someday you're going to have to write a book about your experiences... -------Original Message------- From: Kakki Date: Friday, March 22, 2002 12:15:10 AM To: shane; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: on diana krall & joni's managers Thanks for the article, Shane. I think Diana just keeps getting better all the time and I'm knocked out by her "Look of Love." I was just reading the latest Vanity Fair which has a not too flattering but interesting article on the late Peggy Lee and I was struck at the resemblance between the early Peggy and Diana. The article noted that two of Peggy's biggest fans are k.d. lang and Diana. I am very happy for her success having read of many, including Joni, praising her for being a truly nice person. An example mentioned in the Post article is her donating half her proceeds from corporate partnerships to charity. Joni's and Diana's management team are good guys, too. On the second night of the PWWAM taping, I found my assigned seating location from the night before already taken up. (We were supposed to sit in the same place both nights for filming continuity). One of the coordinators told me to quickly sit in another place nearby. During the intermission I was told that I'd taken Sam Feldman's seat and was shown him sitting bleacher-style off to the side. I was just mortified! On my way down the aisle I stopped to apologize to him and he was completely nice and good natured and insisted that I keep his seat. I was very impressed by him and his lack of the usual "Hollywood" attitude that I might have encountered with some one else in his position.
