Here’s today’s performance at Adira Dance and Costume in San Jose.  The title of this video references the original ‘blooper’ version.  My lovely cameraman, while recording my performance on his phone, turned the instrument sideways, not realizing that the video would go sideways as well.  I guess that’s better than the performance going sideways. 🙂

I was very nervous.  I probably need to find a better way of exiting than my standard ‘tentative bow and scurry off’ method.  I’m thinking Nina Simone‘s Feeling Good might make for lovely exit music, with its bombastic horns and overall va-va-voominess.  Hard choice, though, between her version and the remake by Muse.  (Oh, hey, there’s a Michael Bublé version too.)

I left the original “oops” version of the video up on my youtube channel, so I can feel like a pop star, having the original and then a “remixed” version.  Enjoy!
