Glastonbury music jam flashmob
Event Date: Thu June 23 2011
Glastonbury Elbow Singalong Flashmob!
Time: Thursday 23 June 2011, Sunset (~9.15pm)
Place: Glastonbury Stone circle
Start indicator: Violin starts from on one of the stones (tbc)
This year at Glastonbury Festival we want to put on a mass jam session, with as many musicians, buskers, people who know 3 chords and bring a guitar, and singers of all shapes, sizes and ability as we can find to gather round the Stone circle and play a rousing rendition of:
Elbow - One day like this.
All abilities welcome to join in; spread the word!
Those who are bringing an instrument, please download/memorise this version of the song:

(note it is played with a capo on the first fret - this is how we will play it, and please, be in tune!)
Singers, please download/memorize the lyrics here:
(Note that the “Stumbling over what to say” line in the 3rd verse is sung immediately after the previous line without pause!)
It’s a cool, simple, rousing song, and Elbow will be playing at the festival this year, so let’s play and sing our little hearts out!
P.S: If you print out the music/lyrics on paper, please ensure you take the paper away with you or put it in a bin afterwards. Thanks and see you there!
Ian
