I have a vision....

It's on Saturday morning... when we're all still lively enough to pull off something outstanding.  Its something simple...  'Angeline the Baker' --everyone who reads this has all winter to learn & polish their very best Angeline/a.  It will begin with a strategically placed, brave fiddler or two,  progressively add guitar, mado, voice =everything= What'cha got?  ** hundreds of bluegrass fans, spontaniously erupting into song.**  We might even woo Sammy  out to play our tune! EEK!

Anyone been in a flash mob?  Organized one? 
Does anyone want to have fun with this vision with me?!?  Input encouraged!
 Cheers

Very cool idea!  I guess I'll be hauling some sort of stringed instrument down to Telluride.  Or a glockenspiel.

Are you really sure about that? Maybe we should just give you a camera instead.

Don't know if I've ever been in a flash mob, but I've experienced some very large clusterplucks.  Could be good for a laugh, though.

You are so adorable Debbie Flower

A flash mob is a determined time and place where lots of folks gather where we all breakout into a song or dance alltogether at the same time in the crowd.
 It is VERY COOL to watch and even cooler to join in.
All together at the same time same place, like a spontanious eruption.

Trick is how  to make it NOT sound messy. But I'm in how bout you D? LOL

I am VERY new to the fiddle, but I found this link on YouTube.

I might try to learn it for the Flash Mob.
