Live music is a gift!

Eagerly awaiting for the new lineup for WSRE's Studio Amped, the series of live local performances at the local state college that are taped live and aired in April. This program is great for supporting area talents that range from alt/rock, reggae, folk,and jazz. Last year, we took our children to a performance by Roman Street, the uber talented jazz band from Mobile AL. Our children were so good, sitting there enjoying the music, clapping after each song and listening as the studio directors gave the audience some direction since it was being filmed. I think doing things like this as an individual or family is a great way to support local talent, and  to be in the moment of a live act rather than observing distantly on tv or video is a good choice for the soul. What a better way to spend a few hours and donating some time and perhaps cash to buy their cd's and tip your hat to their gift to you - live music!
This video is the performance we attended last year, and hope to attend more than one this year as there were two weeks worth to choose from!
