I'm thinking 
we could piggy-back the following Gala, to do an open-mic, that way we don't have to organize so much? Please check this out.

Could be a "golden opportunity" haha 
to play music for a good cause!
-------
By chance I invited Sis. Cecilia over for dinner, the day before she had arranged for us to go on a Official Business Tour to the US Capitol. I'm ashamed to say, 30+ years living in the States, I haven't even set foot in the US Capitol! She gave us a tour and told me all these things she did and I was amazed (one of which was standing up at the same podium as President Bush, where he adressed the Nation, at the House of Representatives in the US Capitol, to give a prayer!)
So I talked w/ her a little...A petite, young person with a vibrant, fascinating personality, she later told me she's the founder of Vietnam Dream For Success, which goals are to focus on education for poor children, all denominations and background. You can read more on her page.
She only recently moved here from Houston, just 2 months, she doesn't know a whole lot of people. I asked her if she had made any commitment about the "music show" and she said someone recommended Karaoke, and she could pay a few hundred dollars to hire him. I asked how she would feel if I bring my "gang" over, that would save her some, and she was totally surprised. She had no idea I have a gang of musicians who's willing to not only play for fun, but for good causes. So her face lit up, and asked if we could play both Viet AND English songs? Since there would be Americans. I said yes of course, she asked if we could sing music about our homeland (not sappy sad, depressing love songs) and I said, yes of course, we're cool! 
I've already committed myself, my sis, and my bro Hai. 
What can I say, I have a big heart and I love to play music!
