Last night while the men were at the Priesthood session of conference, I went with some friends to see The 5 Browns. If you don't know who they are, they are 5 siblings who all went to Juilliard and they play 5 pianos together. Oh, they're also LDS. Here's a photo:




It was a little pricey, but worth it. They were very good and also pretty entertaining. (Okay, not as entertaining as Paul and Preston playing together, but pretty good.) My personal favorite was "Fantasia on "Dives and Lazarus". Despite the fancy title, it was really "If You Could Hie to Kolob", with a little "Be Still, My Soul" thrown in as a duet at the end. I also liked one that was a homage to Jerry Lee Lewis (great balls of fire!) that was played by one of the boys. He played with his hands, his elbows, and even his feet.

Just think, if you all had practiced a little harder, it could have been The Six Scoresbys and you could be supporting us now (plus paying back all the big-time school loans to go to the Juilliard.)
