DECEMBER Meetup - I'm a Material guy. COME OUT AND PLAY!!!
Details
The songbook for this month will be linked here when ready.
Back at A LEGNA once again, please do the following 3 things to express our gratitude:
- Say hi to your waitstaff and MARCO (the chef)!
- Patronize their establishment! (I.e., order food and drinks.)
- Over-tip!
I know as ukulele players we tend toward the ethereal (think angels on clouds in robes playing ukulele - that whole thing about harps and lyres is a myth). But for this month we're going to admit that we're MATERIAL girls and guys.
Take note, this is a "Side B" to last month's theme, where we celebrated the Periodic Table of Elements; this month is for all of us who paid no attention in Chemistry and picked substances not there! (Look below for the kinds of materials we're talking about.)
We'll follow our usual agenda with a play-along to our new "MATERIAL Songbook" (linked above) preceded and followed by a round-robin style jam. Bring a song to play for us or lead us in playing with you, your choice. We promise to be a generous and encouraging audience. (Bonus points for following the theme, but as always we'll enjoy your songs, whatever you bring.)
