Shannon has been nominated for Citizen of the Year in her hometown of Dover, NH. Attached is one of the letters written in her support. I couldn’t be more happy for her nor more proud of her. Keep your fingers crossed!Shannon_hill_LRec1[1]
New Year’s Eve 2009
If you checked out my previous post on New Year’s Eve, you’ll see that my attempt to do live video streaming didn’t work so well.
I was able to capture some halfway decent videos on my photo camera though. Here’s some of the videos I got at a couple of the bars I was in.
First some JR and Natalie videos from the Cafe 210. The videos are a little jumpy because I was zoomed in to try to prevent the lights from behind the band from overwhelming the camera sensors. For the most part I succeeded.
Van Morrison’s “Wild Nights”.
Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline”
Tom Petty’s “Free Falling” — kind of funny because Natalie grabbed the camera out of my hands and briefly turned it around on me.
Roberta Flack (and the Fugees) “Killing Me Softly”
JR and Natalie ended their last set at 1:30 and Natalie (and I) rushed over to the Phyrst before they gave their 2:00 am last call. At the Phyrst, Natalie did a couple of songs with Maxwell Strait (she’s been filling in as the lead singer with them because their normal lead, Molly Countermine, has been out having her third child). Molly, Natalie, and the third woman on stage, Kate Twoey, also perform together as a trio called Pure Cane Sugar.
Aretha Franklin’s Chain of Fools
Crosby, Stills, and Nash’s “Four Dead in Ohio”
Needless to say – I’m having fun with my new camera.
