Hi DUGs,
One Day Like This
We are going to start this week's meeting with a further look at Elbow's One Day Like This. Considering not all our members knew the song, our play through last week sounded fine. I think we could all see the potential.
To get the best out of it, you really do need to listen to the song (over and over):
Or the Ukulele Group version:
The song sheet, my notes and links are on the website: One Day Like This.
Just be aware, these are likely to change as we work on our arrangement of the song.
Playlist
A big thanks to Sandra for picking this week's playlist. I always enjoy seeing what members send in with their suggestions. It is also one less thing for me to think about when putting things together for Wednesday's meeting. Please let's have some more 'volunteers'!
So, here is Sandra's choices. I think you'll agree, some good tunes here...
One Day Like This (my choice!)
Dirty Old Town
Feeling Groovy
Crocodile Rock
Whiskey in the Jar
Mamma Mia
Should I Stay or Should I Go
Ring of Fire
Blowing in the Wind
Can’t Buy Me Love
Country Roads
Membership Directory
I motioned last week the idea of putting together a membership directory on the website.
This would be in the Members Only section, and not open for general public to view. It could have as much, or as little personal information as you choose (just a photo and a name - or your life history!)
It would, of course be optional - only those who agree would have their name/photo in the directory.
I asked members to let me know what they thought of the idea. I haven't had many responses, but those I have received so far have been positive, and since nobody seem to be against the idea, I'm going to start putting it together soon... watch this space!
