Mary Frances was in Hog Heaven with the Motown - I have fond memories of many of those tunes as well. Not a bad show, all in all.
I still miss the "old days" - when you could take a blanket and a few beers, or whatever else you wanted, and sit on the West Lawn of The Capitol and listen to the National Symphony, or the U.S. Army Band, with a host like Charles Durning or Ossie Davis, both WWII Veterans, saying a few words about what this day means for us.
There was a lot of nice music, but I thought there should have been something more about the day. It's much more than a celebration, in my opinion.
It's a solemn observance.
America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!
Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
