Coming GFMC Events...

Here's a few for your diary...

Sunday Oct 11th 2009 – Special Club Night starting at 8:00pm – Irish Murphy’s – ‘Folk Sports’ – Hosted by Mark Wardle. Come along and join in the musical mayhem. Teams of musicians and singers join together to present tunes and songs with arrangements improvised on the spot. This night – a repeat of last year’s club night - promises to produce some great improvised music (and possibly some not so great). Play music with others whom you may not usually collaborate with. Get your musical mettle tested. Get along and join in.

Sunday Nov 8th 2009 – Special Club Night starting at 8:00pm – Irish Murphy’s – ‘Singalong Songs’ – Hosted by Paula Grembka. Club members present three singalong songs each. If you can sing – you can join in. If you want to perform – contact Paula (paulagb@ncable.net.au) and put your name on the list. Get along and join in – bring some friends and make a crowd!
