Photo Hunters: Two for One



I ran down to Rutland on Wednesday in order to attend this concert at the old Paramount Theater. What a wonderful night! The music was superb. I can't say enough about it, so I will let the video tell you all.

Most of the photos are lousy, but the music? Well, you'll see! I felt very self-conscious taking photos (I never used flash) but I should have taken hundreds more: everybody else had cameras, phones and video. But this is what I got.

Why is this my Photo Hunt? It was two huge shows for one. And one of the acts was two singers. I chose the song in the video because it was the shortest song by the first musician. On Thursday morning I went to the iTunes store and bought a lot of music.

Happy Hunting! I am birding today and am going to the Pirates of Penzance tonight, but I will visit you during the day when I am home and tomorrow (before the Demo Derby at the Fair, that is!)

  5. A completely different take Photo Hunt - more of a music hunt.

    I have heard of the Indigo Girls - their rendition of 'Midnight train to Georgia' is fantastic. Never heard of Brandi Carlise. Good song though.

  48. I would love to see the Indigo Girls. While I was viewing your clips and listening, so was my husband who emerged from the shower wrapped in a towel, dripping all the way to the computer to see who I was listening to. We will have to check her out.

  50. Great song! The theatre looked beautiful. I saw the Indigo Girls in an outdoor concert in the mid 90's. 1994 I think, but it's been so long I can't remember now. It was fantastic. They are a great act to see live. Glad you had a great time. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
