Berkeley Events... Coming Right Up
Another Bullwinkel Show
Event Management — San Francisco East Bay Area
We put on real Badenov events — mostly free street festivals, art & culture events, business socials, theme parties, picnics or whatever else sounds fun. We’ve got the scoop on the local scene, where to go and what to do — we're real Ms. Know-It-Alls...
BERKELEY MUSIC CIRCUS:
World Sing-Along
For the past month, neighbors have been singing together on Wednesdays at noon from windows and porches around the world. For a few moments each week, a little bit of joy fills the air. The Berkeley Music Circus was originally set up with a final performance of “Celebration” at the end of April. However, with COVID-19 still in play, we are holding off on that song for a while and have added a few more to get us through the end of June. If we have to stay home longer and need more tunes, we’ll post them online at AnotherBullwinkelShow.com. Meanwhile, keep your hearts and lungs open by singing. Be safe – sing with social distancing.
Here is the program. Words are online:
| Date | Click the title for lyrics |
| Wednesday, June 24 | CIRCLE GAME (Joni Mitchell) |
| Wednesday, July 1 | LOVE TRAIN (O’Jays) | Wednesday, July 8 | TEACH YOUR CHILDREN (Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young) |
| Wednesday, July 15 | UNDER AFRICAN SKIES (Paul Simon) |
| Wednesday, July 22 | HOW SWEET IT US (James Taylor) |
| Wednesday, July 29 | DANCING IN THE STREET (Martha Reeves & The Vandellas) |
You will have one week to learn the words or practice on an instrument. These are simple songs and easy for everyone to learn. This will give kids incentive to practice their violin or flute and lessen the boredom of being sequestered, just a bit. It may even put a smile on your face.
If you have the chutzpah, please act as the conductor, starting your neighborhood off at the same time and setting the tempo for the music. Or bring out some speakers and sing along. Take a photo or video and please link it to https://www.facebook.com/AnotherBullwinkelShow/ along with your location or neighborhood.
The Berkeley Music Circus was originally conceived by Dan Plonsey during the Berkeley Arts Festival many years ago. As the Chair of the Civic Arts Commission, I thought I might just drum up some civic arts. Thanks for playing! Feel free to spread this widely.
