Hey up dear Swingaleles, not that the Springstrum is over, and the wreckage cleared away, it is time to relax and pull ourselves together. So, for Tuesday night's music please bring along Knockout Songs Book 1, and we will have a soothing, pressure-free, strum-along session. Maybe we can pull members' names out of a hat for them to lead a song. Or would that be too much pressure? We'll see.See More

Hey up dear Swingaleles, for Tuesday's music let us have a last go at our Springstrum set, and please bring Knockout book 1 just in case we need to fill in some time.I will bring along volunteer sheets for each volunteer so that we all know what we have to do, and when.I am very grateful to all who help at our popular festival. It is you who make it great on the day. At each performance area there will be a plastic envelope for the MCs with the volunteer list(so they know who is taking over after them), a list of the biographies of the performers(to aid the introductions), and a LAST SONG sign to hold up near the end of a performance(about 7 minutes to go) so that the performers, and the audience, know they have to finish. Do not let anyone go over time.It would be good if the Swingalele members support our groups, who are:- The Groovaleles, Ukaleidascope, Bon Voyage, The Joy Boys and Swingalettes, and Gerry with a Pacemaker. Also Neville's Connie Girls.Dave Lane and Ray Cortese are…See More

The pressure is really for “SpringStrum with Unkle Cyril declaring the books are closed. It demonstrates how popular our festival is. Don’t forget to check your wardrobe for Hawaiian shirts you’ve grown out of, and any item you might like to sell at our marketplace. This week could you bring the same as last week, Neil Diamond and the Rock and Roll music. Harmonicaleles will practice in our designated room at 6,15 pm.

The days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter. We must be heading towards “SpringStrum”. Have you looked in your wardrobe for any Hawaiian shirts you’ve grown out of, or any musical paraphernalia you want to sell or donate. If you have, contact any committee member. Harmonicaleles, as there is a committee meeting, there is no official blues practice. Could you bring the Rock and Roll music we’ve been practicing, and the Neil Diamond music for some…
