The Sybaritic String Band First Saturday Series
In addition to the dances we play for other folks, The Sybs have their
own dance series. Every 1st Saturday from Sept. to June, we host a dance
in collaboration with the Rogue
Folk Club, at the St James
Community Square in Vancouver, BC, at the corner of Trutch and 10th
Ave, in Kitsilano. Dances start at 8:00 PM sharp, with
a 20 minute break around 9:30 and end at 11:00. The caller
will often conduct a brief session for newcomers starting at 7:45 to introduce
them to some of the more common moves used throughout the night. Admission
is $12 CDN with discounts for various underwaged and
underprivileged folks. First time "newbie Sybarites" with a
special coupon are welcomed with free admission. Dancers can pick up these
coupons for their friends by asking for them at the door. For half-priced
admission, bring a plate of home-baked goodies to share. Musicians are
also welcome to sit-in at the 1st Saturday dances. Dance, play some music,
chat with your friends. Just come and enjoy yourself!! For a memorable
evening with The Sybs, come to one of our performances listed below.
