A couple of weeks ago, I was sitting in my living room watching Dancing with the Stars.  I kept hearing this weird noise, but figured it was the song on the TV the stars were dancing too.  But the song ended and the show cut to commercial, and I still heard the noise.  I muted my TV, and the noise became louder and worse.  I ran upstairs to check on my cat and dog, they were both fine.  I then started checking out my whole condo, terrified of what could be happening.
I heard some neighborhood dogs start barking, so I figured the noise was coming from outside.  I peeked cautiously out the front blinds, and then I saw it.
Grapefruit Lady had set up a director's chair on the front porch and was singing.  To the neighborhood.  At 8:30pm.  On a Tuesday evening. 
I immediately ran upstairs to my guest room to see if I could get a better visual.  I could not, because trust me, there would be a picture on this site if I could have.  I can't tell if she sings in English or Portuguese.  And I definitely could NOT tell what song she was singing.  For someone who "recorded an album", it was pretty damn bad.  I mean, I thought my animals were in danger.
She set the chair up again the next night, but the concert was rained out.  I haven't heard her sing again, but I like to think it will be a nightly summertime event.  One can hope.
