...and the Yankees led the way, through game six and beyond...
Yes, they won, and there'll be no gloating or gross celebrations...(ok, maybe just a tiny bit). It was a great series and both teams are deserved of much praise for their superior athleticism and prowess. I had a great time watching each game. Viewing the game in HD was especially cool! Never seen a series like that before, so it was definitely a treat.
The week has been fairly steady with work. I've been working with some students at a local junior high here in town. The afternoons spent at the club have been mildly productive and the students in the tech-lab are making progress. The gig I played Thursday night was freakin' sweet! The trio played for a benefit dinner. The music sounded great in the house and the event couldn't have gone smoother. It truly was the ideal gig laced with great pay, exquisite food, and a gracious audience and host organization. If only the music "business" world could operate in that fashion all the time...*sigh*...
My week ended this evening after attending the senior recital of a friend and colleague. Her musicality was truly present this evening as she entertained an over packed recital hall filled with friends, family, and fellow musicians. I was very pleased with her performance and was so happy that she had a great time performing. Too often I see, or experience, a musician's performance suffer due to some type of apprehension, or lacking in confidence. They cease to have any enjoyment from the music and in turn, their ability to simply have a good time playing said music becomes lost. Tonight was anything but a prime example. She was poised, calm, confident, and musical! I wish her the best in her career endeavors and her progress as a musician. Thanks to her for providing such a wonderfully musical evening for us all.
I hope wherever you are there are musicians who enjoy sharing and living the music. Give them your love, your attention, and your ears...we all love it when we know someone is enjoying the ideas, emotions, and notes we are expressing.
Ciao!
