We had a wonderful time in Ann Arbor last night. I can not think of something I would rather do.

Gerald Ross started the concert. He is a talent par excellance, and he shared the stage with a few friends (Paul on fiddle and Kathy on ukulele) and a big handful of different instruments. He plays them all beautifully.

Gerald Ross is well-loved and well-respected in traditional music circles and ukulele circles. He has an amazing lack of ego, considering his wonderful talent.

After he played, we had our turn. We had a wonderful time. The audience was right there with us the whole show. You just can not buy such a fine evening!

And then today, Gerald Ross wrote a review on EZ-Folk, of our portion of the concert. It’s glowing with high regard, and from such a fabulous musician, I got a little choked up reading it. After all, this is what I always wanted to do… since I was a very little girl (just ask my Mom).

Thanks go to Gerald for taking the time and energy, and putting such beautiful words together on our behalf. Perhaps you would take a minute and go read it yourself.

Thanks to everyone who made the concert happen. Kathy, Joan, Richard (the three volunteers we met), Gerald, Paul and the rest at AACTMAD, thank you. We had a wonderful time.
