June 20… Rained out at the car show (But rescheduled for August 1 — it will be a sunny day for sure!)
June 21… Rained out at the beach…
June 24… Finally we are able to squeeze in a show between the showers. We share a bill with the Fabulous Unknowns, an up-and-coming blues trio. Rumor has it they won’t be Unknown for long — they are very good! Ro has a big crush on the slide guitar player “Slidemaster” (sigh)
Audrey has a GPS on Jeff, so we are able to track his concert-bound commute (He’s on 287! He’s on 80! He’s on 206! There goes his car! That’s him! That’s him!) The excitement is palpable. He arrives with plenty of time to change into his black ‘n’ blues, the uniform of the day. Steve paces in anticipation, watching the storm clouds gather and threaten us with certain death by electrocution. Ro muses, “What if my last word is “Bop?” But all fears are put to rest when the clouds pass us by and go on to ruin someone else’s outdoor plans for a change.
We are able to debut our three new songs and don’t mess them up at all! We do, however, have some pronoun-related mishaps on “Pretty Little Angel Eyes” which I’m sure will be addressed at our next rehearsal. The audience doesn’t seem to notice and it is great fun singing outdoors at Flanders Park yet again.
A big hello and thank you to our loyal fans, including many of Ro’s students and former students who came out to the show to celebrate the end of the school year. It was great to see a lot of “Happy Foster Dances” going on!
Happy Summer, everyone!
