Don Weeda Live Music: 7/14 at Fermilab, 7/15 in Downers Grove

This Friday (July 15) Don Weeda plans to join us and provide live music for dancing at Argonne Folk Dancing at St. Paul's UCC in Downer's Grove, at our usual 8pm meeting.  He has a great repertoire of our favorite folk dances, and we always enjoy his annual visit.  In an unfortunate coincidence, a theater group that has booked the Fellowship Hall where we usually dance this week, so we will instead be located in the classroom at the far end of the hall.  They would prefer if we use the entrance closer to that end of the building.


Also received from Mady:
We’ve got a special treat of live music by our accordionist friend Don Weeda at Fermilab International folk dancing this week, Thursday, July 14. We’re meeting in the cool of Ramsey Auditorium’s stage in the Fermilab high-rise Wilson Hall, 7:30 – 10 p.m.  Don comes up from Texas once a year to visit his mom, and we are so pleased to have him play for dancing, since his repertoire is vast, and his arrangements are always innovative!
Here's a youtube video of Don performing Jove Malaj Mome with the 1001 Nights Orchestra:

Live accordion music for dancing tonight (Fri July 16)

Don Weeda plans to join us tonight, to play live accordion music for dancing.  We'll be in the classroom at the far end of the hall this week, because the church has a performance going on in the Fellowship Hall - we'll have the exterior door open at that end of the building, please enter that way.  Otherwise, the usual details apply.
 
Don has a great repertoire of music for all sorts of international folk dancing, we always enjoy it when he plays for us.
