Acclarion and...Mohammad Ali?

Today's concert in La Porte, Indiana takes the cake for the biggest venue we've ever played in. An intimate classical accordion and clarinet duo performing in an arena that has featured world championship boxing with Mohammad Ali as well as shows by Bob Hope and as recent as this summer, Randy Travis! David picked up the microphone during the show and announced us to the audience in an over the top wrestling announcer voice...fulfilling his life long dream of playing in a sports arena. The main floor seating was filled, and there were about 30 people seated in the stands...truly hilarious for us to play there. By the way, our instruments weren't even amplified! Oh, and we even had paparazzi, in the form of a woman snapping pictures of us all over the venue speaking with different people (although she was using a disposable camera...not quite a pro paparazzo)
