Three Chord Thursday 2021: Wishin’ and Hopin’

Posted on January 5, 2021 by Anne Ku

Welcome to the first song session of the new year on 14th January 2021 at 3 pm Eastern Time! Three Chord Thursday themes for 2021 begins with your wishes, hopes, dreams, goals, plans, wants, and desires. Wear something NEW!

We meet every Thursday promptly at 3 pm ET, starting with a warm-up, followed by our sunglasses ritual, line-up, and up to ten songs performed by volunteers who request to perform beforehand. We record and edit our song sessions to review, learn, remember, and share with the community.

FREE Workshop: finding and editing song sheets to get them jam ready! 1/7/2021 at 3 pm ET. Join the new public group on Facebook. Watch the video recording.

We set out the new year with resolutions, resolving to get fit, declutter, and tick off the buck list. What dreams and hopes do you have?

As usual, you’re welcome to enter Zoom at any time. Performers are requested to join early to check on sound and light. If this is your first time, join us early to introduce yourself and chit chat with us. Promptly at 3 pm ET, everyone is muted and the recording starts for the Warm-Up. All song sheets are shared on screen. You can switch off your video if you don’t want to be seen or recorded. After each performance, do UNMUTE yourself to show appreciation and support.
