Name that Tune

Friday's at the office are great.  Some are greater than others.  Some are hilarious.  Some are just slow and boring.  Today was a mixture.

I went into the committee meeting today where all the counselors make decisions on appeals (like for track changes).  Let me tell you, committee meeting has got to be the funniest thing ever.  Unless you've been in a committee meeting, you wouldn't believe the stuff that is said.  Not about students or anything related to what we're supposed to be talking about...just random stuff.  I could write a non-fiction book and everyone would think it was fiction.  It's that funny.

Well today there were only two appeals and I guess no one wanted to go back to work so we stayed and played "name-that-tune."  I.completely.fail.  Reason #1) They were picking songs from the 80s and 90s.  Reason #2) Even if they picked recent songs, I never listen to music and wouldn't know those either.  Case and point: They played Party Rock Anthem.  Didn't recognize it until quite a ways into the song.

HOWEVER, I did get ONE song (title AND artist) right off the bat before everyone else.  Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne.  You wouldn't believe the looks I got for knowing that song and that song only.  Thank you high school football game band music.

ThePianoGuys

Thursday I ditched work 20 minutes early and headed to the other side of campus for an amazing concert by ThePianoGuys! aka Jon Schmidt (piano) and Steven Sharp Nelson (cello).  They were AMAZING.  One of the best concerts I've been to in the three years I've been here.

In case you haven't heard/ seen what these guys do, here are a few favorites from youtube... (okay, I started just putting up every one they have because I've decided I just love them all!  So watch these and then go watch the rest!!)
