## Notes

Not my usual cup of tea, but a fun night nonetheless! Everybody on stage appeared to be having a great time -- and we all know that positive attitude makes for a better night!

And as tonight was a fundraiser to help buy instruments and [send Jerry to Kurdistan](http://www.jerryjoseph.com/2017/01/jerry-joseph-will-be-traveling-to-the-kurdistan-region-of-iraq/) to teach music to refugees, it seems appropriate to point you towards his [Go Fund Me site](https://www.gofundme.com/send-jerry-joseph-musician-and-music-teacher-to-Iraq).
