Hi All,
I know I haven’t blogged in a while, I just haven’t had the time. This choir experience is just so excited and time consuming. I might have plenty of time to write, but be in a house without
internet, and that just makes communicating complicated. I have had wonderful experiences in most of my host homes, and have had the pleasure of staying at a home with a movie theater. Now, I mean a full movie theater with cinema chairs, popcorn, and surround sound. My host and I were able to watch Blood Diamond after the girls went to sleep. I have also stayed in homes by the beach and have been able to have my own room all but one night. I haven't had my own room for the last four years, and it makes me laugh to see that after joining tour I have my own room again...haha.
Besides the host homes, I have finally gotten my permanent assignment. Wow, I sound like a secret agent…haha. I will be staying in Florida with the tour I started on, and will be running sound. The current sound guy will be learning how to drive the bus these next two weeks, and will take over that job when he returns. I have never had the pleasure of running live sound before, and last night was the first experience. I didn't mess anything up and most of the children gave me a "good job" high-five when the concert was done. I think I might be able to get the handle of this after all. There is so much to remember and I act as House and Stage Manager and sound man all in one. WOW!!!!
The tour that I will be with will only be in Florida, and North and South Carolina. There is another tour, for all you Mid-Westerners, which will be traveling through Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan. Please make an effort to visit our website and find a concert close to you. Sorry I will not be on that tour, but you will have an understanding of what I will be doing this next year. You can find our schedule on: africanchildrenschoir.com.
I hope everyone has been having a great summer and that I will hear from you soon.
