Romantic Music Elicits Proposal at Valentine’s concert!!!

Before this concert at Pacific Lutheran University, I pulled out my camera and snapped a few pictures of the incredible pipe organ in the Lagerquist Hall chapel so. David (Joyner, pianist, arranger, producer of the concert) saw the camera and asked me if I could keep it onstage during the concert because—“You may want to use it during the concert….” I didn’t have much time to to give much thought to this mysterious request, because we started soon after that. David and Doug (Miller, bass) sounded wonderful together in their opening number and then singer Dennis Hastings and I had a blast alternating songs. At the end of the concert, David stepped up to the mic, proposed to his fiancee, ran off the stage into the audience where she was sitting and dropped down on one knee. There were cheers, tears, applause and congratulations all around and this was the absolute highlight of the evening. Hmm, David–how are you going to top this next year?
