Incredible Performance
by Drew on 6/8/24Five Flags Center - DubuqueGuess I've become a Glenn Miller Groupie. This is the fifth of their concerts I have attended. Most in Iowa but drove to the one in Ft. Worth, Texas in February of 2023 to take my Brother and his Wife to the concert. Each performance was exquisitely executed. The music never gets old. The first concert I attended I took my 91 year old Mother-In-Law; who had danced to Glenn Miller at the Val-Air Ballroom in Des Moines, Iowa before the War. She passed away a few months later. I was asked to speak about her at her funeral. All five of her daughters were in the front pew of the church. I told them I had had an opportunity to do something they never would-I had gotten to watch their mother turn 17. It is one of my most favorite "snap shot recollections". Thanks, so very much, for keeping the Miller Sound alive.
