BILL OLSON SEZ:
      Notes: This dance was written May 25,1997, the night before the
Brattleboro dawn dance, in my room in the Latchis Hotel. At the time we thought
this was the last Memorial Day dawn dance. Scrod Pudding was playing the
graveyard shift. I wanted a dance for the very last dance in the morning that
was necessarily foolproof but fun, something like Steve Zakon-Anderson's
"Salmanella Evening". This is mostly borrowed from Steve's dance, which is
borrowed anyway! But, Citronella Morning, what better name since it was a late
Spring morning in northern New England!! As I remember we played "Late for the
Dance" in A and "Highlanders Farewell" in Am (a great set done by the String
Beings on their tape "Late for the Dance")  At 7 AM or whatever it was that
seemed to pretty well sum it all up!
