Hopes for a Friday:
Frazzled nerves and tired bodies will flock downtown in search of sweet release. Liquor will relax sore muscles and beer will melt away stress. Music will spill out into the cold night air and attract the masses searching for a warm retreat. Numb toes will be warmed by dancing and cheers will rise as the music stirs life back into the crowd.
Jackets, scarves and hats will be piled to the side as the temperature climbs along with everyone's spirits. Laughing and revelry will replace groans and sighs. For one evening everyone will forget that there are many months of winter to come and simply enjoy themselves. The crisp air on the walk home will feel invigorating instead of oppressive after a long night of defiance against old man winter.
At the end of the night, after many obliged calls for encores, we will lay down our instruments with satisfaction. Our job was done with the world warmed a bit through music. Smiling faces, breathless dancers and lifted spirits will be our creations. We have fought the good fight against the darkness, the cold and the effects they have on the spirit.
