One of the highlights of this week was subbing for Ruby and Jacob at Jewelbox @Mt Faber.
It was beautiful. There was a light show for Christmas and light rains to follow.
Jason Loo (Guitar/Vox), and Dominic Cai (Sax), and i was on Keys and Vox.
It was a last min sub but one of the best decisions i’d made in my life, given only a couple of hrs before the show to decide if i could find time for it after my teaching.
New vibes, new people, and also found another ardent fan of the 30s. That old sound speaks deeply and easily into my heart.
Yea, Jason sang that tune by Gilbert Sullivan, and my ears pricked. That oldie is one classic that i’d always love. Sometime last year i believe was when i found the kooky video of the original mv on youtube, and fell in love with it even more.
