Donjr: I wish it was closer for you but hey, at least you're getting a chance to see her. She is truly amazing. Like I said, she has different arrangements live than what's on her albums. On one song, instead of playing the keys of the piano, she reached inside the piano and started plucking strings! Once while standing at the mike she held something in her hand that was making a "rattling" sound when she shook it, and stomped her high heels onto the wooden stage to keep rhythm while singing some spiritual hymn.....by herself with no band. AMAZING! That's what I want to see and hear when I attend live music: artists that do something different and innovative. I hate when i hear a band and it sounds like I pressed the "play" button at home.
