DU musicians who've played New Year's Eve gigs... Any special memories of those gigs you'd like to share?

5. Good memories (well, except for the cigarette smoke). And very good music.

The last year and a half of my mom's life, she was in a nursing home, an Alzheimers ward. I bought her a lot of CDs, including big band music, and the staff asked if they could play them in the cafeteria, which doubled as a lounge. I was happy that they were happy with the music. There would occasionally be musicians visiting to entertain the residents, but not very often.
