Regina and Beverly were sisters, separated by only 20 months, and best friends from the time of their earliest memories. Their parents loved music of all types, but Regina and Beverly were especially enamored by R&B, laughing quietly at the irony of that abbreviation. As they grew older, they envisioned careers performing with their favorite artists. But, alas, neither Regina nor Beverly could sing. Oh, they tried, but almost everyone agreed that they should choose a different career path. Not deterred by lack of singing ability, they entered the R&B scene, partying with all their favorites, staying on the road for weeks following tours, and generally having a very, very good time, especially after they discovered that they could make a lot of money by helping performers manage their finances. So it was that Regina and Beverly spent many years, had many good times (some of which they even remembered!), and made a small fortune being close to what they love. And, now in retirement you can find them still enjoying R&B music ........... but beware if you encounter them on karaoke night at the senior center, because they still can not sing!
