I play Oktoberfest at some facilities with Hans during the fall. We do mostly German stuff, but folks still want Country and familiar tunes. Slip (and I thru Slip) know a guy that makes the rounds of various care facilities with his guitar. Steve plays lots of old tunes and standards. He constantly amazes the staff when Alzheimer patients sing entire songs and request more. Music is therapy.

Basilking ~

I'd love to see a copy of your Christmas compilation (preferably in Word format) . . . and I love the idea of having "just lyrics" to pass around in addition to the lyrics + chords for the musicians. Would you mind sending the file(s) to me at dr-cookie (at) msn.com?

Thanks!
Don

Susy & I play at a couple of places, and get requests for "the songs we used to dance to."

This reminds me of that complaint written into song:

"Just play me some words I can dance to, or a melody that rhymes"

From "Banana Republics"

...written by the late great Steve Goodman (also covered by Jimmy Buffet).

Make sure there's a hyphen between dr and cookie; that omission sometimes messes up sending e-mail to Don.
