Kennedy Center Millenium Stage - Summer Outing & Music Imersion

We enjoyed the lovely summer day, pot luck lunch, outing plus cultural immersion program - U.S. legendary premier Navy Band "Country Current".  Seven naval officers and members, are all talented in different musical instruments- guitar, banjo, drums , fiddle, mandolin, pedal/steel guitar, together.  They performed a blend of modern country music.  I was particularly in awe of the fast-beat bluegrass music.  It's amazing!  The renowned country song  "Missouri" was a solo by the lead vocalist from Rocky Comfort, Missouri, a rocky terrain and idyllic countryside small town where he was born.  He misses his hometown! That was good!  His voice and members' musicianship!  We put our hands over our hearts while Jen-Jen who was a service retiree saluted to the National Anthem singing.

Total cost - $23 indoor parking. with Jen-Jen's driving skills criss-crossing in DC instead of our early decision of getting around with public transportation, Ride-On-T2-Subway and Shuttle.....  Thanks to Tom, Mimi's husband's treat!  We are tennis partners.

Please see the list for next concert and let me know so we can organize it again.
