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!
