26-Jun-09 MIND Active

First visit to this home this year... we're due to play there again in December. It has such a a friendly atmosphere and we're always made to feel welcome by the residents and staff. They make a great cup of coffee! One resident commented how our songs are so nice and have lovely, easy to remember choruses!

As usual we played two 30-minute spots with a short break for a gargle and tuning of the guitars. We sang:
  • Love At The Five & Dime (Nanci Griffith)
  • Two Old Friends (Chris Simpson)
  • Back Home To You (Allan Taylor)
  • Passin' Thru (Randy Scruggs and Johnny Cash)
  • Sonny (Ron Hynes)

Then:

  • Dream On (jiva)
  • Maginot Waltz (Ralph McTell)
  • When (jiva)
  • Different Dreams (jiva)
  • One More Song (jiva)
There was great interaction with the the residents with our song introductions and some good chat afterwards before we bade everyone farewell with promises of our return.
