Susan in Oakland wondered: >Is there anything weird about the fact that Ferron moves to Philadelphia and >Susan leaves? It's the Law of Conservation Of Folk Singers. Equilibrium must be maintained, or the earth will tilt slightly in one direction or the other. woj reviewed: >it got more amusing during vance's set, of course. as usual, he was >totally out of control. at one point, he parodied susan's "maybe if i >sang cole porter", but i don't recall, off-hand, what the parody title >was. i want to say "maybe if i sang stevie wonder" or something like >that. "Maybe If I Sang Some Gershwin", I believe. Susan had been outside and came into the hall after he'd finished that, and when I told her what she'd missed I think that's when she decided to head back up to the stage and take some revenge. ;) >later on in his set, susan surprised him by walking on stage >in he middle of one of his songs and sang...something. meredith? He was channeling Ella Fitzgerald, and she was channeling Louis Armstrong, but I was laughing so hard I have no clue what it was they actually sang. >susan also joined vance for his >encore. again, i forget which song they did, but it was very lovely. Another standard, I believe. You forgot to mention his tangent about how he and Susan have a love child, and Susan's mom hates it because she just can't do *anything* with the kid's hair. Kris inquired: >Well that's cool. Is this permanent, or just for a few shows? She's back for good, I think, after a brief leave of absence. I love Jane and I'm glad she's back, but I do have to be truthful and say I'm also kinda bummed because it was fun playing roadie for a while! +==========================================================================+ | Meredith Tarr meth@smoe.org | | New Haven, CT USA http://www.smoe.org/~meth | +==========================================================================+ | "things are more beautiful when they're obscure" -- veda hille | | *** TRAJECTORY, the Veda Hille mailing list: *** | | *** http://www.smoe.org/meth/trajectory.html *** | +==========================================================================+ HELP! owner-believers@smoe.org Send mail to believers@smoe.org Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 16 Dec 2000 14:14:38 -0500 From: "J.

I have a vague sense (which means it's probably wrong) that it was "What a Wonderful World" (if that's the correct title). But wasn't he channelling Billie Holiday rather than Ella?
