Did
we tell you????? Our Mum is a star and very famous here in Ketchikan. She and
David L. Jones (he's our piano teacher & Mum's musical partner) recorded a
CD called "Live at Steamers".
They called it "Live at Steamers" because that is where they were playing
and it was a great place for dinner and entertainment.
We
are so proud of our Mum and Dave. They even played for Alaska's Governor Frank
Murkowski's Inaugural Party that was held in Ketchikan. Mum sang God Bless
the USA and the National Anthem.
They
even sang in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand Hotel. Mum really felt like a star when
they got to go through the entertainers special entrance. Our Mum is a very, very
good singer. She has a 4 octave range and perfect pitch. We don't have that range
yet but we were lucky to inherit her perfect pitch. And do we love to sing!!!!
We even sang at Steamers with Mum on stage. Pretty neat experience. Now if we
could just figure out how to convince Mum to let us try out for Junior American
Idol..... hummmmmmmmm.
The CD has all
kinds of neat music like old jazz songs. We know each and every song on that CD
because we end up learning all the songs Mum sings! You can go to Mum's
site and listen to her sing songs like Unchained Melody, Fever, and
even Aubrey's favorite, Over the Rainbow.
For
Christmas, we got very cool gifts from our Gramma & Grampa. I got a real guitar
and Gramma is setting up lessons at McPherson's Music with Shannon Spring (he's
an amazing guitar player). Aubrey got a real karaoke machine. The words show up
on a screen and it has two microphones so we can both sing. Maybe the Blueberries
will have a CD someday..... We'll keep you posted.
