Saratoga Pan-Celtic Session's Friend Space (Top 39)
Oh no, I just found out my schmoozy dinner goes really late tonight. Do you guys want to come and play at the Saratoga Hilton? I'm happy to see there's another Parting Glass session next Wednesday, wouldn't miss that for the world. So sorry I can't make it tonight!
Hi there, Thanks for the invite. We'll be up in Utica and Mass in September, maybe we'll stop in and sit in on a session. Have a great week, Margie, Tina & Amy
John/Vonnie, Yes, I got the message. My Board meeting starts at 5 p.m. and it is sure to last at least an hour (if I'm lucky). I'll see you next Wednesday at the PG. kbr
thanks for letting me know. It will be too early for me. I can't make it to saratoga any earlier than 7pm after work. This week I am all about the dancing...wish me luck at the Central New York Feis! I'll let you know how it goes :) Have a nice time, and I will see you soon!
Hi there. We just uploaded a sneak preview video from the new CD thats coming out in May. Check it out at http://ie. youtube. com/watch?v=8kFSmrJokn8 or on our myspace videos, And let us know what you think of it.
My thought of the month: I think that, in addition to learning new tunes, I should maybe practice the ones I've already learned? (Wacky, perhaps, but, I think it's just crazy enough to work...)
I'm sorry to say I have to miss another session. Hope you have a great time. I will be at the Vasen concert at Old Songs this thursday, should be a good one!
Thanks for the add, folks! Any of you get down to Old Songs? I'm there every year -- who knows, I may have already jammed with some of you and not known it.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! Where can I find you all tonight in Saratoga? Is it the Elks club? I have my whistle and dance shoes with me ready to go! :)
