“I'm not going to sing the one that she asked me for because, er... well I can't actually... I can't remember a lot of the words. But I'll tell you what, look, erm, if it's any consolation, the one I'm going to sing will have a lot of the same... notes.”

Flavour of the month - 2006/12/13 09:26 I haven't posted anything for a while - but still practicing the songs.

It's great to see sales of Jake's work doing so well and with recent press, TV and radio coverage and your Jakefest, there's a real rivaval going on.

I played at my local club last night - there's lots of interest and new people doing Jakes stuff ... so if you arrive late there's a chance someone else has already done your number!

Has the site had a lot more hits recently and are you finding the same increase in popularity of Jakes work in your area?

Cheers,

Alistair

Re:Flavour of the month - 2006/12/14 13:43 Hi, Alastair !

Great to hear you've joined our ranks of players performing Jake's songs ! You may or may not be aware, but every summer we hold a big celebration concert where Jake players of all abilities and ranges can come and do some numbers. Sounds to me as if you'd be an ideal candidate for the next JakeFest come baggsy-time ! Which ones do you do ? Eranu !

Re:Flavour of the month - 2006/12/14 22:12 I play: The Statues, Bantom Cock, Sisiter Josephine, Lah di dah, Only a gypsy, Widow of Brid, Grandad,To do with you, On again on again and The Blacksmith & The Toffee maker.

With most I need my book for prompts, but I mug up if I'm doing a support spot.

I am still after a recording of Our Dog - I'd love to learn it but I have forgotten the tune.

I'll keep my eyes open for your events.

Alistair

Malcy User Platinum Boarder	Re:Flavour of the month - 2006/12/15 15:35 Good man, Alistair ! Great to see a "new recruit" who's not shy of tackling the tricky bits. Certainly you've got a few there that only 3 or 4 other players do out of a potential pool of 20 or so... Should stand you in good stead at Baggsy Time ! Cheers - Malcy Eranu !

philreckless User Platinum Boarder	Re:Flavour of the month - 2006/12/18 21:27 For Alistair and anyone else who is interested - I have the melody (with chords) for Our Dog written out as dots on a stave. This can be sent as a graphics file (e.g. jpeg) or Sibelius file. Contact via my website which should appear at the end of this message. All the Best Phil www.philmcginity.co.uk
