:smileybounce:Happy Second Birthday to the Seasons:music::cheers:
I just read a post by chrimess (Christian, who sired this good thing) saying this season marks the completion of the second year of the Seasons.
That means that next week it will begin its THIRD YEAR.
I have been here since season 39 and have only not done an entry when I was hosting.
I believe Silly Dave and TheOnlyUkeThatMatters are now the only seasonistas to have a perfect participation record.
I would love to see a big roll up of ‘old’ and new seasonistas this week to celebrate TWO YEARS of the Seasons!
And if you have never posted before please come and join the fun.
So -
Throw your hat into the ring.
Hat songs.
Songs with head wear in the title = 2 entries in the hat.
Songs substantially about a hat/hats = 2 entries in the hat.
Songs by a band with a hat in their name = 2 entries in the hat.
Just a passing mention of a hat = 1 entry in the hat.
No, these don’t accumulate so you’ll either get 1 or 2 entries in the hat.
If you do the same song as someone else that’s OK but you will only get ONE entry in the hat.
Only one official “Hat” entry please but…
Bonus Songs – Things worn other than hats.
As many bonus songs as you like about other forms of attire – shirts, belts, shoes, etc, but NOT hats please. No prize for the bonus songs just the fun of sharing some music.
If you can’t find a HAT song TWO bonus songs about other attire will still get your name in the hat.
The ‘draw from the hat’ prize for official entries will be a brand new black wool felt Homburg hat from eBay.
Hats include cap, beret, beanie, Stetson, Akubra, derby, bowler, fedora, sombrero, visor, boater, busby, deerstalker, fez, glengarry, karakul, kepi, kippah, yarmulke, kofia, non la, pakol, songkok, tam o’shanter, trilby, helmet, top hat, mitre, bonnet, crown, panama, homburg, shtreimel, toque, chullo, chupalla, slouch hat, barretina, hennin, caubeen, bicorne, tricorne, cloche, etc.
But NOT veils, scarves, ribbons, etc – these would be OK for bonus songs but not for the hat list.
Please state that the song is for this season somewhere.
And NEW ukulele recordings for this season only please.
Multi-tracking is fine if that’s your thing.
Please don't post your entry on this tread until 12:01 am Sunday Hawaii time. And the season will end at Midnight Sunday night Hawaii time (16th Feb I think).
For the record – I have conceded that SillyDave has a more complete hat collection than mine – he has a fez, a boater and some impressive sombreros. I am also down a well travelled Akubra Bronco which Barbablanca now wears occasionally because I traded it for a couple of (treasured) caganers.
And – You can leave your hat on.
Also - I’d really love it if you added a song to the Pete Seeger Appreciation thread on the Links and Videos board if you haven’t already done so and you’ve got the time.
I’ve had the hat idea going for a while but this came so close to being the Pete Seeger season.
