Rich Graduation Party-May 23rd, 2009
May 26th, 2009
Leyla and Amir threw themselves a graduation party this past Saturday at their parent’s house in Benson, NC. I did Leyla’s wedding at the Cardinal Club in 2006 so naturally she called me for her party. She booked me about a year ago in order to insure they got me personally. Well, guess what? She calls me the week before the party and says “I don’t think I’m going to be there”! I was like “WHAT?”. She is very pregnant and about to have a baby any day. Heck, by now, she may have already had it! In any case, the party was to go on. I arrived and their family and friends were all hanging out cooking and enjoying the summer day. I got set up and played a ton of great summer songs. After everyone ate, a guest brought up a CD with Persian music on it and that got the party started! By the end of the night, it was mostly Amir’s friends hanging out, drinking and playing beer pong! Of course at that point, I ripped into my hip hop and Top 40 set. Everyone had a great time and I was glad to have an easy gig instead of a complex wedding on a Saturday night!
