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 to teach music to refugees, it seems appropriate to point you towards his Go Fund Me site.
