Notes

Tonight's set was slightly different than the Friday's Live stream: good enough for me!

It was nutty how long it took the audience to get up and dance tonight. Must have been Sunday lethargy or something.

Nearly all of the banter tonight was in French; I could pick up a word here and there, but not enough to make much sense of things. One more thing for my list of things to learn eventually!

It was interesting how much Miriam tried to get folks singing along – my impression is that she simply assumed we all knew their songs, and wanted to participate.
