Hello wonderful YUkers (and interested newbs!),
We are going to meet again at the bandstand in Darling Gardens in Clifton Hill this week. Bring a chair or something to prop on in case we spill out of the bandstand (it seems to have a capacity of 10 or so), and a music stand. The forecast is for a cloudy day and about 18 C by 6pm with a light SW breeze and diddly chance of showers by then. As the sun lowers it can become a bit fresh, so bring a warm top or light jumper to slip into. However, it’s a glorious place to play so please do come along and join us.
A few folk tend to end up at a local pub for a meal afterwards. 🙂
You can visit the MUSIC page to highlight our current repertoire. Download the set onto a device or print them out and pop them in a folder. The playlist varies a little week by week but it is nice to build our skills with a slowly shifting core of songs. There’s a zip file of the current core pieces.
This week we might have a go at making a quick video of ‘Under The Milky Way’ that we can submit to December’s ‘Virtual KLUB MUK’. It’s in the set sheets on the MUSIC page. I aim to add NEW sheets that help you learn harmonies for intro and choruses. However I’ll also bring along hard copies. We’ll work over them on Tuesday. 🙂
If you’re a beginner, remember that EVERYONE, absolutely everyone in the group has been where you are. You’ll find sympathy, support and just need to be a bit ‘umble & patient with yourself while you figure out the tunes, unfamiliar chords or progressions. See the latest post on the YARRA YUkers Facebook page for some tips on practice and learning. 🙂 You’ll get there!
See you Tuesday evening. 🙂
Session $10.
