Club Night - 5th February 2026

Club Night always comes around quickly. Last week we were having a bit of a fun strum as well as thinking about new songs for the club and perhaps a new song or two for gigging with. They would take some work, but could also be well worth the effort in the end.

A couple that came from Jim's book were "Proud Mary" and "Moondance". I think that they both have real potential for us to learn.

I realise that some people are putting forward songs and I would urge that we all contribute where we can. With that in mind, here are some that we have played well in the past, but maybe not so recently.

• The Ballad of Barry and Freda (Let's Do It)

• Ain't Misbehaving

• Breakfast at Tiffany's

• Moon River

• Chasing Cars

• Daydream

• Don't Stop

• Fields of Gold

• Galway Girl

• Good Luck Charm

• Good Riddance

• The Green Door

• Here Comes the Sun

• It's Raining Men

• Jolene

• Just Cant Get Enough

• Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard

• Oh Boy

• Sail This Ship Alone

• The Letter

• This Land is Your Land (local)

• Wild Mountain Thyme

• You Got It.

Now that is too many songs for one night, but I have come up with a mix of some that we could do at a gig, or are just plain fun to play.

Ideally next week we can have a list from others of songs that we could think about?

Either way we will have a gig coming in the next few weeks so if there is a list for that and songs on that list that need a spruce up or practice then please let me know.
