castlebay? Who needs a bed? Mary |

17 Oct 10 - 12:30 PM (#3009194) Subject: RE: Castlebay House Concert at SINSULL's From: SINSULL Heads up for anyone planning on bringing a pet. I just spent $58 de-fleaing my cats. It also meant - horror of horros - vacuuming furniture, floors, bedding and washing of everything in sight. If there is even a chance of a flea coming into my house, don't do it! under penalty of death do not do it. |

17 Oct 10 - 11:49 PM (#3009574) Subject: RE: Castlebay House Concert at SINSULL's From: GUEST,fred Some people keep folkies as pets. I promise we don't have fleas and will take a shower so people can sit in the front row btw oct 21 is julia's b-day... |

17 Oct 10 - 11:57 PM (#3009578) Subject: RE: Castlebay House Concert at SINSULL's From: ranger1 I know the rules for house concerts - no pets!

And Fred, Julia will not thank you for telling Mary that it is her birthday. Trust me on this one... |

I even keep his prescription for arthritis here. Some day I'll have a dog... |
