mirror to a song or play playing the air guitar?

I have been a musician since the day I was born I think. I still do all those things but so do my grown children. When you have the music in you you have to let it shine!!

Of course we all do that. I cannot imagine my life without all of those things.

Hell, I had my best friend make a photo of me singing into my brush while drying my hair when I was about 17. Also, i had a whole carnival barker bit choreographed to Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "Karn Evil 9 (Second Iimpression)" from "Brain Salad Surgery." One night a friend was over and I did it for her.

I played air/prop guitar, keyboard and drums for much of my adult life, and never really cared if anyone was watching. Just another reason my mom thought there was something wrong with me, I suppose. But, man, this kid was born for the stage.
