The Folksong SIG will be meeting via Zoom during the COVID-19 shutdown. The default meeting dates will be the second and fourth Sundays of the month from 1:00-3:00 PM. It's very informal and includes guests. It's run as a Zoomenanny, a hootenanny on Zoom. We go around a virtual circle, taking turns. During your turn, you can sing, recite, play, request a song, or just listen. If you choose to sing, I'm willing to accompany your song on keyboard or guitar. If you wish to participate, please email Alan Stillson at astillson@sbcglobal.net for details. |
