playing for my supper

Apparently I played pretty decently at the Red Rocks Resort and Blue Vervain restaurant tonight. (I know I called it the Minnekahta dayspa in a previous post, but I was confused. It's the Red Rocks Resort) I played Chopin Fantasie Impromptu, The Girl with the Flaxen Hair by Debussy, Mozart's Fantasie in dm, and then I sight read a bunch of stuff from the books there, includign Moonlight Sonata, Fur Elise, a Chopin etude, and a Josh Groban piece. For my music, I got a $20 meal for free AND a lady tipped me $20 and told me that she'd really really enjoyed my playing. Can you believe it? I can't! And all I had to do was ask if I could play.

Steph,
I'm glad that I enspired you to start a blog and that you got to put some of your musical training to use. If you want to see a really cool comparison between calvin (of calvina and hobbes) and the main character of Fight Club, go to www.ualberta.ca/~jdefoe/ and follow the calvin link. It's pretty cool.
