Sorry this is so late. We started hanging dry wall first thing this morning, and I kind of forgot about this.
Anyway, our local high school's marching band was chosen to perform in the Inaugural parade tomorrow! There were over 3000 high school bands that applied, I forget how many were chosen but I want to say it was one from each state. I don't care what your politics are, this is a HUGE honor. Those kids will always be able to say "I performed for the President". I bet those kids are nervous wrecks right about now (not to mention the parents!).
Today's question: Have you ever had the opportunity to perform or present something to anyone "important"? (Important as in, politicians, CEO, someone you wanted to impress).
I was in our town's Bi-Centennial play when I was 18, and the Governor came to see it. He came backstage before the play and wished us all luck. I was SO nervous. I got to give him credit for coming all the way out there to watch a VERY boring play and not fall asleep. Even my mom fell asleep during one of the performances!
