Caught In The Act

About two weeks ago I was working in the office by myself because everyone left to run errands, attend meetings, or get lunch for themselves. At the time I was packing "thank you swag bags" for the donors who had given money to benefit the non-profit. Since I was alone I figured I could put on a Pandora station to keep me company. I put on a station and songs that I know very well began playing, so I did what any normal person would do and I started singing very loudly. I was alone, singing very loudly, and organizing the bags when I suddenly could feel another presence in the room. I turned around and everyone who works in the office was standing in the doorway watching me sing really loudly and dance around the room. I was speechless. I just stood their like a deer in headlights while everyone laughed and told me that "it happens to the best of us."

I don't mind being embarrassed in front of people I just want to know whether or not they liked my singing.

Tinariwen

One of the bands that performed at the festival was called Tinariwen. They are from the Middle East and perform culturally charged music from the region but with an electric guitar.
