Other highlights (not to say the only ones) included the father, son and son performances by Mark, Jordan and Dave Franklin; the sweet and gorgeous round sung by 2nd Grader Khalila and her family; to say nothing of the amazing spontaneous Happy Birthday choral tribute to Mr. Goudreau on his 20th.
Special thanks to Christopher Griffin for his donation of a magic carpet to the Sofa stage.
There are regularly so many fine and versatile musicians present, that we're going to try an experiment tonight called the Yellow Page, where we will post the names and skills of people who would be willing to collaborate or back you up if you want harmony, percussion, lead instrument, kazoo, or other musical support. Consider what you might want, and if you bring a lead sheet with you, you might just find a way to get exactly what you want, or at least what you need.
Hope you can join us tonight. The end of the night song, a favorite Dylan song of Fongster 100's is, "Everything is Broken" another blues in E7.
On Saturday, July 2nd the Yellow Sofa will be holding its first annual DylanPalooza All-Bob Dylan song open mic. All Dylan, no repeats, don't bring guitar, bass, keyboard or amps, there will be ones set up there already. To play, choose up to two songs, and let us know here at yellowsofa@gmail.com what they are. We'll post them on this blog so you can see what's already been taken, and we'll let you know that we got your request.
Live music in Northampton can always use your support, enlist a friend to come with you tonight and tell them to frequent the Sofa so we can help keep it stuffed.
