This is the direct descendant of the "Fen and Filk" house sings at Glimmerglass house, and they are always a good time. :) It's a fun, inviting get-together where you will always get a turn to sing, recite a poem, or ...? (and you can pass if you want), and new people are welcome and encouraged. :) You can show up any time during the event, and leave at any time. Our schedule is to arrive at 1:00, get singing by 2:00, break for pizza around 5:00, and then sing till usually 8:00-ish. Often there is a musical jam that continues well after the 'end' of the event, so feel free to stick around if you're interested! It's a friendly, nonjudgmental place to start singing, playing, or reciting in front of people, and a fine spot to test out your new songs. We welcome instrumental musicians and spoken word performance as well. There is a kid-friendly play room next to the dining hall where we play, and kid-friendly play equipment outside if the weather is nice.
Please park at the side of Little Lake Drive, and not in the parking lot - there is very limited parking available for residents. It is OK to pull up to the Common House for unloading, and there is handicapped parking available next to the Common House.
Hosted by shadowriderhope and nubianamy.
Supported by qnvhrtz & peteralway.
[Note: I will not be attending this time around, as I will be off at Consonance in San Francisco... but nubianamy and peteralway will make sure you have a great time!]
Come and participate - song or word! Bring friends!
Bring a snack, a dish to share -- what food & drink we have is whatever we bring.
You can RSVP via the Facebook event, if you like.
If you can't make this one, but might be interested in future events, you can join the new Facebook group to get updates.
