We were delighted to meet Ian’s friend Monica when the program was over.
The lighting was a bit strange, so I took the first picture with a flash and this one without a flash. The clarity was sharper in the first one, but I like their expressions on this one.
It was a delightful evening.
Ian looks so very focused as he plays his part in the band! And what a good-looking couple he and his friend make!
Yes, I thought that too – that he really focus’ on his job of playing drums.
