The Band

Well it started out just like any other gig... we woke up to some newly fallen snow. But that was not going to keep us from the night of all nights. We were informed that the Castle on the Hill had received more snow than the valley had. But still, nothing could keep us from our fans...

Before the gig we each made little pizzas (from Millissa's famous pizza recipe) and had some snacks. We set up out gear and tried out a few riffs, licks and did our sound check. We were pretty rusty, not playing together for some time. But, as soon as we worked through the rust it was like old times. We all meshed perfectly together like nuts and bolts, as though we had never been apart. Even Lance and his La bamba were dead on!

The night was filled with high kicks, hand motions and all together fun.

Thanks Natalie and Justin for the Venue, Melanie and Lance for being such good sports.
Video - sorry it's poor quality. Guess we should talk to our stage hands for that. Anyway thanks Morgan, Elle, Natilie and Millissa for the great views.

Enjoy the video...

So, I think my invitation was lost in the mail and besides that the blog video doesn't work anymore so I can't even experience the event from a distance. However, after reading Shauna's comment, it's all probably for the best. Probably, for sure! Did you play any Frank Sinatra? Just wondering.

Shauna remember, we were born in the same year... You ARE related, and you love us!

Mary keep trying on the video. And by the way, who's this Frank guy you speak of?
