This is a slow<BR>session. Bain sult as! (enjoy)<BR><BR>Etiquette guidelines:<BR>1) Going around in a circle, everyone has a turn to choose a tune and<BR> the tempo.<BR>2) Try to maintain the tempo set by the person who chose the tune.<BR>
Conversely, if you choose a tune and tempo and find that the tempo<BR> gets sped up too much while playing, don't be shy about asking that<BR> it be immediately played again sticking to the slower tempo -- it's<BR> good practice for everyone.<BR>3) A single tune is played 3 times. In a set, each tune is played<BR> twice.<BR>4) If needed, bring your music stand and tuneset book. Here's a<BR> website with tips on playing by ear:<BR> http://www.slowplayers.org/SCTLS/learn.html<BR>5) Copies of the tuneset books generally used at slow session are<BR> sold for $15, and you can now download and print the 1006-tune<BR> "King Street Sessions Tunebook" for free at<BR> http://www.pacholo.com/mike/<BR> -- many thanks to Michael Long for putting the book together and<BR> now putting it online as well!<BR><BR>Some months we've played out on The Buttery's patio -- you can see<BR>two photos of this in
Nick's blog entry<BR>http://quantumtantra.blogspot.com/2008/07/santa-cruz-session-relocates.html<BR>-- and other months we've been playing upstairs in an office, which<BR>you can see in these two photos<BR>http://flickr.com/photos/tachyon/2956709828/<BR>http://flickr.com/photos/tachyon/2955870083/<BR>Basically, if you don't see anyone on the patio, go up the stairs on<BR>the left outside wall of the Buttery, and you'll find us in a room<BR>down the hall on the left.<BR>-- Tane' Tachyon = <A href="mailto:tachyon@tachyonlabs.com" ymailto="mailto:tachyon@tachyonlabs.com">tachyon@tachyonlabs.com</A> = 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></DIV></DIV></div></body></html>
