<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi-</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> I am resending this message
I sent to Lucas and Janet on April 3, in response to their two e-mails. I
should send it to the whole list, just to add another name in support of really
keeping that session slow. Best wishes to all,
Jean</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Dear Lucas and Janet,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> Thanks for bringing up the
problem of the slow session. Last time was especially bad, as some people
seemed to refuse to play slowly. I go to encourage the beginners, but I
also enjoy another chance to play, even if it's slow. And if we play slow
airs and waltzes "at speed", that would be good. I like Janet's suggestion
of ten faster tunes that we all know and will be played. That idea started
last month, when we decided to all learn jig set #1 and reel set #1. I
would not be able to make it at 12:30. 1:00 is even pushing it for me,
1:30 was better, but they say they won't go back to longer hours until the
summer. So thanks again, and lets make a concerted push to promote the
idea of the slow session. </FONT></DIV>

Let's make happy music for all, and Happy Easter to you,</FONT></DIV>
