They said we couldn’t take pics at #Tedxyerevan, but they didn’t say we couldn’t record audio. This is an exceprt from the cultural presented by a musical group consisting of 8 young Armenian boys. I didn’t catch the great wind instrument solo.

I’ve been having trouble waking up early as of late, so I’m attempting to solve the problem by making this my alarm song — “The Ballad of Davy Crockett” I know its not the most politically correct song in the world, with lines like the following.

He give his word and he give his hand
That his Injun friends could keep their land
And the rest of his life he took the stand
That justice was due every redskin band.
Davy, Davy Crockett, Holdin’ his promise dear!

From the full version

But there is nothing more motivating than waking up to the story of a man who “killed him a ‘bar’ when he was only 3”. What have I been doing with myself this whole time? I have to get it together and get out of bed!
