I didn't put the keys down for these tunes. If you need me to, I can find those and send another email.

During the break, I'm hoping to get Steve Babula and Lois Day to sit with me out on the floor and we'll play Cori Mclennon on mandolins and flutes. I would like however many of you want to to join us on the floor for that waltz. We won't be miked or anything, just acoustic.

Then we can do Bonnie at Morn as the last waltz.

(Revised) Tune List for July 2008 Gig

I found my little notebook! Here is the list that we came up with at Janice's.

I am still working on finding the music for some of these tunes. Bear with me. This is not in any particular order, nor is it a set list, per se, as these tunes are not paired yet:

Yellow Rose of Texas
Battle Cry of Freedom
Johnny Comes Marching Home
Yankee Doodle Dandy
The Girl I Left Behind Me
Garry Owen
Bonnie Blue Flag
Soldiers Joy
Arkansas Traveler
Angeline the Baker
Golden Slippers
Polly Wally Doodle
Over the Waterfall
Irish Washerwoman
Eighth of January

Waltzes: Home on the Range
Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms

Polkas: Frere Jaquez

Please help with any additional titles that should be added to this list and/or sheet music that I can add to our site.

Believe Me

Hi, everyone! I just got on the blog, which is a considerable step for me considering that I am so hesitant about computer-related activities (or any other technology that is post-1940). I have the music to "Believe Me," if anyone needs it. I can send it by scanning it into the computer as a PDF and e-mailing it. Any takers?

---Gabrielle (Gavrili)

*'Gavrili' is the Greek nickname version of 'Gabrielle' that some Greek friends of mine used to call me sometimes.

New Music on Blog

Hey all! I have added a couple of new songs if anyone is interested in learning them.

Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms
Jump at the Sun
Out on the Ocean (Janis suggests that we put this with Road instead of the dreaded Kesh)

Not trying to overwhelm you, Joe...
