Yes! We all played music. Everybody played, everybody sang. It was great! I miss the days when I was surrounded by live music. I need to make it happen again. I have instruments. I just need people.
Way back in high school we had a Folk Club and this song reminds me of that. We'd play guitar and sing Buffy St. Marie's "Universal Soldier" song. What great memories.
