Pick-Up Band
​
Upcoming Pick-Up Band dates can be found on the quarterly dance calendar.
​​
PCD's Pick-Up Band (PUB) is open to anyone playing any instrument at any level!
​
We provide a limited number of sets of music and mics (but only to those who want to use one!), and a warm welcome to all. PUB has been a musician's training ground for many years and an inspiration for all as both newer and experienced musicians play side-by-side.
​
If you'd like to receive email announcements about upcoming PUB gigs (which include a link to download the music planned for that night), you can register here.  For further info, email Larry Koplik.

BANDLEADER RESOURCES:
​
Here are some guidelines for bandleaders (PDF) when preparing tunelists for the pick-up band.   [NOTE: Here is the RTF file which was the source of the PDF].
 
All the old tunelists (as of Dec. 2017) are available in the pickup band's Google drive area.  Many tunes are online in the tune repository (bandleaders should request a logon there to see the hidden tunes) .  Also, there are a few scanned tunes online (these may be removed if added to the tune repository instead) .
​
The previous pickup-band website has been archived; to view it, download the .zip file, open the folder, and click on the index.html file.
