James's Review Of March 17th Show

"The show was GREAT! When I was part of the audience, I too was more reserved than usual; the reasons, I think, were that I knew that the evening was being recorded and didn't want to intrude on the beauty of the songs, and the other confusion was related to the narrative aspect of the cabaret; since it flowed, there wasn't a clear break in the action to indicate an audience response--I didn't want to break the continuity of the narrative (and maybe miss part of the continuing story). It's kind of like at a concert when a song has a long pause in it near the end but you're not sure it's really over, so you wait to see if there's more. Maybe the recording should be done without mention, like a candid photo, and without signs. Just some thoughts!"

Your performance was, AS USUAL, intimate, polished, and "on the money"! Since we see you perform so often I guess we sometimes just assume that you know that's how we feel, and don't say it out loud.

Howls and love,
James
