…Every time I pass a Walgreens or CVS, I remember how I used to pace down the candy aisle while my dad chose photos to print out of all our family pictures saved on a chunky, silver 2010 digital camera. It was a monthly occurrence because of the hundreds of photos that would pile up on his SD card. My dad always carried the camera with him, only letting go of it when he’d set it on the nightstand to sleep. In addition to birthdays, wedd...…

Dedicated to the victims of Sept. 11, 2001, the band performed an arrangement celebrating New York City and the rich American musical tradition, all the while decked out in colored LED lights. For their last song, J.P....…
