All right, yes, I'm Brian Ke7kzh. I had a lovely weekend. I ended up getting a call, it was a Wednesday night, asking if I would last minute stuff in for a concert with Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra. They were doing a Latin America concert, so there's even a mariachi band and some singers and stuff and it was all Latin American music and stuff. A lot of fun. In the city of Bellevue, I was having a large event downtown and so they actually played the whole symphony orchestra. I did this concert there on Saturday afternoon. So it was actually a hoot and a holler. It was a lot of fun and yeah, very glad that I got that last minute call because it was a lot of fun. Today I was actually traveling early this morning. I had a wedding gig with my string quartet over in Port Townsend over at what is it called, Fort Warden. So one thing is it was outdoor and so it was nice and sunny today but well it's a high of 56 degrees so and the wind was just whipping through there and stuff. So definitely it was a very cold wedding to play but it went off. It wasn't too long of a wedding and stuff and then we were able to do like the cocktail hour. I guess we still did it outside but we were up against a building and stuff and so the wind wasn't quite as bad there but definitely playing outside for about an hour and a half almost two hours. My hands were getting very cold and first violinist, all of her strings just went completely slack at one point and she had to like try to retune and oh my gosh our string instruments do not like these cold temperatures like that stuff. So luckily we made it through no problem. Now let me reset real quick.
