PLEASE NOTE: Next Wednesday (March 21) we will meet at the Gallery at 6 pm as discussed last week.  The performance at the Lodge will be postponed until April.

We met at 6 pm to practice for the ALC concert. Lynn, Linda, Judy, Louise, Barry, Verna, June (welcome back) and Lana practiced Ukulele Lady and Harvest Moon. Those strums on HM are sounding better all the time.

At 7pm we were delighted to see Tom and Lori and congratulate them on their upcoming performances at the Winnipeg Folk Festival.  We offered to accompany them on our ukes, but Tom thought they couldn't afford us.

We played Side by Side (a great song for the Lodge-- or ALC-- we decided it would be our encore), Saskatoon Moon, (another encore possibility- lol), You Belong to Me, Walk Away, Worried Man Blues, This Land is Your Land, 500 Miles, Darlin' Corey, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, Hard Times, Down on the Corner, Wagon Wheel, Cotton Fields, Rox in the Box, Sound of Silence, Working Man, Song for a Winter's Night, When Irish Eyes are Smiling, Grandpa, Fifty Miles of elbow Room, Just Because, Red Wing and our signature set ending song.

Three hours-- and Lynn wasn't ready to quit yet.  We agreed it was a great evening.
