Performance

For his senior project, Trey decided to make a CD of him playing the guitar and singing -- including composing some of the songs. The word got out and he was asked to perform one of his original compositions at an event at the high school called "Tattoo Coffeehouse." Tattoo is the name of a book the school produces each year with the collected works of students -- poetry, short story, art, etc. The "Coffeehouse" night is when they invite students to perform their original work. Sort of like an open mic night at a coffeehouse, with poetry readings interspersed with music.

Our recording of his performance is below. Not bad for the kid who hid behind the pulpit the first few times he was asked to speak in primary and wouldn't give his talk because he was so embarrassed to speak in front of people.

One other piece of background. Trey wrote this song after watching the movie "Up." Those who have watched the movie I think will see the connection -- if you can pick up on the words. Sorry for the bad recording. All I had was my camera. I promise better recordings in the future.
