It was AMAZING! Not only the show, but the jamming was great as well… here’s a little snippet of a jam I got into with some other young musicians before the show started:

We also started jamming after the show, but then cleaning personnel came and quite fervently evacuated us from the building :joy: I don’t blame her though, the show did run an hour and a half overtime… I guess not everyone there was a big fan of banjos!
