I love this picture. It reminds me of where I am moving to. When I was there looking for a place, I heard from people that it was supposed to be a cool Summer. That will be so nice.

A good friend of mine left for VA last night. They are moving there so I wish them a safe trip. She too is moving from the city to a small town. I am very happy for her and wish her and her man the best as they start a new chapter in VA.

Tim McGraw- One of those nights.

Love this song.

George Strait- Yes or No

Am looking forward to the Smoky River Festival this June. It is always so much fun.

Alan Jackson- Good Time

Big Band Dance, featuring
Bobby Layne & His Orchestra
with vocalist Trudy DuMay

Friday, 7-10:30 p.m., Bicentennial Center

Celebrating 56 years in Big Band, Layne is a master of the beloved music of the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s, including such tunes as: “String of Pearls,” “In the Mood,” “Stardust,” and many other favorites. Trudy DuMay has been a featured vocalist with the Orchestra since 1974, with a talent for “bringing out the best in a song, in the big band style.” Don’t miss the “Salute to the Troops” and other nostalgic, sway-able tunes.

My uncle Jack really enjoyed the Big Band Night, as he was a very good musican and played the drums. He knew all the Big Bands that came through town. He would talk to them after the show as he knew them and they knew him.

I think that is one reason why I like the music of the Big Band era.. Glenn Miller was very talented. I like his Little Brown Jug version. He wrote that for his wife. In the Mood is another great song.

Glenn Miller- In the Mood

Little Brown Jug

There are so many kinds of music I enjoy listening to and even playing. I like Classical too…

I am really enjoying learning how to play the Bodhran..

Hope everyone has a great day.
