I want to both thank and commend Jay Johnson and family for a job well done at their 2nd House Concert Sunday July 9. From an artist's perspective they did everything to make us comfortable and at home. The room we performed in was air-conditioned, ample and had a very nice corner to play from (even had a couple of lights on us). The audience, in spite of not being familiar with house concerts were respectful, engaged and responsive. Between sets we all went out to Jay's garage and shared food and conversation. After the show we did the same. All in all it was a wonderful experience for an artist and one I look forward to having again. As a presenter, I understand all the work that Jay did to put this together. It is truly a labor of love and I wish him the best as he tries to establish this new series. The crowd was small in numbers but large in heart, response and generosity. If you know people in the Cleveland or Akron areas please let them know about this Streetsboro, OH up and coming concert series. Thanks again Jay. Bob Beach- Fitzgerald & Beach |
