Subject: Gun and Spitroast traditional music class on 25th May


The next Gun & Spitroast traditional music class is on
Wednesday the 25th May.

This week we're planning to look at two tunes, both jigs, chosen by class members: A Hundred Pipers and Dribbles of Brandy.

We'll play each one steadily and slowly, only moving on to the next one when it seems right to do so.

We meet at the Gun & Spitroast pub at Horsmonden at
8pm on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month. The classes are free and all are welcome.
