Hi DUGs,
BraveUke!
I'm still on Cloud Nine after an amazing weekend!
As you know, I'm going to be away this week, so I'll do a full report on the Festival next week.
Two or three people have told me they are going to send videos of our performance on Saturday evening. Once I've got these in, I'll put something together and share with you.
Meanwhile, here is a video I did manage to get of our performance of Walking On The Waves on Sunday afternoon: Walking On The Waves
As often happens, some of our players are hidden (or hiding!?) behind the music stands.
So, left to right - Marc Stevens, Ken Russell, Sandra Dawson, Shona Walace, Simon Jones, John McPherson, Dave Bright, Pauline Sutton, John McBoyle... and some random guy in a hat!
Well done, all of you. And thanks for all your hard work, it really paid off!
Doune Music Night - Saturday, 16th May
Just a reminder, our next performance is the Doune Music Night.
We sent a WhatsApp message out, asking who could attend, but that was just over a month ago, and I know that at least one person who said they could play cant' make it now.
I do need to know who will be performing, as we have to book tickets.
I think there will be about half a dozen of us. We could do with two or three more, so if you can come along, let us know.
Please respond the WhatsApp message when you get it, or let Pauline know, thanks.
We will be performing the same setlist as BraveUke.
This was a great event last year and I am looking forward to it.
The Music Night is a fund raiser for the Doune Primary Parent Council..
It is a good local showcase for the DUGs.
More details about timing etc. to follow.
Playlist
John Gallacher will be leading the group, and has put together this week's playlist.
You will be running through the Music Night setlist, followed by some of John's favourites.
Want to see some of your favourites played? Just give me a shout and I'll put you down for a future meeting. It is good to get a variety, and it makes it easier for me, so please, have a go!
