Royal Street Serenade

FQJ's Hunkering Down blog

Neighbors waving up to Tim Laughlin, who's playing clarinet on his Royal Street balcony.

​A short video: Toward the end of our Sunday evening dog walk, the sound of a clarinet pulled us off our usual route and up to the 800 block of Royal Street. Noted musician Tim Laughlin was playing on his balcony. As I watched, four other residents of the building came out and stood on the street to listen to their neighbor (they're out of the frame on the right, standing well apart from each other). Laughlin teases them at the end - "It's the first time I've ever emptied a building!" Feeling fortunate to have captured the moment.
