An Inspired Week - Inauguration week and Martin Luther King Celebration all at once

Inspired by the events of this week. It's January 18, 2009 and we are getting ready to usher in the presidency of Barak Obama. The entire country is buzzing. We just watched the pre-ceremony in front of the Lincoln Memorial and it was awe inspiring. There were performances by Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, John Mellencamp, Mary J. Blige, the sound was stunning and the performances were too.

There were also speakers, and Tom Hanks presentation reading Lincoln's quotes with the orchestra playing was absolutely amazing. We will be playing for the opening of Rosa Parks square tomorrow, and at the Martin Luther King Celebration tomorrow night. We feel so honored. We just played and put on the MLK Assembly at North Eugene High last Friday, and we just learned that we will be going to China Feb 24 - March 10.
