A gig in which I help students pass their midterm exams

Minnesota State University, Mankato, is my alma mater. The university has made a lot of great changes since I graduated, my favorite being the addition of their huge fireside room in the student union. So when I was asked to play as a surprise for students in that room on Friday, I jumped at the chance.

The view from where I was sitting.

The fire and the sun streaming in the floor-to-ceiling windows made it nice and toasty in there. Students were milling and talking and laughing, but most were snuggled into the comfy chairs with their laptops or their textbooks, diligently preparing for their midterms.

  

 I like to think the music helped them pass those exams.
