Unusual Connections

This week I did something I have been meaning to do for a long time. A friend had told me that there was a jazz/band music night held in Greenock on a Tuesday. I spent the day with my friend - perhaps more of that later - and then we finished the day by going along to the band night-he is a faithfull attender because he loves music and used to be a member of the band.

The session runs from 8pm until about 10pm in the Argyll and Sutherland pub in Greenocks Bruce Street. Its free and attended by folks who play music, sing and dance because they love it. Its a simple night -no airs and graces. I could see that some of the folks taking the floor knew their footwork, having learned it at the height of the big band era.

So if you love music and big bands go along to the Argyll and Sutherland in Greenock in Bruce Street and you will get a warm welcome.

Lessons for life-some of the best things in life are free, friends, listening to people making music, people keep doing the things they love and sometimes you find things in unusual places and usually through folks that you know.
