Vinyl Cafe

We are a CBC family, generally we listen it in the car, and download pod casts for the shows we miss. A favorite of the whole family is the Vinyl Cafe, thus went we mentioned to Maya that Stuart McLean was coming to the area she really wanted to go to the show.
Really fun show, Reed Jamison was the musical guest. Two new Dave and Morley stories were read, along with the older toaster story.
The highlight of the show- well at least for us, was when the youngest audience member was asked to come forward which was Maya! (except for a one year old which didn't count). So our incredibly timid, shy child left us and went down the steps and all the way up on the stage alone to claim her prize. Stuart had her up for a couple of minutes and asked her to guess an age for the oldest audience member and she was too shy to answer.
We asked her afterwards if she was scared, and the said "no, it was like when she was on the stage at church but there was a lot more people."
Stuart and John Sheard the piano player mentioned afterwards that they were very impressed with her.
All in a all we had a great time, both on our own, and vicariously through Maya.
