yelling pickle myself it’s a lot of rules and regulations at any time it’s really hard for me because i’m more of a spontaneous performer oh you got that yodeling pickle nailed though yeah i do i’m a spontaneous performer and so it’s really hard for me to follow direction anyway speaking of performances is that a transition or what that’s a great transition yeah good job here to talk about the elks theater the alex is back baby we are having the time of our lives the elk theater is a lovely very old-fashioned theater historic historic beautiful right near the square of downtown prescott and for the past two years because of covet no shows nothing it’s been very very sad yeah um but recently they reopened to the mass crowd and we were so excited to be one of the first ones to attend uh cover band called tapestry uh that covers carol king and we had the time of our lives it was amazing and so the the old-fashioned theater opened up every city it was sold out folks sold out shows so that was so the elks theater has uh well i’ve been to two venues i think there might be others there’s a there’s what they call the crystal room which is on the third floor and that’s relatively small it’s like a small bank smaller more intimate more intimate yeah a more intimate music experience so they’ve they’ve been having uh performances there for a while uh it was completely shut down four times and they started doing the crystal room i guess you know there was a limit on the number of people like that i i don’t know uh but you know it became a regular thing the crystal room yeah um it wasn’t until tapestry yeah that they opened the big theater now the big theater is big it’s big uh they opened the whole thing and i think it was it was backed i mean people it was packed we were so excited to rejoin the the wonderful world that was oh yeah before covid and um what was really great was uh when you go to see a show at the elks they kind of have little mini dance floors so couples can get up and dance as the cover bands play and i don’t know who that couple was but you were amazing it just made my heart just so full um i was just so happy to see this couple i mean they were amazing they were good right they were part of the show i thought so too i mean i don’t know who they were but they were amazing they were just a regular couple here to see the show they’ve got to dance and be like moving dancing i mean who doesn’t love her okay i mean my kids grew up on listening to um yeah beautiful beautiful yeah cheers to that i listened to it it’s a great song by the way

the smaller venues so now they book events that are more appropriate for the smaller room they’ll book there and performances that are made for a bigger space downstairs so that they put a jazz series in and it’s been very well entered attended and oh my god it’s been so amazing amazing uh it’s just astounding yeah so it’s a wonderful close-up venue uh so we’ve been doing the jazz series it’s perfect for jazz uh really looking forward to the one next month they’re going to do um the latin the latin style so i’m really looking forward to that so i mean it just it really opened things up a
