From a session.org member, A1dan:
"Greetings, the Davis Kidd Booksellers session is currently active. The Bean Central is not active (in fact it is the same as the Davis Kidd... primarily a change in venue.)
I meant to add that the Davis Kidd session in February will not be at the Davis Kidd Bookstore, rather it will be at the Maxwell House hotel following the saturday Feis competitions."
Franko confirms that the Feb., 2003, Davis Kidd session will be at the Maxwell House Hotel. He asks that I post to let thesession.org members know to call for more info. before coming out to the session.
Time that we start is 7PM, not 8PM as it is was listed. I just hadn't updated the sessioneer entry in a while. directions and such are fine. If you travel through on some other day of the month, feel free to give a hollar, we might be able to scare up a session for ye!
Quick (short) list of some tunes, no particular order: Moving In Old Decency, Drowsy Maggie/Temperance Reel, Cliffs of Moher, Cooley's Reel, Swinging on a Gate, McMahon's Reel (Banshee), Soldier's Joy, Leaving of Liverpool, Girl I Left Behind Me, Rights of Man/Boys of BlueHill, Kid on the Mountain/Butterfly, Banish Misfortune, Cup of Tea, Trip to Sligo, Dennis Murphy's/ Sean Ryan's Polkas, Bill Sullivan's Polka, Craig's Pipes, Si Beg Si More, Fanny Power, Connachtman's Rambles, Harvest Home, da New-Rigged Ship, Kesh Jig/Morrison's Jig, Blarney Pilgrim/Swallowtail Jig, Over to Moors to Maggie, Star of the County Down (Am as a waltz, Em as a song), Tar Road to Sligo, Star of Munster, Maid Behind the Bar, Merrily Kiss the Quaker, Off She Goes, Miss Mcleod's Reel, Lark in the Morning, Musical Priest, Mason's Apron, The Old Favourite, Southwind, Nail That Catfish to a Tree (OK, so it isn't Irish, it is still fun!), Paddy's Green Shamrock Shores, Here's a Health to the Company, Dunmore Lasses, Anything for John Joe!, Rakish Paddy, Lilting Banshee, Kilavel Jig
Looking for a new venue...
We, and everyone else that met there have been booted out. Watch this spot to find where we move to! If you contact me 615 228-7001 I'll let you know.... I also hope to have a sign up in the Atrium on April 12th, directing people where to go next.
for 4/12/03: St. Augustine's Chapel,
regular 2nd Saturday session, temporarily here.
thinking of potlucking at 6PM, playing by 7PM...
200 24th Ave. South
on the Vanderbilt University campus,
Nashville, TN 37212
directions:
from downtown (or I40): take Broadway exit go south away from downtown. take the split to the right for "West End Ave." after a few blocks, take a LEFT onto 24th Ave. (Chili's and Tower Records are both on that corner!). After a few sorority houses, it will be a small "A" framed building on the Left. Parking is kinda poor, you can head back to West End and walk up.
