Dear R&O Musicians,

Here is some updated info about R&O XXX's April events.

ATTENDANCE AT NEFFA:

We need a finalized list for the New England Folk Festival as soon as possible, so please check the attached list and make sure your name is on it if you're coming.  Corrections should be sent to Janet at .  The list should contain only those who have responded that they will attend NEFFA.  Our big gig is the evening of Saturday, April 24th and we plan to rehearse that afternoon in one of the NEFFA rehearsal rooms.  When you arrive at NEFFA find Lenora Kandiner's craft booth, and she'll tell you where and when we will be rehearsing.  We will be playing in costume at NEFFA - they always look forward to our music and our costumes, so let's not disappoint them.  Please see http://www.neffa.org/ for festival details.

WARM-UP DANCE:

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to play at the Wednesday, April 21st dance at Suzanne Patterson at 8pm (please arrive at 7:30 to get set up).   Those who are attending NEFFA are encouraged to play on Wednesday night, as it serves us as a refresher and rehearsal.   RSVPs for the Wednesday night dance should be sent to Amy ( ). We will not wear any costumes that night.

TUNE LIST:

Please practice the following tunes.  The medleys we play at NEFFA will be chosen from this list.  If you lost your music,  there should be tunes online at http://harbormist.com/ro2009/ (username = bobcat).  Please remember not to share the log-in information with others.
