If you're coming into Penn station, you need to exit the station and walk a block to get the subway. Follow the signs or ask someone, you shouldn't have a problem. See http://www.thevillageunderground.com/directions.shtml Cabs aren't too expensive in NYC, so you could go that way too, but the subway is cheaper.

Vienna's recently signed with Boston-based Virt Records, and asked if I would be willing to put on a houseconcert on Saturday before her Virt Records Showcase at the House of Blues on Sunday. From an outside perspective, 23 year old singer, songwriter and pianist Vienna Teng fits comfortably into the Asian-American stereotype. She began taking piano lessons at age 5, studying classical composers like Bach and Chopin. A straight-A student in high school, she had her choice of Ivy League colleges before eventually deciding on Stanford University. After a two-year stint on the pre-med track, she switched her major to Computer Science. By all appearances, her existence is that of the quintessential brainy Asian-American girl. As with her life, Vienna Teng's music defies any attempt at simplistic classification. Her full-length debut, Waking Hour, reveals a unique intensity in her melodies, brilliant turns of phrase in her lyrics, and a natural instinct for song craftsmanship that is difficult to comprehend given her young age. Her compositions range from simple piano ballads featuring pristine vocals to multi-layered productions with lush landscapes. Waking Hour features explorations into not just pop, folk and rock, but also new age and world beat stylings, reflecting Vienna's admission to being something of a "music geek." The album takes listeners on a ride through the haunting, the ethereal, and the comforting. Most of all, her songs reveal a keen understanding of the magic that lies beneath the surface of the everyday world and how to share that hidden beauty with others through music. Now for the details: Saturday, September 28 2002 Join us at 3:30 for snacks and drinks Performance starts at 4pm Mail jeffw@smoe.org for reservations The suggested donation is at least $10, which all goes to the performer. My house is just 2 blocks away from the Wakefield commuter rail station, and is just a few miles from Route 128, with plenty of on-street parking. If you'd like to read a bit more about Vienna, or listen to mp3s of her wonderful CD "Waking Hour", check out: http://viennateng.com/ http://www.mp3.com/viennateng What is a house concert, you ask? A house concert is a chance to experience music in a warm and intimate environment. It's when someone opens up their home and invites you into their living room to share in a performance by one of their favorite musicians. It's a chance to meet the performers and get them to sign their CD. ------------------------------ End of headline-girl-digest V5 #201 ***********************************
