I have been booked to perform this coming Weds night.....for a baby shower! [Eek!] [Smile]

The woman who hired me saw me do a exhibition performance and called me straight away for this party she is planning. We went to the restaraunt where I will be performing and the owner is thrilled about it all, trusting me so implicitly he didn't want to see the safety write-ups I brought.

The woman who hired me is hoping that maybe my show will induce labor! [Eek!]

Hmm...and I thought performing at a wedding was weird! This takes it!

:walks away mumbling about finding "baby happy" music:

You know, if it does induce labour and it's twins, try to delay the cutting of the umbilical cord... Novelty poi!

Durbs,
That was the most not-right image I have had in my head in a long time! Funny as hell, but still not right. [Big Grin]

you know how things look small when they're further away? And when you get closer to them they get bigger?

Durbs doesn't do that.....

nice use of what's available, but I agree a little disturbing. I don't know exactly what type of fire work you are doing, but I think that some of the gorillaz tracks are a little calmer. I also like rusted root, which would be a kinda general happy friendly music. [Big Grin] hope maybe that will help since Durbs didn't. [Razz]

Thanks Molly.
In the absence of help (thanks guys! [Roll Eyes] )
I decided to choose between Loreena, Enya (Orinoco Flow to be exact) and Blackmore's Night.
Rusted Root is a nice thought. Hadn't thought of them in years, thanks for that.
Hmmmm *looking around at boxes*, now where did I leave that tape????

What about "Just the Two of Us" by Will Smith?

Ok, it's cheesy, it's rap, and it's by a man, but thematically appropriate.

It went very well. We ended up going with a Celtic Moods CD. Pele spun very well (even with her ankle still feeling sore) and the audience was great. Aplause at the end and everything.

The party came out of the restaraunt and watched. The guest of honor was very surprised but smiled through the whole thing. The entire staff stopped working and they all went outside to watch too. Only the owner and the party organizer knew that this entertainment was going to be there so actually everyone was surprised.
Then they invited us in and we all chatted for about an hour. Pele and I felt a little out of place as we weren't really dressed for a nice restaraunt like this. It was one of those places where the food is prepared like artwork. It was delicious though. Oh, [Big Grin] they even delivered the desserts with flames (shredded coconut.)

All in all, a really good performance night. If only they all could be that good.

Thanks, PWB! Glad it went well. Sounds like fun.

And an artsy-phartsy restaurant like that needs a bit of fire spinnin' every now and then, methinks.

Pele, the Boards of Canada make nice sounding music, try Music Has The Right to Children.
Hope that helps.
Also you still have an unread message, look in your profile.
