My second broadcast's title is a weird one. I am not a spammer!!! It's a typo. The title was created with poor dictation. Siri misinterpreted what I was saying while I was walking up to start the second set. The title made me chuckle. I had to get ready, so I used it.
Musicians Tips:
- Balance the amount of time you spend saying hello to visitors and resting/recharging.
- Your face's smile muscles should hurt from smiling after you go home.
- Use your endurance efficiently by pacing your performance energy output and look at the duration with a "big picture" perspective. Start out simple and gradually increase through out.
2nd Broadcast's Highlights:
- Kid dancers convince us to play as fast as we can at 01:03. We play a whirl wind version of, "Everybody Love A Saturday Night."
plays a searing hot steel drum solo at 05:38.
- At 07:40 we play a song called, "On and On." Look to the bottom left corner of the screen to see some silly kids jumping around. Taco Surf is a "cantina" and I think that means you can have Booz around kids.
- Our singer friend Kriss joins us again at 13:35. She sings The Beatles tune, "Across The Universe" and at 18:29Kriss sings "What's So Funny About Peace Love and Understanding" by Elvis Costello.
- At 26:49, we play the original "Let's Run Away" again! It's new we want to sneak in a practice and people are new. Fortunately a dancer moves the camera to a spot providing an angle that we've never seen before at 27:00.
Oh and I used my new camera lens on the back camera for this broadcast and it looks better. The portal look is gone now. Unfortunately, the microphone is now covered by the frame of the lens... I guess it's cool if you get used to it.
- I aim the camera at our drummer again for the next song, "Stir It Up" at 33:46. Checkout Max playing a simple reggae for the dancers to sway with.
- We end our night's performance with "Let It Be" at 40:24. We do a reggae version of The Beatles classic. We love The Beatles. I'm gonna sing louder.
That's our last song and the rest of the broadcast is brief and silly. After some socializing, we pack up our equipment, eat more tacos, get money, and go home.
We have another performance scheduled for the very next day. Tomorrow we will be the background/main entertainment for a city council award ceremony.

Part 1 has already payed out, but it features more videos and GIF. It all went down on the same day. Part 1 is the start of my double header. Two performance venues in one day. I'm grateful.
