Dear Musicians,
The results of the pole on the day of rehearsal confirm that the most
convenient day of the week to rehearse is on Monday.
I also made a list of a few songs that we could start rehearsing based
on the results of the other pole.
For those present tomorrow (Monday, February 3rd), we will meet at the
Green Room of BIRA at 12H00.
(If you don't have an access to the BIRA building send me a message or
call me at: +32 468 36 52 46)
Cheers,
Alex
Dear musicians,
On Tuesday we had our first meeting and took some decisions regarding
future rehearsals.
Here are the important points we discussed.
1. Location: We have had issues with the place we had planned for
rehearsals (the room above the tennis-table room). So we agreed that for
the time being we would meet at BIRA in the Green Room
2. Day and Time: On Mondays during lunch time (12h00 to 13h00). The day
is not set in stone yet since a few of you were not able to come on
Tuesday and thus give their preference. Here is a chance for you to vote

3. The music we play: You can also suggest songs that you would like to
play here and vote for others choices:

Note: I couldn't find any poll online that allows participants to add
some new voting options so the link I am sharing here is the admin one.
Please don't change anything else than voting options.
We also decided to make a whatsapp group for the space pole band you can
join with this link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/K398U6DWiwk9HqQxlQ1Ge6

Dear musicians of the space pole,
A while ago, during the Early Career Day organized here at Uccle some of
you expressed your interest in playing music with colleagues from the
other institutes.
As the year has already started, it is time to plan a first meeting in
order to form what I am sure will be a great band (famous across all the
space pole at least :) ).
Here is a link for you to choose a suitable date:
https://framadate.org/OnG13niIx1ypYT6f
The idea of this first meeting will be to meet each other, discuss about
our musical preferences, ... and most important, find one or two days a
week when we know we can gather and play on a more regular basis.
The goal of this band is to have fun sharing our common passion, so if
you know some of your colleagues, who are not included in this mailing
list and who might be interested to join us, let me now and I will
include them.
Have a nice weekend,
Cheers,
Alexandre Winant
(PS: If you are in this list and you want to be removed from it also let
me know I will take care of it)
Dear all,
I'am writing you seeking the answer to one question: What do you think
about including members of the other institutes for our music rehearsals ?
Coming soon in October, there will be the Early Careers Day for all
three institutes. The idea of this event is for early-career staff of
the Space Pole people to meet, discuss about their research and share
their experience.
I was asked by the organizers of the event at BIRA if I could advertise
the BIRA-band during this gathering and open it to new members from
other institutes.
If most of you are agreeing to this, I will collect the names and e-mail
addresses of the participants that are interested in playing music with us.
Before I do so, I just wanted to run this question by you before.
Have a nice day,
Alexandre
