Thanks everyone for not letting the slow sessions die. I've only come to a couple, but it's nice to know that they're still going on for the future so I can try again. I had a lot of fun even though I can't keep up with you guys (even at "slow"), but I'm not quittin' yet. The Buttery is perfect and luckily for me, very close.<br><br>Sharon<br><br><b><i>Jean Harrison <seajean@cruzio.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Please don't let the slow session die. My house is available after I get<br>back mid-September, probably before the third Sunday. I'm not saying it's<br>the best option, but it is an option. Several of you have been there and<br>know that things were OK.

welcomes)!<br>> You're invited to the 2nd Sunday of the month Session,<br>> 7pm - 9pm on<br>> July 13, Britannia Arms Pub, 8017 Soquel Dr., Aptos. This<br>> is a slow/<br>> moderate/intermediate-speed session.<br>><br>> Etiquette guidelines:<br>> 1) Session starts promptly.<br>> 2) Going around in a circle, everyone has a turn to choose<br>> a tune and<br>> the tempo. Tunes are generally played at moderate speed,<br>> but players<br>> are willing to slow down if needed.<br>> 3) A single tune is played 3 times. In a set, each tune is<br>> played twice.<br>> 4) Talking beyond short chats or helpful comments please<br>> carry on out<br>> of the circle or after the session.<br>> 5) This is a place of business. Please purchase something,<br>> if only a<br>> coke. Come early and have some of the pub's tasty<br>> food.<br>> 6) In general, sheet music is not used at sessions (other<br>> than the
3rd<br>> Sunday Slow Session). This is the session you can use to<br>> wean<br>> yourself. Here's a website with tips on playing by<br>> ear:<br>> http://www.slowplayers.org/SCTLS/learn.html<br>> Of course, use your tuneset book if needed.<br>><br>> Directions from Santa Cruz: South on Hwy 1, take State Park<br>> exit,<br>> turn left at light. At Soquel Dr., turn right. Go about a<br>> half mile.<br>> Go under a bridge. Pub's immediately on the left.<br>> Parking is best<br>> just past the pub on the left in general village parking.<br>><br>> *********************************************************************<br>> Please also note that, as discussed in previous messages,<br>> the third-<br>> Sunday slow session still needs to decide on a new location<br>> for the<br>> July 20 session. Maybe people can talk about this at the<br>> Britannia<br>> Arms session and come up with a plan, at least
for this<br>> month?<br>> --<br>> Tane' Tachyon = tachyon@tachyonlabs.com =<br>> http://www.tachyonlabs.com/<br>><br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Santa_Cruz_Celtic_Slow_Sessions mailing list<br>> http://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/santa_cruz_celtic_slow_sessions<br><br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Santa_Cruz_Celtic_Slow_Sessions mailing list<br>http://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/santa_cruz_celtic_slow_sessions<br><br><br>--<br>No virus found in this incoming message.<br>Checked by AVG.<br>Version: 7.5.524 / Virus Database: 270.4.7/1544 - Release Date: 7/10/08 7:37<br>AM<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Santa_Cruz_Celtic_Slow_Sessions mailing
