10-Sep-09 MIND Active

Only played at this home once before... in 2007... so we were looking forward to getting back there. It was a very warm day so guess where they put us to play? Yes, you guessed it, the conservatory! It was so warm we had to take our gilets off! This was the first time we had played out acoustically with Val's new guitar 'Chalise' and it sounded great.

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)
  • When (jiva)
  • Yorkshire Romance (C J Rowe)

Then:

  • Different Dreams (jiva)
  • Some Way Home (jiva)
  • Maginot Waltz (Ralph McTell)
  • Dream On (jiva)
  • One More Song (jiva)
We had some good chat with the residents and we could see their feet and hands tapping along in time to our music. Great stuff.
