Seeking kid musicians!

[kgradow1.livejournal.com]

Parts and Crafts + Second Line Social Aid and Pleasure Society have teamed up on a new project -- starting a Honk-Style marching band for kids!   This group is about making joyful noise with other people.  We're sticking with simple, danceable tunes; we're learning by ear; and we're learning together.  We welcome children, families, and anyone else that wants to be a part of a good groove.  We welcome experienced musicians as well as people who are new to their horn.  

At the moment, we are calling ourselves the Underage Marching Menace.   We don't have an official site yet, but we have a Tumblr page!   Take a listen to hear what we're about: http://kids-street-band.tumblr.com/

DETAILS: 
Where: The Clarendon Hill Church at 155 Powderhouse Blvd.  (map:http://g.co/maps/qejrb)
When: Sundays from 3-5PM  
Who: You, and anyone you know!
Mailing List: http://groups.google.com/group/parts_and_crafts_band

RSVPs aren't required, but we'd love to know if you plan come (either by email or phone: 617.575.9219)!   To answer some other questions...

• If you already have your own instrument, great!  Bring it with you!  If not, feel free to show up anyway to sing, stomp, crash a cymbal, or try some other instruments on for size.  If you're looking for a particular instrument, let us know!
• All instruments are welcome, as long as they can move!  As we are a parading group at heart, we want instruments that can march, parade, and move around outside--especially as the weather gets warmer!
• The band is facilitated by members of the Second Line Social Aid and Pleasure Society Brass Band <http://slsaps.org> along with some of the folks at Parts & Crafts <http://partsandcrafts.org>

All are welcome - no experience required.   Next rehearsal is this Sunday  (as in, almost today!) from 3-5 p.m.   Hope to see you there!
