NEVAH would like to thank everyone who came to our show on the 18th. You truly made our efforts worthwhile as you had fun, listened, drank a little (okay maybe a lot), participated, and hopefully at the end of it all had "your fevah relieved"
A special thanks to Mike Dow for introducing us in such an elegant and complimentary fashion. I for one couldn't wait to hear the talented group he was talking about and then I realized, "it was us," then, "I got nervous." Fortunately from the reaction of all that were present I think we came close to living up to Mike's kind words.
As promised we continued to stretch our wings a little as evidenced by the second set where we featured different groupings of members with some solo presentations. It warmed our hearts to hear the spontaneous reactions elicited by each vignette. From the clapping that started with Richard and Larry's mandolin offering to the audible crowd gasp when "Mr. Humpty jumped instead of fell" as told in Hal's beautiful rendition of "Cinderella's Story" to the huge, swelling, cheer that built up as we broke into "Helplessly Hoping" only to be topped by the "pin drop" silence everyone experienced during Ed's solo Big Band crooning, Jack's emotionally stirring dobro instrumental, and Dick's stepping out from behind the drums to play guitar and present a heartfelt version of "Can't You See" we were elated.
The Next Generation Theatre has become a second home for us and we want to thank Tracey for providing such a great venue for all the musicians in the area to be able to do what they love "Play Music"
Until next time I will leave you with a few pictures
from Cabin Fevah Relievah Pas Tois, enjoy!
