Jenny has been busy sorting out the musicals workshop day, making sure there’s a delicious menu on the 16th.
Champagne supernova is on hold … in October there’s a concert at the pavilion on the 10th October… we will be backed by Jacks band and taking part in Rock for Riley. You can catch The Haze at Wyke Smugglers this Saturday, just incase you fancy that.
We warmed up. Ed appologised for the road closure. He and Jenny got caught in that themselves!
We began our songs with ONE OF US, beginning with a revision of the intro, harmonies included. Ed explained the three coin trick, when teaching the piano. It doesn’t sound fun to be honest, but it was a vain attempt to try and get us to sing ‘stubborn and misconceiving’ correctly. And it worked.
Digging into old songs we tackled BANNER MAN next. Energetic. Then it was time to vote to include this in the Easter concert. It’s staying.
I WILL FOLLOW HIM drifted into the hallway with plenty of dramatic hissing. Some of us joined in without words anyway. It got a yes vote.
LOVE LETTERS was next. That’s quite quick to sing. It was voted in, buy a cat’s whisker.
Back to this terms songs with RUN FOR HOME, and it got voted in as well as the ABBA song.
I love YOUNG AT HEART but it does sound a bit odd with Dorset accents. Just saying. It was voted in.
A quick sing through of AVE MARIA, said Ed as he slipped behind the piano. Although Dorch voted it out we said yes, so that was that.
ALL MY LOVE blared from the speakers. Stage left really wasn’t sure but it slipped through so that was nice.
Next, HYMN following a pondering about whether it was blasphemy or unblasphemy. It’s definitely interesting lyrics. We popped it in on the shelf.
Finally, gone 8.30pm we sang FRIDAY, I’M IN LOVE. Carol confided that she’s warming to it. Phew.
Good start back DFS, well done. Xxx
