The boys don't get home 'til 6am, and the girls wake up at 9am, but I'm thankful that they didn't wake up any earlier...
They spot my bag of percussion instruments and start playing the glokenspiel, marakas and tambourine whilst singing their own songs (la la la la) and dancing... Although I'm feeling pretty shattered it's soooo lovely to see the 2 of them playing so nicely together... Not sure kevin apreciates all the noise whilst he's trying to sleep, but thomas seems to be able to sleep through it.....
Tonight's concert is at the "Vaches Folks Festival" at Divonne les Bains, about an hour from here... Cindy comes to get Lily and we all hit the road... We're all a bit tense as we found out yesterday that there was no time for us to do a proper sound check, and that we were going to just have a quick line check before playing... We sit and have a few beers once we've put our tents up and Cindy's Mum comes to take the girls back to her's for the night... I love my baby, but it does feel nice to know that I'm child free for the whole night, and that for once I don't have to drive anywhere after the concert....
Our line check goes smoothly and the concert is WICKED !!! One of our friends Sim has come a long way to see us, and as always Aziz is jumping and singing like a looney just infront of the stage... A few guys we've never even met pay us beers and even a bottle of wine on stage whilst we're playing... There are young children, adolescents, teenagers, adults and even elderly dancing to our music and that feels awesome ^_^ We sell all of the CDs we bought with us again - YIPEEE !!....
Two of my dear friends are getting married today and they're in France.... I can't make it as we'd already said yes to play in the concert, but I smile as we start playing and I think of them & send happy vibes their way, even though I am sad not to be able to be there... I know they'll be having a whale of a time & that many adventures and amazing times lie before them...
