Dorion Bible Camp Songs Home Recordings

.

Six years ago I began recording Dorion Bible Camp songs (the "card" songs). Recently with "Stay at Home", I've begun catching up.

Because it has so many embedded videos, the page takes a while to load (at least with my slow connection), so I've moved it from being the first page you see. So I've moved it to earlier in the year.

Sat. Mar. 9/24 at the Poetry Night at Branch 5 Legion Open Mic I sang my original song "Don't Be Afraid". Review: "That song was just what I needed." - young lady who was very nervous about reading her poetry publicly.

Badanai gift

Jim Sutton gave me these shoes, but due to the way my feet tip outwards, they are worn out beyond comfortable use. Photos taken Mar. 7/24:

.

My theme was making songs count:

Count On Me (Mars),
All Together Now (Lennon/MCCARTNEY),
1234 (Feist/Seltmann).

Bernie let me do one more. So I closed with One (U2).

Review: "Good set list." - guy at the bar. "You sounded fabulous!" - Zach's friend.

Open MIc at Lakehead Beer: Feb. 29/24

.

This past Thursday (Feb. 29/24) my theme was "I Want You". I sang:

I Want You (Dylan),
I Want You Back (Gordy/Perren/Mizell/Richards), and
All I Want Is You (U2), closing with a fumbled insrumental quote from I Want You (She's So Heavy) (Lennon/McCartney).

Review: "I like your Homer Simpson jersey." -- several people.

This was the night that we had an early closing so that a young man could be taken home by his caregivers. He insisted on staying until it was over. So Bernie went from table to table and let us all know, he'd announce it was over, so they could take him home. Then we'd start again. However, John was singing at the time, and so he didn't get the memo, and was quite surprised.

Badanais gave this to me as a gift for being in one of the shows L directed for Cambrian, but it deflated, and got dusty. It no longer sparked joy.
