Another JCC talent shout-out! I joked that after the cruise I was going to just go get everything by any artist whose last name sounded like "grey", because in addition to Jean Grae, there were two really cool singer/songwriters: Brian Gray and his remarkably precocious teenage daughter Zoe Gray.

I heard two songs by Brian: one that made me laugh, and one that made me cry, right there, on the deck of a cruise ship. It stabs me right in one of my biggest fears and twists the knife in a way that hurts but is also inspiring.

Laughing: "Man Crush" http://briangray.bandcamp.com/track/man-crush

Crying: "Just a Dream" http://briangray.bandcamp.com/track/just-a-dream

Then at open mic Zoe got up and did one of the best teenage nerd anthems I've heard, "Castaways":
