A week from Sunday both the family dance and evening dance will be to open bands, and we'd love for you to come play with us!
The family dance is 5:30-6:30. It's pretty low stakes: no one is mic'd, it's on the floor with the dancers, and we'll play easy tunes. We'll play "Sasha", "La Bastringue", and a bunch of repertoire tunes like "Road to Boston", "Mairi's Wedding", and "Coleman's March". Rick Kaufman will be leading the music. It's followed by a potluck, at 6:40.
The evening dance is 7:30-10:30, and we'll be playing from the BIDA Open Band Tune List:
https://www.bidadance.org/open-band-tune-list Casey Murray and Molly Tucker will be leading the music. We'll be micing the musicians, so if you have a clip-on or something else you normally use, please bring it along! If you don't have a mic and would like to be amplified, though, we do also have a bunch of mics on stands. The evening dance is mask-required when you're not on the stage.
