Live entertainment options are increasing every week. This week’s highlights include touring shows by jazz and polka stars and a concert by a Country Music Hall of Fame member.
Jazz: Musician
Aubrey Logan is a double-threat: She’s a jazz trombone player and a peppy vocalist who once earned a golden ticket on “American Idol.” She’s also an eclectic artist who has vamped up Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” with Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox, dropped an aria from “Carmen” onto her debut album and recorded an instrumental version of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” for her upcoming “Standard.”
I have been involved with the Florida High School Mock Trial effort for a few years. My interest began long ago in a far away galaxy called Jacksonville Beach. A member of the Jacksonville Bar Board of Governors put me in touch with a fellow named Ed Lange who taught at the high school there. He was teaching debate and trial skills to teenagers, and had constructed a courtroom in his classroom to facilitate it. I was privileged to get the nickel tour and was inspired by what he was doing. The Florida Law Related Education Association (FLREA) had just begun in 1991.
