Don't know why I never mentioned this... but we had a fab time on Saturday night at the Bellshill Salvation Army. It was our Harvest celebration and we had a social evening on the Saturday night.
We had a barbeque and runners who went to local fast food places for food... I provided the music and games.
Do you know how hard it is to build a setlist to appeal to youngsters, teenagers, hipster 30-somethings, all the way up to folk in their eighties? Tricky... but I think I did it... Here's some of the folk I had in my set:
Thomas Newman / Ulrich Schnauss / Altan / Bellshill SA Band / Sammy Davis Jr. / Maria & The Children / Federico Aubelle / Stevie Wonder / Hillsong + delirious? / Muki / Keith Green / athlete / Bob Marley & The Wailers / Eumir Deodato / 4hero
Lisa McClendon / Jazzanova / Electric Light Orchestra / Blockhead / Bebel Gilberto / Wookie / Kylie Minogue / The Source Featuring Candi Stanton / Mary Mary
Curtis Mayfield
Pretty ecelectic mix...
I then played for a ceilidh - usual stuff: Gay Gordons / Dashing White Sargents / Military Two Step / Swedish Masquerade / Strip the Willow etc. Everyone got up and got involved...
I interspersed the dances with games for the kids... I also showed a couple of Doug Horley's action songs - I think he is great and very talented - the kids loved him (although the teenies were too cool to get involved)...
I was a great night but I think the chicken I had from the barbie didn't agree with me... it was that or the chow mein I had... Anyway, something never agreed with me - hence my sore tum...
