Akron

I'm sorry to put you on the spot re the back of your sons' heads. I had to go around with my mobile phone photos today to verify...and I think (but cannot be sure) that the top is Alec, next is Jed (who claims multiple crowns but I can't see them), third is Ethan (sure on this one) and last (with the bit of ear) is Peter.

Akron seems nice. We got on the coach in Cincinnati, travelled for five hours, rehearsed, performed, went to the reception and then bed. Although the programme was the same, the acoustic was utterly different: crisper and more unforgiving...this didn't matter a jot, as the performance was faultless. Mr Nethsigha did 6 encores, which sets a tour record.
