Next Time: Sat. 3/4, 11am-2pm, TowerLight (3601 Wooddale Ave., St. Louis Park)
In the basement theater. Masks in the building unless playing.
This week we had another good turnout: Sam (trumpet, trombone), John (trombone, piano), Steve H (soprano, piano), Raphael (bass), Carl (trombone), Jack K (trumpet, rhythm), Bill (vocals), Ari (trumpet).
Things got a bit up-dumped, and your scribe was not always careful about marking down where the songs were coming from.
Sam did not mess around to get us started, calling Dear Old Stockholm (I-xxx). Bill sang Come Rain or Come Shine, but from a handout to be in his key. John pulled out something a little brighter and more Latin with Wave (I-4xx). Bill took chance, opting for I've Got the World on a String (also by handout). Carl found So What (I-364) amusing, and we mostly made it through. Jack wanted to sing himself, calling for It Could Happen To You (II-xxx). Bill handed out another one, this time a version of Don't Get Around Much Anymore. Yours truly pulled out an original he had written a number of years ago, She Wore Black. Vocal time for Bill again, this time right out of Real Book I, All of Me. When your scribe was packing up, the group was just about to settle into Minority.
Here's hoping we see you next time!
