Berlin and the Four Winds

We've now finished our work at the FEZ and the four of us are scattered somewhere around Berlin today. Perhaps by accident or design, I'm not sure, but this does happen to be the first day we haven't travelled and performed together for the morning.

Our engager was pleased with the things we did and we received quite positive feedback from and through him. The weekend was Family Day and lots and lots of parents and quite young children were about. We did a half hour on the main stage each day, which was meant to engage the audience and also provide some interaction. We did a song from "13 Ways" which is in the Maritime ballad-style and then a version of "The Log Drivers Waltz" (who knew that would be an aneurhythm? I've had it going thru my mind forever since Freitag!) We also had a trip to Canada with the help of the kids in the audience who made sounds for various parts of the country:city, farm, ocean and wilderness. Steven taught juggling a bit and we closed with Farewell to Nova Scotia and What Do You Do with a Drunken Sailor. Complete with the audience "Weigh Hey"ing during the chorus.

The weather has been amazingly warm for the time of year but now has become more seasonable for our few remaining days. We're hoping to see some shows and explore.

Big city. Bright lights.
