I had a great time last night. It's amazing how rejuvenating music can be! I was exhausted from work, but once I got the sax out and started playing, my spirits were lifted.

We mainly played some Christmas tunes for next weeks performance in Parksley. Some pieces I remember: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, White Christmas, Parade of the Wooden Soldiers, Home for Christmas, It's Beginning to Look Like Christmas, Great Songs of Christmas, Rudolph's Christmas Overture, The Sound of Angels, March of the Toys, Do You Hear What I Hear/Snow Bells. After that, we played some favorites..Gospel John and The Wiz.
