Open mics have been ongoing, through online collaborations. I've participated in several and it has been extremely fun... I have enjoyed working on the strumming and singing and laying down tracks without the performance anxiety of being on stage.
The virtual jams have helped me to at least pick up and strum my ukulele a couple of times a month, and they are also an opportunity to learn more about music of many genres.
Last night the Monday Faithfull presented a rousing version of a sea shanty by the Wellermans and drummer Paul Baillie brought us some music from the Latin Playboys: Midnight Moonlight, Old and In the Way.
Always something new for the playlist!
On a more serious note, Facebook is pulling down the Watch Party service in mid-April. As this Covid 'party' isn't over yet, hopefully there will be a new platform we can make use of to connect. The Watch parties have been a real sanity-saver and something to look forward to!
