What They Are Saying

Many thanks for your excellent performance last evening in The Midnight Sun Lounge . . . It was certainly a polished performance and it was a pleasure to listen to your playing and vocalizing. The reaction of the audience was evidence that the evening was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

... What an enjoyable evening - you are so good at sharing your stage with singers and making it seem like you have been playing together for a long time. Your expertise and years of singing always shines thru and highlights the great talent you display every time you see (sic) behind the piano. Great song selections - my favorite was September Song. It was a fun nite !!!

What a delightful program, once again.  We sure do enjoy your once-a-month concerts.  Looks like MORE AND MORE other folks do too – last night every seat was taken.

Well my friend that came with me texted to say she had "Night and Day" stuck in her head and was humming it all day after hearing you sing it. This is who I go see bands like Pearl Jam with....I even felt the need to ask her if she knew what Phantom of the Opera was....you made a lasting impression and opened eyes ( and ears!) to something completely off her radar!

Good Day Karen, Thank you for the "Pennies From Heaven", it makes the world smile inside! You & Glen are amazing, the setting and Dave's special effects made us feel like we were at a nightclub reminiscent of the 40's & 50's! What a great show; these songs are timeless! Thank you, XX's & OO's

Karen:  THANK YOU for yet another delightful Evening With Karen.  David and I so much enjoy your events.  What  HOOT, having you explain how we met at the Patsy Cline show.  How lucky we were that night.  In the lobby as we were leaving, Jerome from Palm Springs was heading for the head.  I told him San Diegans call summer visitors from Arizona “Zonies.”  I said I will call him a “Palmie.”  He laughed and said YES – I LIKE IT.
 
I told the gal who was with Gaetano that my grandmother’s name was Gaetana.  She died one week before I was born.  My aunts pressured my folks to name me Gaetana.  My mother, whose parents were from Prague, said NO WAY.  Back then it was “Be American.”  So I got named Lois.  Gaetana would have been so much more INTERESTING.  Keep Kewl...
