I saw her perform at Axpona in Chicago about five years ago.  It was held in a hotel ballroom.  A weird show as there were no seats, standing only.  My one buddy paid to get in while me and the other buddy sat outside the ballroom in the perimeter.  We had nice seats and could hear the concert perfectly.  The show was nothing to write home about.  The band was good but her vocals didn't resonate with me like her records or SACDs.  I would see her again.

I'm hoping that the setting will get her more into the record level of performance. At worst it will be a nice evening with my wonderful wife.

Yeah, EmperorNorton, you are!
