A Surprise Musical Guest and Live Appearance I saw him perform live and I was so taken with his charisma, talent, dedication and commitment to his performance that I made a decision --- right then and there. I was going to ask if I could interview him. Nothing was going to stop me from getting back stage. I told the guard "I am press. I have a show on iHeart Radio."

If there is music playing, SING. My family knows that there is no way to get out of this one. Unless you are too sick to join in, it's expected of everyone in the room. Music heals and nourishes.
