Hello everyone.
I wasn't quite sure where to post this, so I'll put it here for now. I want to tell everyone about this great concert I went to the other night.
Some of you may of heard of a band called Barachois. I doubt anyone has, so I'll tell you who they were. They were an Acadian band from PEI that was together for many years. A few years ago, they decided to call it quits. I went to their final show. It was quite good, and I was sad that I wouldn't get to hear them play together as a band again. The best part of the show, I remember, was the two men of the group-Chuck and Albert Arsenault. Not only were they extremely gifted on several different instruments, but they were funny as well. They told some very amusing stories, and their facial expressions were priceless.
Just last year, the two of them teamed up and created their own show called "Chuck and Albert-C'est What?". I wanted to see it so bad, but unfortunately, I didn't get the chance. Monday night however, I finally got my chance to see them. What a performance. Half of the show was them performing Acadian tunes, the other half was them performing hilarious, original skits. I won't get into too much detail, but I encourage everyone to check out this link:

Watch the videos-they're really good!
After the show, I decided to get their autographs. A teacher of mine was volunteering at the show, and she knows both of them, so she introduced me to them . They were so nice. When I bravely asked them to take a picture with me, they didn't hesitate for a second. Chuck even gave me a hug as I was leaving .
It was so amazing. They're touring around the country quite a bit in the next year. If anyone ever gets a chance to see them in concert, DO IT. It's worth it. I hope you guys enjoy the videos. Here are the great pictures
Albert, me, Chuck
Chuck wanted this picture . Everyone in the lobby was laughing (including the people behind us...you can tell ) and I had no idea why...until I saw the picture
Cheers,
Ginny
