These pics are old but for a while in March and April (with Thomas performing two or three times a week, our semester (and all that entails) coming to a close, and Frederick going to school field trips (or not, depending on the destination) as his teachers dreamed up any excuse to skip class) we didn't have time to do anything but move people around. For the FYSO's last performance the conductor, Davin, asked Thomas to conduct Lord of the Dance. Of course he didn't tell me that he was asked to do this--I only saw something was up when he didn't climb into the seat of the drum set but was backstage twitching nervously as everyone else was tuning and settling in for another performance.
There is the conductor at the back, taking over one of the lighter percussion jobs since the other percussionists were shuffled about to fill in for Thomas on the drum set.
I asked him afterwards why he was asked to do that. He said, "I don't know." Did he enjoy it? "Yeah, I guess." There you have it.
