22 Oct 06 - 05:13 PM (#1865901) Subject: RE: October Song Circle at SINSULL's From: Jeri I'll be there. I can't make the Getaway this year, and it bothers me. It would have been my eith year in a row, and it's the only place I get to meet up with some folks. Not only that, I need a 'joy' fix really badly. Your song circles aren't the Getaway, but they provide a serious amount of joy. Or maybe that's scotch. Who cares. A bed would be nice. The inflatable one was quite comfortable. Maybe I can hand off some small things (about earring sized) for the silent austion. |

Jeri - we are bringing back the Getaway with us - Micca and Khatt, Carole and Andrew and lord knows who else. There will be a November Song Circle.

Mary, I'll tuck in here with my husband, some oatmeal cookies and a pot of tea. The chickens tried to persuade me to bring them into the house rather than their shed, but I politely, firmly, declined.

29 Oct 06 - 09:52 AM (#1871328) Subject: RE: October Song Circle at SINSULL's From: Charley Noble Any survivors? Roll & Go had a wild evening at the Maine Maritime Museum Pirate Party. It was so stormy that they cancelled the usual pirate raid and bonfire on the waterfront. The Museum lost power halfway through our second set but we were able to avert panic by activating Judy's mini-lanten and continuing our singing for another half hour. It's amazing that we could do this in almost complete darkness. I'm sure those kids will have powerful memories of raging billows (just outside our big bay window overlooking the Kennebec River), driving rain, gale force winds, and our songs about pirates and wreckers. It will be amusing this morning to see where we packed everything: the cables, microphones, costumes, the miscellaneous pirate parts. Has anyone seen the parrot? Cheerily, Charley Noble |

Fed them all breakfast and sent them on their way. I lost power yesterday afternoon for a few seconds but all was well last night. Had a few flashlights with fresh batteries ready just in case. Good food, great music. At every lull I warbled Mexicali Rose until someone sang LOUDLY. The high point: Jeri on fiddle, Kendall on guitar, and Tom on concertina performing Ashoken Fairwell. Life is good. Second high point: A surprise phone call from KT and Ebbie. Great to hear their voices but a sad reminder that they won't be at the Getaway. Damn! Thank you all! |

And good choice of food for a blustery night! And, okay, if I have the time, I'll bring TWO plates of shortbread when I bring shortbread.
