...and speaking of command performances...
Recently I was driving down the road with LawDog riding shotgun and listening to rock and roll radio.
The great thing about good times is that even songs you once thought were right crap sound good to you. Fortunately, most of the tracks on that station were good ones, songs I'd merrily howl along to in front of just about anyone. As the opening strains of Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap filled the air, I said "will you sing?" He shook his head and said "no tulips."
Such a tease. He then proceeded to sing about cyanide, TNT, high voltage and things too fierce to mention, sans tulips, tophat and pink gorilla suit. The audience was thrilled, I tell you. Thrilled.
Have you heard that saying about being careful what you wish for? Well, the shy singer finally brought round to singing is apparently hard to shut up.
Tole's kiddo was in a school concert recently, and out in the audience LawDog couldn't help singing along to the recurring ditties sung to the tune of On Top Of Old Smoky. I actually had to pinch him to get him to put a cork in it, and even then, he snuck in references to meatballs and cheese.
Sly dog.
Perhaps a duet?

You need to sneak in a mic, record & post as a wav file for all of us to hear.

So, between LawDog and Imogen Heap, it's concert week for you?
Not THAT would be interesting... :-)
You are a lucky girl, aren't you?
