She was way up tonight, practically stratospheric. She sang hard rock, blues, pop and ballads. She started off wearing a white top and jeans with black leather chaps over them. She had a small band and three back-up singers, two women and one man. She started off saying that her band had played before many other people's fans but she had told them that they hadn't seen anything yet, until they had played before us and saw us in full appreciation mode. She sang at least two of her own compositions, "Down On Your Knees" and "The Cowboy Song". She also sang Janis Joplins' "Take Another Little Piece of my heart", Mary Chapin Carpenter's "Let's Give Them Something To Talk About " and she ended with a song she said was about us-she and us, that it described our relationship perfectly. The song talked about always being there for each other and supporting each other no matter what. As she sang each song, Lucy rocked and rolled, shook her shoulders, bucked her hips and swung her butt as she moved across the entire stage. Lucy was incandescent. Her delight in what she was doing was a fire roaring through the club igniting us all. The excitement and the joy were palpable. Talk about being in the present. If she and we were anymore present, we'd still be there. After a while, she introduced her main back-up singer and went off to change while that woman sang for us. Lucy came back wearing her white with silvery shimmers dress from Duets, which covered about a third or so of her body. As she sang, Renee suddenly came dancing out wearing a blue shimmery dress. She danced along with Lucy as Lucy also danced and sang the song. Lucy thrust the mike at Renee to let her get in a one-syllable oooh and/or ahhh at the end of some of the sentences. Renee participated in one number and then left the stage to Lucy again. My favorite quote of tonight was from a mature gentleman, safely back from the club who stood in the hotel bar with a huge grin on his face, shaking his head and saying, "Someday Lucy is going to give me a heart attack." It struck me that Lucy is like a comet, searing across the sky, trailing many of us in her wake, as we follow wherever she goes and performs. In whatever. Fabulous, fabulous night. And it's going to be offered again tomorrow. Yes! KT ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.
