Performance at the Vi Retirement Community-Monday, March 10th (5:45-8:30pm)

Mar 102014

See you by 5:45pm at The Vi Retirement Community (2850 Classic Dr, Highlands Ranch 80126). Please wear your maroon/slacks band outfit (Black dress shoes, long dress socks, black belt & no visible undershirt). You will be parking in employee parking and coming around the building. We can unload at the main entrance, however. The performance runs from 7 until 8pm. A piano is provided, but we’ll need the drum kit, carpet, PA system, and bass amp. We will be done packing up around 8:30pm. With regard to parents who would like to attend – they will be directed to park in the back lot and will need to walk around the building. The Vi asks that they do not take chairs away from residents, and if they need to sit, only sit in the very back seats.

Please be sure all 11 selections are prepared and memorized for tonight’s performance.

TRANSCRIPTION ASSIGNMENT: On Sunday we’ll need to hear: “Bill Bailey” by Andrew; “Big Butter and Egg Man” by Jake W; “Royal Garden Blues” by Tom; Fish Vendor by Josh; “Saints” by Jake C; “The Mooche” by Adam; and “Blue Skies” by Ben.
