Torrington Baggsy List ! - 2004/05/27 10:11
Hail and Well-Met and Cross-Posted to Topica !
Yes, folks, it's that Baggsy List Time again and once more I have been afforded the humbling honour of trying to make sense of fifteen people all wanting to sing "Sister Josephine". To say nothing of five people wanting to sing "On Again ! On Again !" or just the two trying to sing "I Stayed Off Work Today"... 
So here we go then. This is a call for all players of all abilities to join in celebration of the songs of Jake Thackray by performing his songs at Torrington on the Saturday night. At the TramFest last year there was a small run-over, and several impromptu spotting people had to be disappointed on the night, so this Fest I'll start off by asking for
Up to THREE definite songs per performer/group, along with
Up to TWO spare ones in case time allows or Swapping starts to occur, which it almost inevitably will !
Every attempt will be made to allow everyone to do the songs they baggsy, as usual, but as many performers have the same shortlist of 5 classic Jake songs, there will be several songs which are in demand for many performers. With this in mind...
Can I ask everyone to try and do at least ONE song you haven't done at the last two JakeFests ? This should result in a more varied performance setlist, allow those of us less fluent with Jake's material to have a stab at the more famous numbers, and who knows, make us all better players (or at least make us practice !)
Send your baggsies as soon as possible to
malcolm (dot) jeffrey (at) virgin (dot) net
and wait for the fun to start !
Cheers -
