Half a dozen local highschools got together and had a real old fashioned "Battle of the Bands" like they did back in the 40's. Heather plays the piano in her jazz band. At the end of their set of three tunes her band and the other band joined to together into one huge BIG BAND and played one of my Glenn Miller favorites In the Mood.

They were good, I had to tell my self that these are teenagers playing and not gray and balding old men.(like me)
Then on Saturday they competed in a local Jazz festival and won 1st place in their catagory.
All those thousands of dollars we have spent on piano lessons are paying off.
