Spot Reporter Bailey on the final performance in Perry

Hi! It's me again, Bailey, the SPOT reporter for Perry. Oh, my gosh! The performance last night was spectacular! David and Daniel were excellent! Out of the whole tour, I only heard David tell two stories twice.

Some of the stories David told were the turtle story, a true story about him and his uncle, and a story about Juan Bo-Bo. There were singing parts in some of the stories, and he would ask for the girls to sing, then the boys, then the adults. During lots of the stories, he would say a word in Spanish, and ask if anyone knew what that word meant. They would answer correctly, and he would make all these comments, saying, "He hits it left and right, he makes a home run!" meaning that the kids could speak Spanish and English. After David went back to his stories, you could see the kids beaming!

When David asked for questions, lots of kids asked for stories they had already heard, and wanted to hear again. David kept looking back at Daniel, asking, "Is that too long? Can we do that one?" One kid asked, "Can Daniel talk?" Daniel gave a short "Meow".

At the very end, everyone ran out to buy the CD's and DVD's that David and Daniel were selling. Daniel stayed on stage for a couple of minutes afterwards, and there was a big crowd of kids wanting to ask him questions. I think the show was a big hit. David and Daniel were funny, kind, enthusiastic, and like a lot of kids said, just plain cool!
