When we were in Idaho Falls we went to see my dads band play at the 1968 Rigby High School Reunion. They were singing a bunch of songs and my dad told me the night before that he was going to have me sing. I basically threatened his life if he tried. Well he didn't try at all, he had Mike Toombs one of the other band members ask me to come onto the stage for a minute. I tried to avoid him until they MADE ME go up there. We sang "My Baby Does The Hanky Panky" and Brian (thank goodness!!!) helped me out a lot. I kept getting further away from the mic because I was so scared and my dad would push my head back into it. I was so nervous as you can tell with my hands in my pockets.
So I loosened up a little towards the end and from this picture I've realized that I will no longer be dancing in public unless it's a comedy show and I need to make people laugh at me! I had a lot of fun so thanks Dad, even though I did not at all want to get up in front of a bunch of people.
