The Big Mardi Gras concert with Paps and The Locals!! 10/07/2011

Paps band, 'The Locals', played the Winchester Mardi Gras this year!  I don't remember exactly what Paps said to Darian a couple weeks prior to the show, but Darian talked about the concert constantly!  He had to "practice on his stage for his concert with Paps"!  Everything with a raised platform became a stage...the Treadmill, store displays, the front porch!  It was really cute.  He was so excited!  He kept saying, "Daddy, are you going to hear me through the speaker?"  We didn't actually think he would get up on stage.  Despite his pretty outgoing personality, he tends to get a little shy around big groups or people he doesn't know.  As you'll see, he did put on quite a performance!  He's our little ROCK STAR!!

 Making sure Dave's drums are tuned and sounding good before the show!
 Classic rock drummer face!
 He's a natural!
 He has to really reach for the cymbols! :)
 1,2,3,4....
 Sound check before the show!
 "Hey soundman...give me a little more in my monitor please!"

 I think he was yelling at the security to keep the groupies back from the stage!
 I tried to get him to look at the camera, but he wouldn't take his eyes off his Paps on the stage!


 Dee and cousin Randy

 Baby Randy wanted an autograph!
 The boys dancin and rockin their beads!

 Still won't take his eyes off the stage!

 He got up on stage with the Ukelele for the last few songs!!
 He sure looks pretty comfortable up there!
 Larry's grandaughter came up to rock the harmonica!!
 Love the shirt!
 Harmonizing?
 I think he took a Uke solo here...
 Rock star guitar face!!!
 Letting loose!!


He is still talking about "HIS" concert!!  LOL!!  He is really concerned that Paps broke his guitar too.  We had to explain to him that Kim broke a string on his guitar, and that he used Paps' for a couple songs while his was being fixed.  Pap's guitar is fine. :)
