I found out about it today while we were at a community dance where we were playing (for the fun of it) and it was pretty fun - I transcribed a number of the songs that they regularly do so I had an idea of how to play them.
Tomorrow we're playing at a barn dance in Nathrop - usually another good time. Dennis built the barn with dances in mind so it has the second floor devoted to them. It is a large open room (a bit reflective for the sound) where the band takes out a corner and hope they don't get run over by the dancers.
These dances are of the contra variety. With a band playing and a caller showing them what to do.
This is going to be a busy weekend (and into the week)! With the dance tonight, one tomorrow night, taking Killer Kelly (our dog and a great alliteration) to the vet, we might go to the apple fest here in BV, Sunday a trek to GJ for the interview, and then the interview with HRRMC hopefully early in the week.
