Spooktacular!

ree

It is nearly Halloween, so it is spooky week.

We will have a load of songs with a seasonal theme. So, moons, ghosts, monsters, harvest etc.


But what about our recent gig for the beer festival? It went really well. Thank you so much to all who came and sang and played. Special thanks to our videographers too!

We also need to start looking at some of the Christmas songs. So here is the list of all the songs that are up for inclusion across all the gigs.


Christmas Songs:

We will take 10 songs from the first section. This is for the Switch On.

  • Step into Christmas

  • Feliz Navidad

  • Jingle Bell Rock

  • Frosty the Snowman

  • Rudolph

  • Let It Snow

  • White Christmas

  • Mele Kalikimaka

  • Winter's Tale

  • Walking in the Air

  • Rocking Around the Christmas Tree

  • Walking In a Winter Wonderland

  • We Wish You a Merry Christmas

These are further songs for the next two gigs.

  • Blue Christmas

  • Holly and the Ivy

  • Christmas Medley

  • Sweet Bells

  • Twelve Days of Yorkshire Christmas

  • Calypso Carol

  • Stop the Cavalry


Now, I am not sure that "Step Into Christmas" will be concert ready this year, but if enough people want to learn it, we can certainly give it a try. Then perhaps it can be included in gigs for next year.

Most of the songs, I think we can do pretty well already, so we shouldn't have to totally flood the evenings with these songs. The best thing is for those coming to the gigs to give them a try so that we can get them gig ready quicker.
