06 Apr 00 - 11:48 AM (#207719) Subject: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Jeri Jon suggested having a topic for the sing. Mbo suggested barnyard animals. I like it, and if everyone else does, or can live with it, I'd like to suggest we use Mbo's suggestion. (For the first song at least, after that, it's a free-for-all.) Of course, no one's going to call the Topic Police on you if you don't want to play along.
They live in the barnyard, have four legs or wings, Note: people have been pretty literal with previous topics. Be sneaky. Think songs about "old goats," cowards (chickens), "Ewe Only Hurt The One Ewe Love," ...etc. |

07 Apr 00 - 11:21 PM (#208685) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Bill D now, now...you DO have your minds in the barnyard..*grin*...(actually, it's the chickens that are easiest...) |

07 Apr 00 - 11:23 PM (#208688) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: MMario Nope, Bill D, shamed as I am to admit it, I took a bunch of farm practicum courses in college, and I gotta tell you, the pigs is easiest. Though if you hypnotize 'em, the chickens is pretty easy too.... ohmygad, did I REALLY just admit that? |

07 Apr 00 - 11:32 PM (#208698) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: catspaw49 .......uh.....ya' need to move off the farm Mario.......maybe a nice condo in the city where the "pigs" may charge a few bucks, but at least they're in the same species. Spaw |

08 Apr 00 - 01:32 AM (#208755) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Mark Cohen I think on Callie's farm they used to sing "Wimoweh." I hope to be there Sunday. Can I start with my second song? Well, I suppose I could go with "My Sweetheart's the Man in the Moo" Aloha, Mark |

10 Apr 00 - 08:19 AM (#209528) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Dulci46 From the list of songs you all sang it looks like I left to early. Mbo would have loved to heard "Star of The County Down" been learning to play that one and having some problems with it. Like I said last night you all are so good. Very enjoyable. Gonna try to get my mic working. |

10 Apr 00 - 03:49 PM (#209773) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Joe Offer Jeri - from your messages above, I gather it started about 7:30 PM Sunday night, Mudcat time. Alison, BigDog, and I sang our final songs and closed the circle at 3 AM. I'd say that's a veritable marathon! And with participation from at least three continents, Europe, North America, and Australia. Any others? -Joe- |
|
10 Apr 00 - 03:56 PM (#209777) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Caitrin I sang "Red is the Rose" before I got kicked off in the interest of doing school work. I wish I could have hung around longer...it looks like there was some great singing going on! I don't think there were any more continents, Joe. Pretty impressive, though, isn't it? |

I was camping this weekend with the scouts. Came back and went to bed. Wind Rain, Snow, Freezing. At least we earned our Polar Bear Patches.
Sounds like it was a great time. JAB |

11 Apr 00 - 02:49 PM (#210166) Subject: RE: HearMe Sing Apr 9th From: Uncle_DaveO Sorry I couldn't be there this time. I was in Maryland, at the Maryland Banjo Academy, for three days of Banjo Heaven!
Actually the MBA was over by Sunday night, but I stayed overnight at the center where it was held, so as to start the 10-hour drive home Monday morning.
While you folks were singing to each other, I was jamming and singing with another banjo player at one of the dorms, having a grand old time!
Had I been with you, I would I have done a little banjo song I wrote, called Hog on Ice. Do it for you some other time. Dave Oesterreich |
