Angeline, You Baker

Add another mando to the list! Still trying to figure out how the instrument check works, but I’ll make it happen :cheers :wink:

EeeKK! So not only is the song now haunting my every waking and sleeping moment, but ever since I saw that commercial, there’s been the added anxiety of “FLOP!”.
Eff it. If there are 4 of us playing the song, we’ll own it.
If there are 40 of us playing, that will be awesome and we will own it, all of us :slight_smile:
I’m going to be there.
Still waiting on some more info on the workshop schedule at the park to determine our starting time, but there has been mention on the facebook invitation of ‘crashing’ the end of the instrument building workshop on Sat. morning. (Deep Breath… an audience!!!)

I will post a very special “Angeline You Baker” informational paper plate at both Will Call and at the Town Park central bathrooms. If in doubt, look there.

Also, anyone who wants to meet up for a somewhat-less-spectacular-but-still-very-cool practice sesh, here are some ideas:
Town Park citizens, 6/14 at the homebrew fest. 1 PM.
Everyone:
Wed afternoon, 4 PM.
&/or Friday at 12 noon. To disband before the Strigdusters hit the stage at 1.
Bike corrals at Will Call.

How fun it will be to meet all of you! In less that 2 weeks!

I am laughing so hard right now :lol :lol it’s all so sounds so organized in a lose sort of way :lol :lol. I love it and you are crackin me up. I will try hard to watch the time and hook up :lol

Is that fest time or regular time :lol :lol :cheers

OK, fellow flashers… Im looking for some input.

Should we do this thang at 10 AM, finishing just in time For Bobby, Michael, Rick to begin their instrument building workshop,

Or should we be a little braver and ‘Crash’ the end of the workshop, around 11:30? That could be great – I’ll raise my bow to ask a question… and we’re off (assuming they call on me…hehe)

I want to do whatever the majority feels will work best… so let us know!

Also, I’m thinking 5x thru is too little. Lets just blow it up & see how long it goes… Or Sara Watkins shuts us up with a bitchin solo :slight_smile:

I would vote for 1130- then those of us who have "line duties"could at least watch

Well since these are the fine men that helped me build my Mandolin I say we crash em at 11:30. Is that for the practice or the real deal?

Was that 2xa

2xa :huh :lol :lol :lol :lol I am laughing my head off today. Must be a fest state of mind. So I have got this down the way Crrooked still plays it, but now I have forgotten all the other songs I used to know :lol :lol :lol :lol

OH MAN. CAN I BE DISMISSED :lol :lol just kidding… although I do need to check how this goes down fer real. It must be 5:00 SOMEWHERE! :cheers

LOOK at this… This is the coolest thing… Next year, perhaps we should have a “Packing for Telluride” version…

Repeat song 5 times Correct?

after the workshop… We can enlist Bobby and Michael to help us out… They have control of the PA at that point.

:peace

My mistake vocals come in at the top of B

The overwhelming majority wants to crash the end of the workshop :slight_smile: Hippie, any help you might lend to enlisting Bobby & Michael (are you out there…ere…ere…ere?) in doing a gentle little lead in to the song… perhaps in response to a particular, predetermined question from the audience, for example? That would be the coolest.

11:30 AM (ish) Sat. morning is the Official Time to participate in the Flash Mob at Elks Park! We will hopefully have some guidance from the guys onstage. Otherwise, we (I) will follow the momentum of the workshop. For example, if there is a hearty Q & A happening at exactly 11:30, then we might delay up to 7 minutes or so to let that happen. Be there at 11:30
I’m counting on God to tell me when the moment is right… heh… no, really… and also, heh…

So… this is no lie… I had a dream last night that I ran my ass off to make it to our flashmob (9:30 start time in my dream!!!) and left my fiddle behind in Town Park. (The show went on!) Harrowing, I tell you. :frowning:

If you’d like, meet me around Will Call at 10 AM for a warm up, and we’ll walk over together, enjoy the workshop, then do it to it.
If you’re confident that you can jump into the song when you hear it,we will see you there!

Whoop!

I’m here - - - Find me in Run a Muck during the pre fest, all will be well.
I’m still looking for some folks who can video this thing.

:peace

Hippie ask Dave H. He has some video equipment I believe, but not sure. I will try to make it but I am NOT gonna miss Emmitt-Nershi.

Not on account of the flash mob, you wont!! We’ll be finished & glowing bright by 11:50… in fact, if all goes right, we’ll all just float back onto our tarps via the beer tent by 12:27! :cheers

One more shameless plug before I sign off to meet you in the real world! Well, in Telluride. :flower

[b]Sat., June 18th 11:30 AM
Elks Park, Telluride
D-D-D-G
D-D-D-AD

Jump in and play your heart out anytime after the first A part.

Pre-performance meet-ups will take place in
Town Park: Tues. 6/15 @ 2pm at the homebrew tasting party

Will Call: Sat. 6/18 at 10AM,
we’ll meet up, warm up, and make our way to Elks Park together.

A warning to our vocal crew: The verses & chorus are going to run right into eachother on our version of the song, unlike our inspiration Crooked Still (ie, no musical breaks). In the spirit of keeping it simple for all.

:cheers :flower :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :flower :cheers

See you all soon! Know that I already love so many of you for making this ‘REAL’!!!
Before Saturday, you can find me in Town Park – my name’s Erin :flower

Anywhere in particular at Town Park on Tuesday??? Hope we can get into town in time for the practice round - fiddle and mandolin - this will be so much fun!!! :thumbsup

I can’t open the schedule on my phone but I think the home brew tasting is at noon.
