Big Band Music

Tonight we went to see a local big band. Our city puts on free, weekly concerts once a week. Last week was a concert band (like high school but with adults playing) and this week was a "swing" band (think high school jazz band but with adults). They were both pretty decent.

Frances loved it. She stood on our laps and danced a quite a bit. Of course by "dance" I mean bounced and wildly swung her arms. She seemed to especially get excited when a new style of music was played. It was like she would get used to a style and then it would get boring after a while.

On a side note, you can tell that your old when your favorite band comes to town and you don't even bother to try to get tickets but given the chance at a free, family-friendly concert you go no matter what is being played.
