A few weeks ago, my friend Michael’s (aka The Fog) band was in town, well, Nevada City anyway. Jeff and I are big live music fans and now that our girls are getting older, we have made a commitment to get them out as much as we can to experience it. The Wiyos (www.thewiyos.com) are fantastic. The North Columbia Schoolhouse was a great venue. We had so much fun with their animated and innovative blend of music. It was great walking backstage and surprising Michael before the show, who had no idea we were coming. It had been maybe 8 years since I had last seen him! Jaz is even inspired to create a “crazy” percussion rig as her year-end invention in her third grade class. She has to apply for a patent from her teacher so hopefully Mike will be cool with it! Quality live music grabs us all and inspires us no matter what the age. These guys are that good. Go check them out….you’ll leave with a big smile and a little jig in your step:)
