We went to see Tom Chapin and John McCutcheon perform. These are children's/folk songwriters, and they are very good. You know, the types of writers that make me wish my own songwriting abilities were, you know, better.
Anyway, these guys know how to perform. It's not so much performing as sharing a good time with the audience. They were up there, sometimes just kind of screwing around . . . when they messed up or forgot a lyric, they just went with it. They invited the audience to sing along. It was great fun. This is one of the many reasons why I love music; it can bring people together who don't know each other and allow them to share something.
Down to one more month before classes begin. I'd better start thinking about packing . . .
