PFS Virtual Song Circle No. CCLII

Every Saturday Night, rain or shine, Christmas or Kwanzaa, Chanukah or Ramadan, elections, selections, resurrections, infections... a group of folks meets on Zoom for the Virtual Song Circle, or VSC. The virtual doors open at 6:00 PM Pacific Time for schmoozing and tuning, and singing starts at 6:30. There's a group of regulars, and frequent newbies drop in, and sometimes people who have dropped out drop back in. It doesn't make any difference: all people, all songs, are welcome. You can stay for five minutes or five hours. Very relaxed.
