I saw many open jaws when they performed. Judging from the big smiles and
glassy eyes, I think some people enjoyed an endorphin rush watching them.
Speaking of funny comments by Grace brought my attention to the guy who
did standup periodically. I don't know his name, but he kept the place
laughing and the energy up every time he had the microphone.
The opening show routine by all the pros was a fun act to watch. It did a
good job of jump-starting the event to a high energy level.
Were you at the Thursday night dance? It was held in a huge, modern atrium
across from the hotel. It's a welcome added feature of the event.
