By now I guess you heard about the terrible shooting in a school at Newtown, CT. What the hell is wrong with people? If you didn't hear some gun men went into a school in a location where it has been reported that the town is one where people don't lock their doors until at night. Real sad! So far 27 people are dead including one of the gun men. This was supposed to happen at 9:40 this morning. 18 kids in the school so far are dead along with the principle. The school is Sandy Hook School. Just wanted to know if you'll be taking a moment of silence tonight at a gig you're working for the victums and their families? I might. I really think I will before I begin to play.

Itis a terrible thing that happened but people go out to bars to forget their problems and have fun. I would not bring this up during the night tonight. Besides being a sad and horrifc situation but it will then start arguments dealing with politics which never ends well in a bar setting.

I'm not saying anything at my wedding this weekend. Not my place to. When Whitney Houston died I was n the middle of a wedding and when I heard she passed on I played "dance with somebody" with no mention of her death to my crowd. We will be hearing about this tragedy all weekend and I'm sure the media won't be needing my help.

I think here in CT for non-wedding events, it may make sense for a little while .. just my opinion.

I agree with you Steve, if there was a connection to the event I was working at; be it geographical; relative of the event coordinator, bride, groom, etc... I would bring up the idea to them; but, the final decision would certainly be left up to the people who hired me for the event. It is hard to even think about it without getting choked up.
