hi bree,
what a lovely, lovely moment you had with diana! you and kakki, and not just a few other jmdlers seem to have a special knack for fine moments with diana, joni, others... mine was spending an afternoon with john hammond jr., playing darts with him, visiting, exchanging presents and invitations...listening to him describe when he went out with joni, sometime after her split with chuck...john said, 'she was a truly wonderful lady in every respect'...and that's coming from one of the finest gentlemen in the music business... joni, john hammond jr, and diana krall have all played with the best in jazz and blues...good reason for their warm humanity... cheers, shane -------Original Message------- From: Bree Mcdonough Date: Friday, March 22, 2002 1:16:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: on diana krall & joni's managers Have you seen D.K. perform live Kakki? Her enthusiasm for what she is doing up on stage is just so infectious. >The article noted that two of Peggy's biggest fans are >k.d. lang and Diana. She spoke of Peggy Lee quite a bit the other night,obviously in awe of her. And lamented that she never got to meet her. She told the audience,"You know she died not too long ago".... you could really feel the sorrow in her voice. > I am very happy for her success having read of many, >including Joni, praising her for being a truly nice person. Her niceness really came through. Not a bit uppity. She was really thrilled that *we* came to see her. And when I gave her the roses her expression was like.......Shit, for me!! Genuinely humble!! This woman amazes me. My friend, Andre, is going to bring his new little video recording device with him when we see her next Tuesday in Louisville,Ky. I told him if you get caught,I'll say I don't know you. lol Bree _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com
