Hi all, We had our monthly planning meeting here in Rochester NY, and were thinking of ways to maintain a connection to our dancers during this hiatus. A thought we had was to try and keep people in the habit of thinking of Contra every Thursday between 7:30 and 10:30, by finding bands who are doingwatch parties at that time. We would use our social capital to email our members to check our website for a passthru link to the events.The dancers would be able to "click thru" to the watch party and donate (some of?) the money they would have spent on the dance, to listen to the band play some contra tunes,via the Tip Jar. patreon, or venmo, whatever is on the watch party page. Does anyone know of a central location for these watch parties, so we can connect with performers who are already picking our time slot, orscheduling with them to plan future events? It would be a great way to get people to hear bands that I would not really be able to book for our small local Thurday night contra.Might be fun to connect with other groups that dance on Thursday nights, too. Any variations on these ideas would be greatly appreciated as well. Stay well, and keep dancing. Bob Fabinski
