Finally was able to post about it. We had 5th row center seats, which made our night. Can't remember exactly what she opened with, but she played a few oldies, then played 3 songs in a row off the new album, "Someone for Everyone" 'I Must' and "A gift". Loved watching "I Must" in concert, what a great song! She sounded great, although, when we saw her at the Nokia in May (june?) in Los Angeles, her mic wire fell out of the mic, and again at the Grove, it fell out. She laughed, put it back in and continued. I love seeing the unexpected happen. Not sure if this is just a random thing that happens in the LA area for her or it's happened at other shows :P She also lost her place in "Reward " during the encore. She put her hands on her hips and smiled as she continued, then looked over to the Clarisse sisters, and they just got back on track, giggling at each other. All in all, show was exceptional. I wish we would have stayed after the show as I saw on Facebook, Basia came out to meet her fans. Oh well, it was an awesome show. I first saw her during the Basia on Broadway tour in I think 95, then saw them in 05 when they toured with Matt Biaco. This year I've seen her twice in 6 months. I'm feeling very spoiled. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 Nov 2010 16:48:25 -0600 From: Bev Okin-Larkin Subject: Concert Reviews - San Francisco & Seattle This was very night from last night's gig at Bimbo's http://author2be.wordpress.com/2010/11/20/basia-at-bimbos-in-san-francisco-california-an-author-g-d-grace-concert-review/ and here from Seattle - with pictures from the local paper http://www.soundspike.com/news/article/1083-basia_news_in_pictures_basia_in_seattle.html Enjoy!
