I once had the honor of being the One Woman Band to entertain the 55th reunion of a regional group of Pearl Harbor Survivors.

I started out with Glenn Miller and stuff like that, but they requested more Rock & Roll.

Wonderful Bunch of People!

And not a SINGLE Mitsubishi in the Parking Lot.

I LOVE the USS Bowfin! I have been on it quite a few times. Is The Gentleman who used to host the tours still on Duty? (One of the original crewmen).

They were the coolest bunch of men!
They all wore Hawaiian shirts, and leis around their necks, and danced every dance.

One man was a Veteran of WW2, Korea, AND Vietnam.

Awesome!

I started out with Glenn Miller

I like Glenn Miller. Which of his songs can you play?

Moonlight Serenade, Pennsylvania 6-500, String of Pearls, So Rare,

by Count Basie:
One O’Clock Jump

Duke Ellington: Take the A-train, Satin Doll

Stuff like that.

South Florida Seniors hated my act. I bombed when I moved here 11 years ago. But I was beloved up North. (Jazz, Soul, R&B, Motown, Classic Rock) I never figured it out. All they wanted in Florida was “New York NY, Memory from Cats, The macarena, and The Electric Slide. That’s when I started teaching instead. And of course, now I will teach until I die from exhaustion. LOL. I love teaching. It is a new life for me.
