I only informed the artists of this news yesterday, as we ourselves only heard from Danny's manager that afternoon. Yes, it's true that unfortunately Danny won't be able to join us for the benefit show, as Starling dates take priority over his solo stuff for now. He and his manager are very disappointed about it, as are we, but sometimes these things happen. >It will still be a good show... ( an all GIRL show) hmm wondering if >this >phenomenon is getting kinda old now... First of all, it is not a "phenomenon" - we only asked artists that we liked and respected that we knew would support the cause, and it just happened that they were all women except for Danny. We asked several male performers as well, but in the end it was a mostly female lineup simply because that's the way it worked out. Second, not only will the show "still be good", it'll be absolutely wonderful - only one performer dropped out, it's not the end of the world. We'll miss him dreadfully, but we're lucky to have such a large and excellent roster of artists playing that night that it won't really have much impact on the show. We're sorry if anyone was looking forward to seeing Danny in particular - hopefully you'll still join us to see many of his equally talented friends and peers onstage. - - Tab :) ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of navy-soup-digest V3 #122 *******************************
