wonderful evening for our members!
Instructions for Viewing of SlideShow: click
on the following link above, this will open the Slide Show in a new window
utilizing FLASH player. There are 191 images to download, and this may
take up to 5 minutes on a 28.8 baud modem connection.
To reduce the SlideShow loading time I have
included only the 191 images from this past season, minus the accompanying
music. So, feel free to play your own MP3 right along to the show (7
min 20 sec)... Some suggestions are EVE6 - Here's to the Night... The
VERVE - Bittersweet Symphony... or NIRVANA - Smells Like Teen Spirit...
Enjoy!
