Hey Rockers, Time to break out your acoustic instruments and bring some good vibes to 2026. I'll be hosting an acoustic jam at my place, so just bring your instruments, songbooks, and any food/libations you're willing to share with the group. No need to publish a songlist. Just be willing to share your talents with the group. We'll have some snacks during and after the jam, so feel free to stick around for awhile. Keep Rockin! Eric

Hello piano players: Our next meeting will be held on Sunday, March 29, 2026 from 1 – 5 pm at my house, 5612 Cromwell Drive, Bethesda, MD 20816. I will open the doors at 12:30 if you would like to warm up on the piano. I would like to start at 1:00 pm so please show up a few minutes early. Also, reach out to a friend and work up a duet – they are fun and always welcome. In the past we have had duets with two pianos, with singers, and with the clarinet, and they bring a nice variety of music to our meetings. We will have snacks, finger food, light drinks, beer and wine, but your donations of food and drink are always welcome. Parking is on the street near my house. I hope to see you on March 29th. All the best, Paul Connor

My favorite Country Western Hanks - Hank Penny, a King of Western Swing; Hank Snow, “_I’ve Been Everywhere_”; and Hank Williams, America’s original punk rocker; all left their stamp on Country Western music. These three and a few other Hanks will be celebrated this Sunday by Karen Collins and the Backroads Band alongside a posse of guest artists including Willie Barry of the RockASonics. My 3 Hanks playlist on Spotify - [3 Hanks ](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4Hlk571KCbWSy9FIvBYiDK?si=pASSZeYuQZy6xzKxHxCvCg&pi=cAap48GnRUull) . The music starts at 6 but come early to get a seat, as this show is likely to sell out. The cover for this show is $10. I will most likely be at bar in my honky tonk 🤠 best. Hank Dietles Tavern is MoCo’s roadhouse and possessor of the first post prohibition alcohol license.

This is an absolute beginner Salsa group class. It is specifically designed for those with no prior experience in Salsa and participations does not require having a partner. Every Other Sunday: $25 per person. [Click Here to Sign Up](https://crowndancestudio.com/) 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm Beginner Bachata.

Our next event will be at Tatte Bakery at City Center. There is space to draw inside or out and there are beautiful cherry blossom decorations in the area for inspiration.

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
