As part of Eureka College's homecoming week Dena and I checked out the free concert of American English, a Beatles tribute band that knows its stuff:

I was surprised to see such a mix of ages there, little kids dancing with glow sticks and grandparents doing a hip shake of their own. At one point during the song "All You Need Is Love" people put their arms around each other and swayed to the music. I gained a little deeper appreciation for their talents too. Watching "George Harrison" riff on the electric guitar was in another world from my strumming chords in the basement. Listening to "Paul McCartney" scream whole verses repeatedly was a humbling reminder of the vast talent out there.
What a trip!
