What Did You Miss This Week? (Week 427 #472)

Recording Rehearsal!!!

We had a great evening rehearsing for next week's recording session. People are sounding great and it's cool that we'll have a handful of people doing versions of our study song, Sittin' On Top of the World!

Next week is also the last night of the session, so be sure to register now for January.

Class Notes

  • RECORDING:  This session's recording date is next Monday, December 14.
