Apologies if you get this more than once, I won't send anything else unless you ask to be on the Have a Go mailing list. I know that for some of you it will be too far, or you'll be too busy. But someone you pass this on to might be interested.     Dancers, musicians, and callers are invited to a music and dance session in Chester. Beginners and experts welcome. We are calling it "Have A Go". So come and do what you already do, and have a go at something new. The idea is to play dance tunes, then dance to them. With anyone who wants to call choosing dances of any sort - English ceilidh style, Playford, American squares and contras, Welsh or Scottish... Whatever. Similar to the French session that happens on the first Monday of the month, but more varied. The first session will be Thursday 19th May from 8pm At Chester Deaf Centre Southview Road Chester Cheshire CH14JG If this becomes a regular Third Thursday event we will build up a repertoire of tunes and a tunebook that those who prefer to play from the dots can print out. Marilyn has a book of tunes for her Black Cat Band that I can email to you as an Adobe file. But I thought for the first meeting we might stick to the sort of tunes everyone plays in sessions. Then if callers tell me which tunes they want I can give you an idea of which you need to print out for which session. I don't intend to print out dozens of copies of all 48 pages. If anyone has a good tune to include in our repertoire, tell me. Or any other ideas. Please pass on the word to anyone who might be interested It would be helpful to know how many might be coming and whether you dance, play or call. If anyone has a good tune to include in our repertoire, tell me. Or any other ideas.   First night would be free, after that a suggested donation of £2 to cover the cost of the room etc.     Please pass this on, and let me know if you'd like to be kept informed. Cheers, Mo
