Cafe Announcements 📣 Recording Thread - Request for Host

[Jeanette]

Hello All

Would anybody like to volunteer to host a recording thread in Dec Jan or Feb?

December doesn't have to be a Christmas Tune but might be nice.🙂

You don't have to post your own version and help can be provided with backing track and dots.

Please help keep these threads alive.

Hopefully 🤞 🤞 🤞

Hi Jeannette,

I'm a volunteer for December. I already have a favourite Carol in mind.

Thank goodness no ! Oooooh the pain. I can’t un-see, un-hear this…top billing of the day.
That solo during the Duck Shuffle sounds like Red Prysock ?

Close. It’s actually Red Price:

Yes please. I’ve already chosen the song if that will help get a jump on it.

Hi All

After I don't know how many years service to the café recording threads @nigeld is taking a well earned retirement from preparing dots and backing tracks. I am sure you will all join @Pete Thomas and me in saying a huge thank you for his efforts over the years. Thank you Nigel you have been an absolute star.

Without someone to provide the dots and backing tracks we would struggle to keep the threads going as I know many hosts don't have the necessary programmes and/or knowledge to produce them.

Fortunately I have found three willing volunteers to step in and help. Thank you to @rhysonsax @sax panther and @mrblackbat for answering my plea 😃

If you can produce your own when hosting that's great if you can also volunteer to help other members to lighten the load please let me know.

Jx
