Yes, I can't wait for another peek at the Alatars onstage!
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Well, 2 nights down, 2 standing ovations! Thats not bragging, since I suspect it has a lot more to do with the infectiousness of the music and the general feelgood factor rather than any abundance of talent on our part. Still, you take 'em when you get 'em!

I wish to join the standing ovation on principle. (Although I'd rather join it in person!) Please do post a clip sometime.

What sort of character do you play?

I'm a lonely widower who looks for love in the wrong places and ends up finding out it was right in front of me all along. So I end up with my RL wife. ;)

Oh we're not the leads... we're the old folks of the story! You know, we're in our 30's or even 40's!

I'll watch them all! Thanks so much for posting them.

But it may not be until the weekend. I'm stuck working an a laptop with tinny speakers and I can't wear headphones (got to listen for other things), so I can't hear video clips very well.
