Once more unto the breech...


« on: March 30, 2006, 01:05:02 PM »

It's not that far away really Grin

So, reviving a topic from 2005, after-hours music... I still didn't see any (or hear any) last year. Did everyone suddenly get too grown-up for carousing Huh

Is anyone planning to indulge this year, what sort of jam session would members like to hear/take part in, and how do you get invited to them?

Thanks

Dunno Mix, I have to admit I was too plastered after hours last year every night to indulge in singalongs.  Shame really.  I'm gonna have to try at least one night not to get toooooo pissed.

I'll be bringing a couple of whistles and my ability to play the first 2 bars of Rosemary's Sister on the guitar.  Don't know if we'll have room for the actual guitar though...

I think you basically wander around the campsites, following your ears like, and see what's occuring

Last year we had a jam session on Friday night and we learnt how to play a straw.
Beethoven´s Ninth on a straw was fab.  Grin

Not so much music but after finding an abandoned plastic fork from the Oggie Stall we held our very own Cropredy awards ceremony, with appropriate snatches of songs being 'sung'.

They were called the 'Fork Awards', and anybody who has heard my accent will surely see the joke in this. Grin Grin Grin Grin

A few strangers did pop in to see what was happening and stayed, so I think it is a case of just finding an amenable group of loonies.

Certainly the last two years any organised after hours activities seem to have not quite happened due to ......erm disorientation. when in doubt head for the Black Pig (Under whatever flag of convenience it's sailing under this particular year) that's my motto  Cheesy
