These time differences have one good thing. I can update mywebsite in the middle of the night!
Some of you gave the right answer to my where am I question. ButI won't tell you who was right. That keeps it exciting not? Haha
Last night there was a pregnant lady on the first row. I played Brahms for her and I think I made her cry. Can't wait to become grandfather
While I am performing in Canada and the states, Pierre is preparing Portugal and England for the Rieu invasion. Isn't that exciting?!
Pierre sends his regards from Lissabon to all of you. He is working on a show there for next year! Legal, which means cool in Portugese!
