Kelli and the Shadowmen

I hear the stage show rehearsal of Kelli and the Shadowmen held last Friday afternoon went great. The people who were invited to attend the rehearsal apparently had a good time. I couldn’t be there in person, although I would have loved to be, but I surely was there in spirit.

I am so excited for them as they are about to start their tour on their Big Black Bus. Since Andrew, my partner in music2work2, is one of the Shadowmen, I have followed the development and progress of this group. Watch for their shows when they come to your town. I’m really looking forward to attending a show myself.

A new friend

Over the weekend, I became the owner of another dog. He can never replace my dear Cassie, but I missed having the companionship of a loving animal around. I adopted him from the SPCA. He is a wonderful little guy who just wants attention and love.

Having adopted him on St. Patrick’s Day, we thought an Irish name would be fitting; his name is Doogan, which means “dark lad.” He is a pug/terrier/? mix, solid black with black eyes and only one small white patch on his chest. He has added joy to my life already. I’m so glad to have found him.

music2work2

I’ve been listening to a lot of music2work2 this week. Now that I feel better and am trying to get caught up on some of the work I got so far behind with while I was sick, I have had music2work2 playing in the background any time I’m at the computer.

I suppose I am a little biased – after all, I wouldn’t be involved with music2work2 if I didn’t like the music and believe in the project. But, even though I listen to the sessions over and over again, I don’t tire of them and I continue to marvel at just how beautiful the music is.

The sessions composed originally are wonderful; but, I think the ones Andrew has composed in the past year are even more wonderful - absolutely fantastic! The sessions containing more voices – strings, organ, etc. have such fullness and depth to them. I am anxious to get busy letting everyone know about music2work2. That will come when we get some changes and improvements made to the web site. We are constantly getting more people registering on the site anyway; that’s terrific and I’m so glad they are finding us. But, I’m ready to let the entire world know about music2work2 and share this marvelous music with them.
