The Dissonance: A Little bit o’ Jazz

Dissonance08

The Microsoft MVP Global Summit is this week so I’ve been very busy setting things up, reacting to fire drills, and spending quality time with my peeps, the CRM MVP team. (What do you mean there’s only food for 12 of the 14 attendees?) These guys are a hoot to be around too, traveling from all over the world including Spain, Germany, and India amongst other countries. The group is more than just savvy, they are fun to be around with a great sense of humor.

So Tuesday night we had a special dinner for them, plenty o’ booze, and my band the Dissonance played for them. We got one of the MVPs to sit in with us for ‘Killer Joe’. And, Jeff Miller, the photographer did some tenor sax solos for two other charts.

I live for nights like that. Hey, and we got paid too!  :o)

    I would too.  Love reading about this and I transported my self in spirit, there.  I never got paid  (am I kidding?) but I have played my own type of instrument  with a group and there is no better feeling!  Such fun!
