Valentine’s Day gets all the love (appropriately, perhaps), but February also brings us Family Day. Send in your favourite songs about family or from famous musical families.

There were lots of great suggestions at the last circle, but please send an email or leave a note in the Facebook group so they don’t get missed.

It’s cold, but it’s a dry cold. We can’t fight it, so we may as well embrace the sub-zero temperatures.

Freeze-Frame, Cold as Ice, Colder Than You … what other icy cold songs are out there?

And, because Christmas is around the corner, we’ll dive into our holiday favourites after the break.

It’s September. Kids are heading back to school, summer vacations are over, and we’re going back to the shop.

For this month’s theme, send me you favourite “work songs”. For example: “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad”, “Making It Work” and “Take This Job and Shove It”.

It’s Canada Day! Or the day after, at any rate. Send in your favourite Canadian songs, whether they are by Canadians or about this great country.

Don’t forget! This month we’re taking another trip to Malty National Brewing Company.

The critics may roll their eyes, but every time you hear it, you just have to crank the radio and sing along.

You’re among friends. Share your favourite “guilty pleasures” with the group.

We did the Fab Four a couple of months ago, so let’s honour the recent passing of Peter Tork by celebrating the music of the Pre-Fab Four.

Send in your favourite songs from Peter, Davy, Micky and Michael.

Holy cow! Half a decade of strumming and singing!

If we were a child, we’d be starting school. If we were a cheese, we’d be one of those fancy ones in the special deli cooler.

I’m not preparing any new music, but you can! We’ll start the evening with an open mic, play a few of our favourites and we’ll finish the night across the street at Bushwakkers.

There’s no theme for March. Go ahead and suggest your whatever you’d like!

Happy strumming!

Someone asked for love songs. Someone else asked for Beatles songs. Why not both?! Send in your favourite from the Fab Four and/or one that makes your heart go pitter-patter.

Don’t forget! April 2 is our 5th anniversary circle and we will have our traditional open mic. Anyone who wants to take a solo or perform as a group is invited to share a favourite song.

Also, dues for the year are now, well, due. It’s only $10 and helps cover our costs such as renting space at Malty National.

Speaking of which, thanks again to our friends at Malty National for hosting January’s circle. We had a really big crowd and I hope to see you all at Sawchyn Guitars in February!

Due to the power outage that took out most of Regina and the surrounding area, we have to cancel tonight’s ukulele circle. We will reschedule for next week.

Next circle: Tuesday, December 11
7–9 PM
Sawchyn Guitars, 2132 Dewdney Avenue, Regina, Sask.

I hope to see you all next week. For those who can’t make it, I wish the best of the season to you and yours.

Mele Kalikimaka!
