What a nice detailed report,thank you! I saw her in Cincinnati, last Sunday, a week ago and I'm heading to Louisville,Kentucky tomorrow morning for an overnight and will see her again at the the historic Louisville Palace built c.1924. > >This past Saturday night, I was lucky enough to see Diana Krall at the >Chicago Theater.
>She stuck pretty much to her usual formula of old standards, but her and >her band >were more relaxed then they are on record, and they opened up the songs >incredibly in the process. Absolutely.....she's so much better live. She's quite the sense of humor too. (Dry wit) >to try and make things up to him, she played S'wonderful. She then left >the >stage again, and so did about a quarter of the audience! This wasn't the case in Cincinnati.....not a soul left before the house lights came on after the second encore.

Again,I don't know the title. A very melodic song with lyrics..turn down the bed,turn down the lights..... >Then, as I turned to leave, I remembered about the Live in Paris DVD. I >picked it up, and turned it over, and there it was - Song number 17 - A >Case >of You! The final song on the DVD. I'm so glad I have this. I've enjoyed watching it now two or three times with family and friends. ACOY...what a treat! I'll let you know if she does ACOY in Louisville.
