Ingram educates... Ingramcation?
Jack Ingram will have 30 sets of young eyes watching during the sound check before his concert in Lubbock, Tex., next Monday.
As part of a Grammy in the Schools event, a group of high school students will get to watch Jack prepare for his show and then participate in a Q&A, meet-and-greet and autograph session with him before attending his concert later that evening.
Jack says he's proud to be part of the program. "Since so much music education has been taken out of public schools lately, it's nice to have an opportunity to expose kids to an entire industry that they probably only know through television." he says. "When I was growing up, I was lucky enough to have parents who took me to live shows a lot, and for some of these kids, this may be one of the first chances they have to see live music."
Maybe if we disguise ourselves as children we can go to?
