Sorry so long since my last post. The Open Mic the other night was a great time. Plenty of good musicians showed up to sit in, and it became more of a jam-fest than open mic. At our peak, we had a full band…two guitars, drums, bass, and even harmonica/vocals.
Some of the neighborhood kids joined in as well, including one kid on the violin and my own 8 year old on the drum kit. We tried in vain to get some of the girls to sing, but they were more interested in dancing. Oh well…can’t complain about that.
Even more impressive though was how equipment just seemed to show up. Some plywood for the stage, and easy-up to give us some shelter from the sun. We were without a PA for the beginning of the evening, but then even that arrived miraculously.
Most importantly, great fun was had by all…so it looks as if we’ll have to do it again soon! I’ll be sure to post a notice here as soon as the next date is determined. Thanks to everyone for all of the help and efforts to put it all together.
