(1502) MUSIC AND ME (Feb. 08, 2018) $10.00 TIP FROM JASON; $15.00 FROM 2 PALAUAN LADIES ON DEC. 20, 2017


$10.00 TIP FROM JASON;
$15.00 FROM 2
PALAUAN LADIES ON
DEC. 20, 2017




Jason has been a regular guest at Image Restaurant where I worked for 13 years (1992-2004). He likes to sing karaoke there where the mics don't have echo so you really hear your own voice unlike in almost all of the karaoke bars in Palau that too much echo ruined the sound of original voices of those who are singing.

I remember one night that there are no other guests except Jason and me helping him choose other songs that he hadn't tried yet. When I am singing occasionally, he's got time to rest. When I sing the song "Everything I Own" by Bread, he was impressed during the falsetto part of bridge of the song.

More than 20 years since that time, we still greet each other. Five days before Christmas 2017, he brought his daughter to me. I can't resist to take photos of him and the very cute baby which looks like American girl. Later, Jason gave me $10.00 tip while 2 Palauan ladies requested some Palauan songs. They know that I can sing Palauan songs. One of them gave me $10.00 tip as well while the other--$5.00.
