A wonderful musical weekend
As anyone who's been hearing me whine about it since last year knows, I missed my chance to see Home Free live last March. It'll probably be Autumn 2022 before they make it back this side of the pond, but until then I'll happily take whatever I can get.
So when I heard that two of the group, who've been doing solo music as well during the lockdown, were going to be doing a series of livestream concerts, in connection with another group I enjoy, Straight No Chaser, I decided I'd take a couple of days off work, and spend the time watching concerts on US time. So I watched six concerts in four days, and it was the best holiday I'd had in over a year, even staying at home.
It made me smile, made me dance in my chair and brought a lump to my throat - and a lot of the joy was from the obvious camaraderie and the love for making music and for each other's talents. If you'd like to get a feel for it - they did a Facebook live as an after party, sitting around in a dressing room, singing, chatting and making sure that all of them got to push their future projects.
