America Sings - the songs of Pete Seeger


Waterfront Gallery, Laura Ball & Friends, Charleston, S.C.
And everyone sang! So often you go to concerts of popular music and watch your seatmates quietly mouthing the words to the song. Not this evening! I went to Laura Ball's America Sings - the songs of Pete Seeger at the Waterfront Gallery. It was packed, seats full, standing group at the back, kids and parents on the floor. Laura Ball invited everyone to join in the familiar songs and they did! I didn't know how many Pete Seegar songs I knew.

What a fun night! We stopped for a bite to eat at Bull St. Gourmet. It is a perfect Charleston evening. More just like this one please!
