Music competition: My son won 2 gold medals with his JP6 :)

Yesterday was the Allard Music Festival in Joliette, Qc, where my son played a solo song of his choice (a shortened version of Glasgow Kiss), and a second one that he had to pick amongst 3 tracks. He had a choice between Rush's YYZ, Pink Floyd's Hey You, and Eric Clapton's Tears In Heaven. He chose YYZ.

So he played both tracks in front of 2 judges and scored over 95% on both, earning him 2 gold medals with honorable mentions!

Do I need to tell you guys I'm very proud of him?

I recorded the performances (of course) and here they are!

YYZ:

Do you want me to say how using software makes me less impressed?!

JK. I saw that thread on the JP forum. Ridiculous.

Awesome! Your son deserves it. MAD skills! Not only that, but playing infront of ANYONE takes some serious mojo.
