Today, I was able to have a photo taken with Mr. Jose Mari Chan and his children. Great family, great kids and great singers.
It started off when I was doing a solo performance at Mykonos outlet. A young man approached the bar to where I was playing and was singing along, harmonizing to the song I was playing. Then, a young lady followed and there were three harmonizing voices already. It was great to hear them. I asked the young lady (Lisa) if they were singers too, because they were so good. She told me they were the children of Jose Mari Chan. My first reaction was OMG!
Mr. Jose Mari Chan came in the dining hall and the young man (I thinks his name is Michael) called his dad and introduced me to him. Wow, what a moment! Then they requested songs from The Eagles, Crosby, Stills and Nash while they were waiting for their meals to arrive and all were singing along.

Their meals arrived and so I carried on entertaining. Requests from their table still continued. Then about an hour later, Mr. JMC asked me if I was ready to take a break. He asked me to join them at their table. Mr. JMC suggested that I sing some of his songs because his songs would suit my voice well.
My short break was up so I had to excuse myself. Mr. JMC asked for my contact details so he could send his CDs to me so I could practice songs off them. True to his word, he sent me 9 CDs through the mail.

Before they left, they sang their last song Blue World by the Four Freshmen. Astig!
