Absolutely fabulous performance and one of the most enjoyable concerts in a while. Sound was superb!

Few concerts are mixed at a reasonable level that don't require hearing protection. This...was like listening to my SDA's with thousands of people in the room...but BETTER! Nuances of the instruments and fade out disappeared into infinity...you could hear a pin drop. Only other time I've experienced this is with George Winston (seen multiple times) and he actually asks his audience to hold their applause until the final note plays out.

Band was very tight and Diana appeared to enjoy herself (her Aunt in the audience). She's obviously chosen her members wisely. A few of the songs were a wee bit free-form Jazz and I can't say I always "get it", however, this was one of those times it "clicked" for me. There are great performers, great bands and great performances. Last night I was in the presence of greatness. Can only think of a few living names close to her. She's at the top of her game.
