for the love of big band

I’ve always been a fan of big band music. I really can’t figure out how it all started but I bet this has got something to do with my parents’ love for Frank Sinatra, and then their Singin’ with the Big Bands album by Barry Manilow, which I chose to be played over and over again on our wedding reception. Maybe if Josh and I were rich, we could have hired a real “big band.”

But I realize I’m going a little off on a tangent now. Haha. :hide: Tonight, we watched Richard Poon’s concert at the Terraces for free, and I think I’ve mentioned before about going a little gaga over this big band crooner. Haha. So when I’ve read that we could get free tickets for his mini-concert, I just knew I have to find a way. Hehe.

Oh I would love to write everything in detail. But I’m just so high up there right now, starstruck that I might just as well top it all off in one sentence.

In the concert, I had the chance to meet and chat with Richard Poon in person (!) and won a minor prize! Hihi.

This has got to be one of the best Mother’s Day surprises ever. Definitely a surprise I didn’t expect or ask for. =) Share ko lang ang pics taken by my paparazzo husband. ;-)

He asked if I was Jane. Waaah. I appreciate his effort in making small talks. hehe.

He asked if I enjoyed the show. I said, "Yes, and I won!" So that's me showing him my GC. hahaha!

My kilig face. Wahaha!

Apart from being so talented, he was very sweet and nice. =) This is the part where he held my waist. haha! :hide:
