Even though we’ve seen a little more rain than usual the past few months, an Austin summer is still pretty dry, and the lakes are dipping lower and lower. So how about another classic Creedence Clearwater number that will express our hope for what we need most around here? “Have You Ever Seen the Rain?” is a classic from 1970. (Bob says that the original recording below is in the same key we’ll be performing, so strum along.)

As always, our meeting will be on the second Thursday evening of August, which means we’ll be meeting from 7 – 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 8, at the Memorial United Methodist Church, at 6100 Berkman Dr., Austin. If you’d like to perform a song you’ve been working on, please have it ready. During our Open Non-mic section, there’s no friendlier audience than our group. See you then!
