Band 101 October meeting

We're back at Paul Henry's Art Gallery! I love holding Band 101 meetings at my house, but my living room can seem awfully tiny. It's good to be back.

We celebrated Sherry Kubiak's birthday at the gallery last night. Happy Birthday, Sherry!



Song 1: Rhiannon by Stevie Nicks. We did this one in White Ripple Community Band earlier in the week and couldn't resist doing it again. It's such a lovely song.

Song 2: The Monster Mash by the late great Bobby "Boris" Pickett. Check out this nifty interview with Pickett where he reminisces how Monster Mash came to be. Bobby Pickett was a good liberal all his life, and toward the end of his days recorded The Climate Mash out of his concern for global warming and climate change.

 

 

Song 3: Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon. This is the song to play if you want to go from D to C to G but don't want to do Sweet Home Alabama. (And his hair was perfect.)

 



 

 

 

One of the nice things about Band 101 is that you get to play the set you just learned the very next night at Paul Henry's Art Gallery. Here are some photos from practice and from last night's open mic. A big thank you to everyone who came out to play and to listen. <3

 

 

(I was having trouble with the saw last night. Operator error, most definitely.)

 

We will do it again on November 9th! All are welcome to attend.
