Bring colour and life back to Mondays

What happenend in 1966?

No, not the Battle of Hastings ... or winning the Worldcup ... but the Mamas and Papas first sang ... Every other day of the week is fine, yeah, but whenever Monday comes, you can find me crying all of the time ... Not a sentiment I share although a cracking song to sing. Infact a number of songs feature Monday, often as a day of melancholy. For example, Rainy Days and Mondays (1971) from the Carpenters, I Don't Like Mondays (1979) from the Boomtown Rats, and Manic Monday (1986) from the Bangles. So it was a relief when one band called themselves The Happy Mondays.

Here at Forever Young Sing for Fun we celebrate bringing colour and life to Mondays [ see website http://singforfun.yolasite.com/ ]. You are invited to come along and find out how the regulars start the week with a flourish. St Sidwell’s School, York Road is the venue. Two hours of fun £3:50 pay-on-the-door. From 7-9pm most Mondays you will discover a singing group that is not a choir, does not rehearse or give public performances, sings 30 songs each session with brilliant backing tracks and just sings for fun. Now in its eighth year, this unique Exeter experience has been described as cheaper than therapy and more fun. Email for details mailto:for.everyoung@hotmail.co.uk Hope to hear you soon
