Subject: Gun & Spitroast trad music class Wednesday 22nd February

REMINDER
The next Gun & Spitroast traditional music class is this Wednesday: 22nd February.

We'll likely play a couple of tunes from earlier classes to warm up, but the real work of the evening will be to talk about and play the tunes we'll be using for the Frittenden Old Fashioned Night Out dance on the 31st March. Rosie Davis, who will be calling on the night will be with us, and we can discuss which tunes of the tunes covered in the classes that we like.
