Meeting Friends

Last night I went to visit some of my friends whom I hadn't seen in over a year. 8 1/2 yrs ago, I started a singles club in Madison, Wi. which is where I went. We had a great time sharing some experiences that we had gone thru. There was music and dancing and the guy who puts on the music ask me to come up and sing a couple of songs, which I did. I hadn't sang in a long time but the songs came out ok. Had a few compliments. A great night to go out! It was cold outside but no snow. I think I will go back in a couple of weeks and hang with my friends for an evening. Maybe sing a tune or so.laugh

How many of you go and hang out with friends for an evening and have a few drinks? If you haven't tried it lately, treat yourself and do it!thumbs up

Jim Its funny you put this blog up today because today I had a visit from old friend I went to grade school with and lived in my neighborhood years ago. So we had a great visit and I truly enjoyed talking about our past and present. I had a nice time and wished I did more of that. thumbs up
Good blog GJ, so glad you had such a fun time with your friends. What kind of songs do you enjoy singing?It's always good to meet up with friends... I so enjoy it. Friendships are a great great blessing in our life lovely to talk about memories shared and catch up and then build more memories together.

Here's to good times with good friends!!! grin applause hug
Jo, you have to do it when the opportunity arises! I had been putting off going but decided sort of last minute. Glad I did. had a good time!thumbs up
Thanks Wallops! So very true! I sang My Way, Frank Sinatra. And Margaretaville, Jimmy Buffett. I love singing. They have music every Wed. nite. I was invited back to sing whenever I want!thumbs up

Great to here it!....laugh
You'll have to record yourself then we can all listen to you applause

Don't ask Angel to be your agent though as she charges extortionate amounts wow doh
Hi Jim
Friends are great. My friends are are all married and of long standing, most of them (and their wives) went to school with me. We do get together from time to time - not as often since I sold my house - and get merry. No singing though; none of us have vocal chords that are capable of producing melodious sounds.laugh
cheers wave
Can see your dilemma Ken, I have had the dreaded chest infection all over Christmas ... Its still lurking but I wanted to join in with all the fun things grin (think I made myself worse for pushing myself ... But worth it)
Hope you feel better soon and if you do go...enjoy!!!!! dancing
Hi everyone!! applause applause applause

Tomorrow's THE night!! smitten smitten smitten

Am gonna have a sumptuous dinner followed by Karaoke session with my girlfriends.

Only problem is......the last time I got invited to Karaoke with another bunch of friends, I never got invited again.... blues

I then found out the reason....I was hogging the mike the whole night.....grin
Mimi.
Awwww! hug
Karaoke can be lots of fun! I have been doing it for about 25 yrs. Won a few contests during that time. I have been singing since I was in grade school in the church choir. Lots of fun when you have a bunch of family and friends doing it!thumbs up

Mimi, I would like to hear you. But no hogging the mic!rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
I haven't seen my best male friend for close to a yr now. He lives in the next town but we r both too busy to meet up. We keep in contact via phone but I phoned him just now to meet up on the weekend some time and again no go. We r both in it which makes it very difficult to find time. It is realy bad if u can't even have time to meet up for a coffee with ur best friend.
Jim it's like a get together and sharing experiences. With singing and and drinking.

Don't forget to go home, though my friend, or someone will be looking for you? cheers
