Boy this has been a tough day in the neighborhood ...
Sure makes arguing about speakers EASY !!! ...

Peace and good health to ALL of you ...

I could use a drink!!! ...and when Lent is over I'm going to raise a toast for ALL OF US!!! ...
(Yeah, gave up alcohol and sweets for Lent ... not that I'm a big drinker, but I enjoy a martini before and wine with dinner a couple of nights a week)

PS ... Fortunately for me, the toughest thing I had to do was play a grand opening of a Stop & Shop super market ... had them dancing in the aisles - LITERALLY ! ..

Tony....
Your Stop and Shop story brought back memories of "retail" gigs I have done over the years at grand openings of shopping centers, car dealer sales events and, yes, a grocery chain.

Publix Supermarkets hired me several times to play patriotic songs in honor of Veterans Day...in front of the meat, fish, milk and egg departments. Like your dancers, the Publix customers were all marching around and saluting one another as they paraded their shopping carts past me. (Ahhh, the big time.)
