Singing

Hello from the other siiiiiiide! 🎶 This month, Girl Band is organising an Adele-themed Jam session, at a studio near Dalston (exact address given once you have joined the Whatsapp group) The concept is simple: No-commitment jam sessions for the ladies of London, organised for you. All you need to do is turn up with your instrument. Find friends, potential bandmates, and have fun. **Here's how it works:** 👋🏻 Register your interest by hitting attend on this MeetUp event, and join our [Whatsapp Group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DlZIi2ui0zu8QC0L01RL2J) -Introduce yourself and specify the instrument you'd like to play. 🌈 We run on donations, so if you attend any events, please consider giving a small amount to [[buymeacoffee.com/](http://buymeacoffee.com/)]([https://mc.buymeacoffee.com/links/CyEbElChEGunBDUUJHHqcDFdjHHiezlKUDdZxxqxgCKnvfHFZnSwyAsPBHgJGIIAZZPKfaV/2876893?link=girlband](https://mc.buymeacoffee.com/links/CyEbElChEGunBDUUJHHqcDFdjHHiezlKUDdZxxqxgCKnvfHFZnSwyAsPBHgJGIIAZZPKfaV/2876893?link=girlband))\*\*[girlband ](https://mc.buymeacoffee.com/links/CyEbElChEGunBDUUJHHqcDFdjHHiezlKUDdZxxqxgCKnvfHFZnSwyAsPBHgJGIIAZZPKfaV/2876893?link=girlband)\*\*in order to keep us going. All donations go directly towards booking the studio. Only donate what you can, and there's no pressure to pay any more than £10. 🎟️ We'll create a set-list so you can start learning/practicing before we hang. 📍Location will be sent out once enough musicians are sourced (to ensure safety and privacy) but the rough location will be in Central-North London. You can stay for as long or as little as you want. **🎸 Who do we need?** -Any and all instruments! The weirder, the better. Multiple of the same instruments is all good. **💖 Girl Band** is a FLINTA (female, lesbian, intersex, non-binary, trans and asexual) group, so we do ask that you identify as such. No hate or discrimination is accepted. 🎵 Beginners, all ages, and those new to jamming are welcome and encouraged (but please make sure you can play the pieces by the time the jam session occurs). Rock up and rock out! Lana x

If you’re active, love a good social scene, and appreciate the great outdoors, join us with 30 single guests for a 7km loop around Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens’ Outer Circle. After all, connecting with potential partners really is a walk in the park when you’re doing something you love. We’ll meet at Speakers’ Corner, just two minutes from Marble Arch tube station and a short walk from Bond Street station, before setting off on a scenic route that takes in some of London’s most iconic green spaces and landmarks — including the Serpentine, Kensington Palace, and the beautifully designed Italian Gardens. We’ll pause regularly along the way, giving guests the chance to mingle, make introductions, and continue walking with new people. Midway through the route, we’ll stop for a coffee (or tea) break, complete with a homemade chocolate brownie — all included. This is a super-relaxed, wholesome morning walk and a great way to meet a fun group of like-minded people while getting your steps in. After the walk, you’ll be able to use the usual post-event matching and messaging via your *It’s a Date* dashboard. Or, if you’d prefer to keep things going in person, there are plenty of cosy pubs nearby that are perfect for extending your date with new connections.

Join me for a great presentation with wonderful slides which helps to show us how our thoughts and views shape our reality. We will be delving into neuroscience, psychology and the environmental factors which shape our reality.

Due to the weather this week we'll be meeting at Pirate Studios, Notting Hill. My genres are: rock, blues, folk, singer-songwriter but anything goes. For jamming, we'll pick a chord progression, something not too complicated and then we take turn to improvise melodies on top of it (both guitar solos but also vocalising). Intermediate level and above ideally but any level welcome but you should probably be able to play some chords (to get the most out of it). Other things we will do: 1. We can play songs - whoever wants to, not going to go round the circle forcing people to play. The songs can be either originals (your own songs) or known songs. 2. We can chat about music or other things 3. Have a drink - bring your fave drink (wine, beer, non-alcoholic) 4. Food goes too (bring your own) When we've had enough, we say goodbye and go home. People can leave early too if they've got other stuff to do or the whole thing is not their vibe (no hard feelings). The studio costs a bit to hire so contributions towards that are welcome!

Gentle people, It is my pleasure to invite you to Part II of Italian artists of the National Gallery, and an inebriated evening of socialisation at a nearby bar afterwards. I will be giving a guided tour of the National Gallery to the members of LGBT Culture Lovers group, throughout this year in multiple parts. **\*\*There's no need to have attended previous sessions as I always recap\*\*** ***In the second event of the series, we will be looking at the turn of the century and the early years of cinquecento (1500s).*** Included are **Mantegna, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael**, & many others. I will recap trecento and quattrocento with new artists and paintings. The tour will last around 60 minutes. **And here is the agenda:** * 2pm: (optional) meet at the café inside the National Gallery (Bar Giorgio -- it's right across the Sainsbury Wing entrance) for coffee and croissant and friendly chat * 2:45pm: Meet in the foyer of the National Gallery (Sainsbury Wing Entrance). We will wait for 15 minutes. * 3pm: The tour starts right on the dot. * 4pm-4:30pm: We will head to a bar nearby for socialising and drink the gift of Bacchus. If you are running late, we will in rooms 51-61. I also have included an **optional reading list** for those who might feel inspired by this series of talks and tours and wish to delve deeper into Italian art history and the artists I discuss in Part II. I hope to see you all for any part of this event.

**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** 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. Snacks to share are always welcome!

According to the New York Times, at a speed dating event, people like 2-3 out of 10 people they meet. Online daters only match with 1 in 100 or fewer of the profiles they study. This is the best way to meet new people, and it works! Just ask the thousands of people that have met at our events and had successful relationships and marriages. **WHAT DOES IT COST?** We put a lot of time and effort into creating the best singles events possible, so we collect a fee for our hard work. Our events are an excellent value at about $3 per introduction. Get your ticket for the best singles event in town. **NOTE FOR NEWCOMERS:** We post our events on various platforms. Our events often sell out, so expect plenty of fellow singles, regardless of the numbers you see here :) So what are you waiting for? Join us for some fun conversation with great new people... and maybe something more! Who will you meet? **GET TICKETS:** [https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup](https://www.pre-dating.com/columbus-speed-dating/?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=event_listing&utm_campaign=meetup) #singles #singlesevents #speeddating #love #relationships
