Mother's Day weekend was great!
Not because of Mother's Day though. It was because my son had his first rock gig at a local bar. He and his band, The Screamin' Demons, played three songs on Saturday and Sunday: Dirty Deeds by AC/DC, Money Maker by the Black Keys, and Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes. They had such a good time performing and we thoroughly enjoyed watching! Their band has three guitarists, two singer/keyboard players, and a drummer. They are all ten and under! I couldn't believe that they could play so well at that age!
This was my son's first time in front of a crowd and he was nervous, but as soon as the music started he just got into the music and loved it. Here is a short clip of them playing Money Maker. My son is the one in the orange and black striped shirt, between the two singers.
(The bass player is an assistant teacher.)
What did you get to do this weekend? I hope you got to enjoy some beautiful weather.
We leave for Alaska in 4 days!!!! If our internet access is good enough I might blog a little on the way, otherwise I'll be back in June.

Good for him! He's like me - focus on the guitar, not the crowd.
