Posted Saturday, September 8, 2012
The next Sydney Bluegrass & Old-Time Music Get-together will be held at:
Annandale Neighbourhood Centre
79 Johnston St, Annandale.
The night begins at 6.30pm with the 'Safety In Numbers' workshop where people at all levels of ability learn a few bluegrass songs together and perform them at the beginning of the concert at 7.45pm. The songs include instrumental backing and breaks, but you don't have to play an instrument to be part of the SINners group.
At 7.45pm an open mic bluegrass & old-time music concert gets underway with totally unplugged all-acoustic music and it continues till around 11.30pm. Jamming starts early and ends late.
The whole night takes place through the efforts of dedicated volunteers, including the performers. Special free supper to celebrate the end of the year and Christmas. Any finger food donations to the supper table are very welcome!
The monthly get-togethers recommence on Saturday 2nd March 2013.
Entry cost is $5 for members of the Bluegrass & Traditional Country Music Society of Australia (BTCMSA) and concessions, $7 others. Kids under 18 are free. All are welcome!
