Renaissance is the theme of our dance this month (need help)
15 years ago

Next up is...
Well, bit of good news, the theme of this year's dance, that is coming up on the 3rd of June is Renaissance. Well, Gail's older sister Elizabeth is going to be so pleased, since she had been pestering the school to do this theme since she has been going to many different Fairs and doing so many research for a long time ever since before she started going to Fairs so she had wanted one done at our school. (By the way, every one or about two months our school will do a dance, and we can vote on the theme)
Think it sounds nice to me too, do not think Gail will be pleased since she hates wearing those pretty dresses, garbs, whatever you call them.
My friends and I have been asked to do the preparations, so far, some of us are having slight trouble. Maybe we are not, but Elizabeth keeps nagging at us to do Renaissance style and not 'castles, moats and dragons' sort of style...thing, well, you get the picture, I can not really see the difference...but oh well....I am not much of a person for history, lol.
This is what we have been assigned to do:
Me- The dresses...garbs...whatever...
Marine- The food.
Katheryn- The setting.
Elizabeth- Supervising us and nagging her mouth off at us...lol, not really, she is also teaching the dance moves, lol.
Sarah- The music
Gail- Doing the activities for the people who do not want to dance.
Laura (Gail's sweeter twin) - Getting the...plants? What? Do not know what is the plants about...oh well.
My problems? I have not clue what to do about the clothing...dresses...garbs...whatever you call them -scratches head- I am good with making other clothing but this style has me stumped. I do not need anything too detailed, just need some ideas.
And Sarah can not decide on any good Renaissance music since she does not listen to it. May need some help here too. -waves hands-
Basically, we are sucking at this, lol.

as for music, since im gageing most young kids would have no want to hear to harp and all the "boring" Classical and period music that you might want to look up bands like "The musical blades" The corsairs" "Belles of Bedlam" "Bedlam bards" (Pisstt you might get any of them to play live with enough money) Poxy boggards, Hey Nunny nunny, and the Drunken damsels
Try going for a traven theme instead of stuffy royalty, have a open bar, (obvisely replaceing booze with sodas and the like)
Oh, my friend Sarah is wondering if you could link her directly to some songs, she says she is too lazy to be bothered going through and she does not know which songs are good, lol.
Yeah, some of my friends and I are up for the tavern idea, though Elizabeth says it may cause too much inconveniance, lol.
