The only way this display could get any more gay is to be in MY house!!

The youngest one in the group and one of the nicest -- Evan!

And just like in "It's a Wonderful Life," this party had its own Mr. Bailey -- otherwise known as Tim Shawn, who prepared an absolutely to die for broccoli and cheese dish!!

[tlee618]

Thank you all so very much for sharing the great pictures!! It was great to see all of you having so much fun.

I'd love to get my hands on that beautiful piano. Nothing plays like a grand.

 

[exploder321]

Wonderful pictures..Looks like a grand time was had by all..

 

[appnut]

And sometimes nobody will play until they receive a grand lol. All keyed up with noteworthy comments.

 

[oxydolfan1]

Fun-looking group. I haven't had a party like that in years.

Nothing plays like a grand.

Thanks. You're right. Once you play on a grand it's very hard to sit at an upright with the same enthusiasm! If my house were on fire they would find me pusing and pulling to get my piano out!! It was a chrismas gift from my grandparents so it's very sentimental, to me.

Andy, are you a pianist?

Rich

Andy, are you a pianist?

Well, I've been playing since I was about seven, but I'm not what I would call a great pianist by any means. I can't sit down and just play a new piece. I have to work it out slowly and almost memorize it. But I am getting better La Vie En Rose is one my my specialty numbers. Edith Piaf songs translate so well for piano. Hymne a l'amour is another great piece.

 

[appnut]

Rich, beat me, thrill me, kill me lol. MOAN!! Bob

 

[jetcone]

I for got to say

not only was the evening lovely, the food was stupendous as well! The turkey was perfect, the cheese & broccoli casserole sent me back 3 times (oink oink).

Thanks again so much Rich & Chuck!

jon & al

While those may be limited in supply we had a couple of reputedly good organists at the shin-dig......

 

[andyelectrolux]

I tip my hat off...

to anybody who can play the organ. I have enough trouble with a single keyboard, I can't imagine adding more, plus all those pedals, buttons etc.

Though I have never heard Louis, I undersatnd that he's an excellent organist!!

I have seen and heard Bobby play a recital and I don't know how he manages to do it. It looks as though he has three feet and seven hands!!!Amazing!!
