This so rocks. Thanks for sharing.....I've never heard anyone up here in the Cities do it.

Really? I'm sure they have a performance there. I've done it for many years- something like 12 years, but this year and last I was just a spectator. My playing skills have eroded. There's a lot of middle and high school kids there, brought by their band teachers. In good weather we get 350-400 people. I think there was over 200 this year, and the building wouldn't let them play inside due to the inclement weather.

I know many cities have a performance, and I think Houston's second or third in attendance.

It's better to watch when it's on the Williams Tower lawn, but it actually sounded pretty good in the garage.
