"Bile" Revisited

Just added some more tab from last month's meeting. Click on "Club Music", above, and then scroll down to where it reads "ADDED 5/26/14" and you will find a link to "Boil Them Cabbage", strummed and picked, in three different picking patterns.

June, 2014 Meeting Announcement

Our next scheduled monthly meeting in on June 14, 2014.

Our monthly meetings are held the second Saturday afternoon of the month at the Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship, 1207 Ellsworth St. from 1:30-3:30, and occasionally we extend for snacks and social time. We are on the second floor, there is an elevator and the building is handicap accessible. All players, both beginners and experienced, are welcome to join in. The first half of the meeting is spent reviewing recently learned tunes, then learning a new tune. The second half of the meeting is "Song Circle", so please come with some tunes in mind. There is a list of our practiced songs further on this site.

In June we will be reviewing Mississippi Sawyer, Farther Along and Yesterday's Treasures. We will also add to our Boil Them Cabbage repertoire the Arpeggios. Our new tune will be the Dave Haas version of Cluck Old Hen.  If you have Dave's Fun Fiddle Tunes, bring it along.  (This tune uses a capo so bring one and we will have an extra if you need to try one.)

May 2014 Meeting Report

May brought a smaller group for our get together, 4 in all, but we had plenty of strummin time. After our warm up with the familiar tunes Gillian introduced "Yesterday's Treasures" by Sam Stone, a very pretty tune. After getting that under our fingers we moved playing some arpeggios for a familiar tune "Boil that Cabbage". We then revisited "Harrison Town" and many other club songs. It was a very enjoyable time even though we were so few. Hope everyone enjoyed their May celebration and will be back with us in June.
