Last night’s Seminole Heights social distancing sing-along


It happened last night — a social distancing sing-along in the spirit of the ones they’ve been doing in Italy!

Yesterday afternoon, while taking a break from work (I’ve been working from home on my front porch as part of the COVID-19 measures that a lot of people are taking), I decided to get in a little accordion practice. As I wrote yesterday, got the attention Susan, of our neighbor across the street, who suggested an impromptu performance/sing-along for our corner. In about a couple of minutes, she managed to get the word out to a number of neighbors, and I was scheduled for a 7 p.m. performance! A number of our neighbors set up lawnchairs to catch the performance from a safe social distance.

Anitra took my phone and live-streamed the show to Facebook Live. I took those Facebook Live videos and stitched them together into a single YouTube video — enjoy!

There’s another one scheduled for tomorrow at 7 p.m.. I may have to play The Gambler in Kenny’s honor.
