Oh I'd bet he'd rather you do it on this list instead. Come on; lighten up. Wit? No doubt. Rapier? Perhaps direct, and even sharp. But rapier? And to a member of the audience? I think you don't get it, nor her. I guess we all can read a bit of ourselves into the performer without too much effort. Christopher, I'd ask for the dedication if you still feel like it after the public lashing. Pass a note to Jane or Susan before the show but don't be disappointed if she turns you down. She's a great person (Susan that is, and Jane too) and performer but she does sometimes get wound-up before/during shows so a request might throw her off. If you can pick a song or two to go with the request, or give her an idea at least, all the better. (I assume you aren't asking for a specific song because you don't want to presume she should sing what you want her to sing.) On the other hand, if she gets wind of the bites taken out of you on this list, she will likely offer the dedication without needing to be asked.

Well, the only thing I've been able to predict about Susan is that she's unpredictable. Having said that, my guess would be "no" - her shows are pretty sophisticated and a dedication would just sound a little awkward. If you did talk her into it, there's no telling _what_ could happen (e.g. she might drag YOU up on stage and make YOU sing the dedication). Remember she's there to entertain the audience, not one person. I think your heart is in the right place, you just need a little different plan. Why don't you get her to autograph a CD jacket for your girlfriend? I'm sure she would be happy to do that, it's something that will last, and a talking to Susan one-on-one is an extremely pleasant experience. (The interest and warmth she shows in autograph sessions is just stunning.) Enjoy the show!
