Kris played for my venue Saturday night. Pre-sales had gotten to the point that I thought a crowd of 50 was at least a possibility -- and I would have gladly signed a deal for a guarantee of that right up until a few minutes before showtime -- even after we'd opened the doors and people were arriving. By the time she took the stage 12 minutes past the scheduled start, we'd had to delay the start -- because a crowd of 89 paid had arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There were actually a few more in the house, due to the presence of a few reporters I've been hoping to get to come to see what I'm doing, in the hopes of generating some coverage for my concerts, as well as a woman who has come to every show I've presented, and who I thanked recently by presenting her with a free pass for the month of May. Kris was excellent, the crowd loved her and one of the reporters sent me an email late Saturday night that said "Carey -- thanks very much for granting access to the show tonight. You put on a first class production, and Delmhorst was better than even you indicated she would be. Next tiime around, I will write something for her. Great, great talent. Thanks for putting these shows together." Kris and her manager Lisa were great to deal with, as I knew from past meetings they would be. I can only hope they felt the same way about me, and will play for me the next time they're coming this way. - -- Carey Driscoll http://www.AcousticMusicSanDiego.com 1205 Buena Vista Avenue Spring Valley CA 91977 Phone: (619) 303-8176 To Subscribe to the concert mailing list, click this link mailto:acousticmusicsandiego-subscribe@yahoogroups.com and then SEND the email " Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
