With the tables and chairs arranged to be sat at, and candles alight, the performers took the very front of the room as a stage.
Four, five, or six people took to this stage and performed the songs they had bought with them, among which were, The Nearness of you! Wonderful World! And September in the rain!
All were played in a manor befitting to the songs, tempo and volume were never a problem and everyone seemed to enjoy the night.
It had been said that this kind of jam session was a test to see how it would go. It was an idea of one of the members. As well as the players of the evening, we "thought" of people who didn't turn up. The emphasis firmly on what the co-op was really about!
Education!
And not performances!
Could it have been then, that the people with lesser experience and confidence didn't want to take part, and that the performance idea could have been used for another evening in the week and not the co-ops educational Tuesday night?
Next week we have Simon Robinson as our tutor so see you all then.
