After School Rock... rocks!!!

My friend Ian runs a great music program for kids... lessons, workshops, recording programs, called The Vaults. You can read a news article about it here.

Anyway, one aspect of the program is called After School Rock, where kids of all ages get to learn to be in a rock band. You've seen School of Rock with Jack Black, right? Same deal.

Well, a couple weeks back, the kids didn't just learn about being a rock band, they were rock bands. For a night.

The folks at Skylight Coffee hosted the performance of three of After School Rock's bands. It was a good time, I've not seen so many smiles on adult faces in so long. Heck, I was proud of these kids and I hadn't even met them before!

A quick group photo before the big show:

Awesome.
