The best kind of high.....

We had our Double Take Impersonators Show last night…..what a night! We spent the day taking care of all the little odds and ends. Had that anticipatory (or nervous) energy going all day.

We had a few last minute cancellations of tickets, and a few even more last minute calls to see if tickets were still available. Gotta love it when it works out that way. We have seats reserved already for our next show, October 19th!

Folks started flooding in at 5:30, for dinner. The service staff was buzzing along….. everything was going smooth as silk. There was electricity in the air. That anticipatory energy was building. We had a few last minute arrivals, that’s okay, the service staff was on it.

We had 7 acts last night, and EVERYONE brought their “A” game! It was incredible! The veterans that I work with keep telling me every show is different, and last night’s was the best! Every singer gave it their all, and had the audience in the palm of their hand. I realized I was standing back watching pure magic. We had an absolute blast, and even more important, so did the audience! People were singing along, swaying back and forth and dancing in their seats. Some even got up and danced in the middle of the show! The applause was thunderous! The electric feeling in the air was palpable!

There’s no better feeling than to know that everyone present had a great time! And, there’s no better high than that.

After breaking down the equipment and loading up our cars, we all went home. About ten minutes after I got home, I crashed, into a blissfully deep sleep.
