Bigger E. Soars From Nest

So.
I got an Email this morning.
In response to one I had sent last night just before bed.
To my oldest kid who is 3,000 miles away.
I’d sent her my little mp3 of ‘The Parting Glass’ that I’d captured with my newfangled portable recording device.
Which will be fantastic for street performing/busking, which is something I did with both my kids, Bigger E. and littler e. too, for pretty much all of 2010.
Anyway….
Here is what Bigger E., who was then in high school back then, and who is now a freshman in college, to say:

Wow! Great quality, thank you for the tune….!
I played a heckuva coffee house here at G. House tonight, ended up singing in pretty much each act.

With my band…
-The Weight
-Southern Man
-Rocky Racoon
With J….
-Valerie (Amy Winehouse)
-Big Mistake (Tim Fite)
With C. (I also played uke for this one)…
-Jolene
-Folsom Prison
With Max…
-Proud Mary

Gadzooks, my voice is raw!
Have a happy dappy Valentimes day!

E.

Kids these days.
Who even knew that they say stuff like ‘Gadzooks’.
All joking aside…
Can there be absolutely anything better than something like that sitting in your Inbox waiting for you to open it on a ho-hum workaday morning in mid-February?
