Last week I blogged about a great group named Venice. Well last weekend I attended their fundraiser for the Santa Monica School system and was blown away! Every year they play with famous musicians, the students and have an auction of a few instruments - which is a blast with the Auctioneer speaking a mile a minute. This event blew me away.
Fee Waybill from the Tubes was hot! "Talk to you later", "One in a million girl! The guy from men at work! "Who can it be now", "The land Down Under." And the guy from Tears for Fears. Who sang one song - I can't recall the name, that is still haunting me.
My favorite time was when the students were involved in music medleys. "Cashmere", "Bohemian Rapsody", and music from the Beatles had everybody on their seats!
The only detriment to the evening actually happened in the morning when I read that Ernie's father - Ernie Sr. had died. He has a huge entry in the Burn Ward book when he hired me as Santa, drove me like a bat out of hell in the neighborhood and welcomed me as a son to his family. Ernie will be missed.
Until we blog again.
