I don't know if they still do it or not; but, some Elks Lodges used to have an 11:00 Toast to members who had died. At a dance, everything stops at 11:00pm, the band plays Auld Lang Syne softly, and the names are read.

We always played it in the key of F.

I’m playing it in F here. I like working in the key of F on E9 tuning. Fret 1 to fret 13 just feels like a comfortable area of fretboard to play in.

I think F, Bb, and Eb chords sound really nice on the E9 tuning.

Yes, I have done that and played it on steel at lodges over the years.. Not sure if its still done at all of them , but I imagine some still do.

The gigs at Elks, Eagles, Moose, and other social club are long gone in my area. We played a lot of them in the 70s and 80s, and I remember the 11:00 pm toast. They would ring a bell, as I remember. Those gigs were always packed and a dinner was served. But those gigs are gone now. So are most of the VFW and AmLegion gigs. Today we have brewery gigs… earlier hours, shorter hours, more family oriented.

I remember the 11pm toast too. I wonder if it was related somehow to the “11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month” end of The Great War.

Very likely. Or as Dr. Spock would say... that is entirely Logical.

Ah yes, I remember that ceremonial prayer. The Moose Club had a similar one... at 9:00 pm everything stopped and bells would toll and the lodge commander would recite a prayer about "the little children in Mooseheart". And everyone would face Mooseheart and bless the little children who live there. That gave me the creeps!
