___Soundtown, the big band my son plays in performed for one solid hour at the Laredo Center for the Arts tonight as the Vidal M. Trevino School of Communicationa and Fine Arts presented their annual literay magazine very appropriately named "Tapestry". The magazine is quite beautiful in full color and the paper on which is it printed is of the very best quality. Poems, stories, anecdotes, even some songs are very creatively presented to chronicle the full year. Quite a crowd of old dignateries especially from the age and times of the school's founder MR, Vidal M. Trevino. i had the pleasure of greeting his widowed bride and her two grown sons both of which i had the pleasure of Coaching while in elementary basketball.
___The band played in the full hall with the second story roof so the Sound filled the ole building quite appropriately. The big band played all their reportoire (sic) with a little bit of the different rhythms that brighten our hearts. The cold drinks, non-alcoholic and the sandwichitos made the evening complete. But it is a school night and after the teacher''s banquet with the VMT steel drum band and the fact that we had a full "lockdown" due to a deranged man with a weapon in our neighborhood where the school is located and we got home just in time to avoid the cloudburst and very loud thunder and rayos which hit our town, A ver si no se nos apaga la luz !
