What a wonderful night!
Everyone had a great time tonight at ECC-- even the residents were singing! The whole Akoustikos gang was so excited to be playing again at this nursing home. Everything went wonderfully-- except for the fire alarm going off. Thankfully, there were no real issues, and the program was a success. The Group was able to "mingle" with the residents a bit after the show. It was so delightful to hear all the different stories that they told! Many of the residents that were there used to play guitar, also. When asked what was their favorite part, they all replied, "All of it!"
ECC is definitly one of the Akoustikos' favorite places to play! Thank you so much Christine for the venue!

Good Times at Lindin Village!
What a blast!!
The residents and the Akoustikos Group had a wonderful time during the show and Christmas Party! After the group "strummed and picked" a few of their favorite tunes, Santa stopped by for a vistit! The Akoustikos "Elf" helped usher in Santa's arrival! So, while Santa was handing out gifts to the residents, the group took a little break to enjoy the party, cookies, and hot chocolate. But Santa could not stay long! The Akoustikos own "Elite Force"-- older students-- played two Trans-Siberian Orchestra melodies to get the show started again! At the end of the show, the residents got involved with the performance by singing to a few more "well-loved" tunes!
What a great group of people!
