New Year
Hello and welcome to 2012. I forgot to update the blog for the first meeting of 2012 but that doesn't mean we've gone and knocked it all on the head. On the contrary, we intend to bigger and stronger than we've ever been before. We have lots of plans that include...
Are You Hangin’ Up Your Stocking on the Wall?
This is a very simple, but timely, reminder that we'll all be getting together at the The Prince of Wales to give Christmas a good celebrating. We rehearsed almost all of the songs in the Christmas Book at the last meeting. Some songs worked better than others, some...
It’s Christmas
We take Christmas very seriously. We will be demonstrating this on Thursday when we have the first run through of the Christmas Songbook. We've got just about every Christmas song we can think of in there and we estimate it is 43% more festive than last years book. We...
November
After the heady heights of Spookelele at the last meeting we're back to the normal songbooks for this meeting. That isn't a reason to be sad, no, the normal songbooks are great and they're full to bursting with songs that we know. Next month will be Christmas songs...
Spookelele
It's Halloween, whooooo. As a special Halloween treat, this Thursday (3rd November) will be the first Spookelele. We have a new song book of creepy songs (songs with a tenuous link to the occult). As quite a few of these are completely new I recommend printing it out...
Bohemian Like Us
We have to say a big thanks to all of the people that came to support us last Sunday at the Bohemian Jukebox. We were very surprised to see so many of you but really appreciated it. I don't know if it was obvious but were all a bit nervous as this was our first...
Bohemian Jukebox
I've done a rubbish job of keeping the site up to date recently, sorry. As an excuse most of the information that I'd usually have put up here has been going on the Facebook group which now works more effectively than it did before. I do need to let you know that...
Gurdan Thomas Collective
It's been quite an amazingly fun packed Summer for us this year. We made our live debut at the Moseley Festival, we've found a new home at The Prince of Wales, we've bumped up songbook two until it's about to burst and this week we got to record in a proper studio....
Everything You Know is Wrong
We've recently spent a bit of time looking at both the songbooks. As a result we have got rid of most of the errors with Songbook 1, this means changing the keys of some songs and adding bits to other ones. I can't stress enough that if you already have a copy of...
New Home
Unfortunately we have been forced to find a new home because of some mix ups with bookings. Fortunately we will now be living at The Prince of Wales. The Prince had very kindly stepped in to help us last week and are keen to host us on an ongoing basis. Other than the...
