House Concert

This past Saturday night I was invited to go to a house concert.  I was interested to see if this was going to be like in the college days when a band would play in the back yard until the cops came and broke up the party.  Well it wasn't it was at a guys apartment and he had food and drinks and I ended up talking to his Dad for the longest time.  He worked at a company that makes breweries and he was telling me about the many times he went to St. Louis to the Budweiser plants.  He told me a joke that he said was told to him by the head of Budweiser at the time.  It goes like this:  Do you know what a couple having sex in a canoe and American beer have in common?  Answer is they are both f*cking close to water.  Everyone got a big chuckle out of that.  The people (about 25-35) at the party were all very nice and talked to me so that I felt comfortable.  When the music started it was a two person band with the vocals all being done by Joanna Chapman-Smith.  She is from Canada and is touring Europe right now.

and listen to some of her music.  If you hit play on the first one it will play all six of the songs.  They played all of these at the concert.

They played for about an hour then took a break so we could go fill up our beers and then they played for about another hour.  As you can see from the pictures it was a very quaint setting.  This ended up being a lot of fun.
