Today was the day for the Channing House Spring Concert. We’d rehearsed yesterday afternoon and I had left the stage set up, so there was little to do to prepare for the 10am show. The earlier performance is specifically so that the aides can wheel people across from the AL floor to attend; plus some people from the IL tower prefer to attend then. There were about 60 people in the audience for that show. Everybody did their parts well. My little 2-song set went down well.
Between then and 6pm when I went to set up for the evening show at 7pm, I did my laundry, and then lounged around and napped. The evening show was SRO, at least 90 people. Everybody did well, and I got some nice “you were great” comments during the reception afterward. So that was nice.
I got video of both shows, and sometime soon — Friday maybe — I will edit a final version using the best performances from each show.
