For those about to do it, good luck for Sunday in the Santa Fun Run!
It is also our last chance to do a final rehearsal for our performance as well.
As such we will go through the complete set list for Sunday in that order. Then I have come up with a load of songs that have run in them. As much as I would like "Keep on Running", "Run To You", "Run to the Hills", "Running Free", "Runaway" etc, we do not have the song sheets so I have had to be a bit more imaginative!
Switch On Set List:
Feliz Navidad
Jingle Bell Rock
Frosty the Snowman
Rudolph
White Christmas
Mele Kalikimaka
Winter's Tale
Walking in the Air
Rocking Around the Christmas Tree
We Wish You a Merry Christmas
Then we have the following
Running Songs:
Skipton Woods
Wagon Wheel
Creep
Fields of Gold
I'm Yours
Georgy Girl
Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer!
Half the World Away
Sail This Ship Alone
Any time left over will be pot luck!
Next week will be the first one in December, so I am going to suggest that we do nothing but Xmas songs. If there are any that need a final polish, we will look at them, but mainly a fun-strum. Then we can go back to a more non festive selection for the last two weeks of the year.
Remember that the Party is on the 18th! So, if you wish, come up with something to entertain! It does not have to include a Ukulele. It could be a Poem, a Joke, a dance number... Just no juggling chainsaws as I think the insurance will not cover that!
I would like to thank everyone for their patience during the recent few weeks. We have had a lot of rehearsal time. We are almost at the end of it and can go back to some more fun content.
With that being said, here is our list of current gigs:
